Questions
What is Kissa?
Kissa: Pixel Café is a cozy idle game for iPhone. A pixel-art cafe lives in a Home Screen widget, and customers visit it on a real clock. “Kissa” is short for kissaten, the Japanese word for an old-style coffee house.
How do I add the Kissa widget?
Touch and hold an empty spot on your Home Screen, tap Edit, then Add Widget. Search for Kissa, pick a size and tap Add Widget.
Is Kissa free? Does it have ads?
Kissa is free, with no ads. The first cafe comes with all its regulars, decor and widgets. Other cafes are one-time purchases. There is no subscription and nothing to buy that speeds the game up.
Do I have to play every day?
No. There are no streaks and no fail state. Customers keep coming while you’re away, and the app shows who visited when you’re back.
Can I make customers come faster?
No. Customers arrive at a fixed pace, the same for everyone. Today’s special and your decor change who comes, not how often.
Does Kissa work offline?
Yes. The game never uses the internet. You only need a connection to buy or restore a cafe through the App Store.
Which devices does Kissa run on?
iPhone with iOS 18 or later, iPhone Duo included: the app fits its cover screen and its inner screen. There is no Android version.
Does Kissa collect my data?
No. Kissa has no accounts, analytics or ads, and your cafe is saved only on your iPhone. Read the privacy policy.
