Idle Internet Cafe Tycoon
Take over your uncle's struggling back-alley PC cafe. Place gaming seats, ramen counters and vending machines, hire part-timers, and grow a six-seat alley shop into the best PC cafe in the country.
About the studio
Dumb Game Lab is an independent game studio in Korea, run by one developer after work and on weekends. Every game starts from an everyday place — the neighborhood PC cafe, the bathhouse, the corner bakery — and gets polished until it feels good in your hand.

Idle tycoon
Turn your aunt's tiny bathhouse into the country's biggest spa land.
Idle tycoon
Run a neighborhood bakery with Chichi the cat.
Physics merge
Merge farm animals in a magic barn, then send the whole stack charging into battle.
Casual
Watch the CCTV of a self-service store and catch shoplifters with one tap.
Jump & ASMR
Bounce a squishy blob up a tower of keyboard-like blocks.
Arcade
A pocket claw machine full of plush prizes.
ASMR toy
Squish, stretch and poke satisfying slimes.
Merge puzzle
Merge matching breads into bigger ones and fill customer orders at a run-down neighborhood bakery. Coins fix up the shop one corner at a time, from the sign to the oven.
Idle arcade
Drag to run, stack fresh bread in your hands and carry it to the display. When the line gets long, hire staff and grow from one shop floor to a cafe and a second shop.
Cooking
Listen to each order, then bake it by hand in seven steps and hand it over.
Decision tool
Spin a wheel to settle lunch, dares or turn order. Up to 100 options, free, no sign-up. Chichi announces the result.
Daily facts
Otters sometimes sleep holding hands. One weird, true fact a day, told as a comic by a fox.
Simulation
You can't pick your country or family. Get born by real odds, watch one life unfold a year at a time, then compare it with four people born at the same moment.
Who makes these
I have been making small games for five years, in the evenings after work and on weekends. Dumb Game Lab is where they finally ship.
Concept, art direction, code, sound and localization are done in-house. Every game launches in eight languages, because the corner PC cafe exists in Taipei, Hanoi and Jakarta too.
