Info about Papa's Mocharia Deluxe:

Official game description:
Papa Louie has opened a brand-new coffee shop in New Pepperton, serving up custom layered coffee drinks known as Papaccinos.  After landing a job as the barista at Papa's Mocharia, you discover that a year-long documentary is being filmed about the new coffeehouse -- and you're now the main star!  Under the watchful eye of the camera crew, you'll brew espresso, steam and froth milk, and craft eye-catching layered coffee drinks.  Finish the lattes with whip and toppings, and serve them with delicious cannoli to your picky customers.  You'll need to multitask between multiple areas in the coffeehouse, where each station is a unique hands-on experience.  
Papa's Mocharia makes its PC debut!  In this deluxe version, the original coffee-crafting experience has been reimagined for mouse controls and larger screens, delivering the classic hands-on gameplay to Papa's Mocharia for the first time.  Even more customers have arrived in New Pepperton to try the famous layered Papaccinos, so you'll see some fresh faces along with your Mocharia regulars.  Along with returning features like Daily Specials and helpful Score Detail breakdowns, this version adds new holiday ingredients, and introduces a Free Play mode with the Mocharia Food Truck!
Celebrate the seasons in the coffeehouse with delicious holiday flavors!  As you reach new ranks, the seasons and holidays in New Pepperton will change, and your customers will start ordering holiday-themed drinks and cannoli.  You'll unlock new syrups, powders, dairy, shakers, creams, and cannoli shells for each holiday of the year.  You can also buy holiday clothing and decorate the lobby with seasonal decorations to show your holiday spirit!
After you hire a Driver, you can send them out across New Pepperton in your brand-new Mocharia Food Truck!  Between workdays, use your imagination to craft your own unique layered lattes and cannoli, then serve them straight from the truck to see who shows up to try your creations.  You can also mix and match ingredients from different holidays in the Food Truck for truly unique combinations!
