About Survive The Day: Dave's Coffee
Survive The Day: Dave's Coffee is a short office stealth game about a man who wants one thing: his morning coffee. Standing between Dave and the breakroom is Chatty Cathy, a coworker who will happily talk his ear off if she spots him.
The plan is clear from the start. Switch on a computer to pull Cathy away from the breakroom, slip past without crossing her line of sight, and grab the coffee. It's a single small level, so the whole game is about solving that one problem cleanly.
The pixel art is cozy and very office: beige walls, an elevator, a tired bearded man in a tie. The day starts at 7:23 in the morning. You can play Survive The Day: Dave's Coffee online here with a keyboard or a gamepad.

What to Expect in Survive The Day: Dave's Coffee
Expect a tiny, funny stealth game you can finish in a few minutes. There's one goal and one obstacle, so the fun is in the timing: when to set off the distraction and when to make your move.
It's played for laughs, and anyone who has dodged a talkative coworker on the way to the coffee machine will recognize the situation. It's meant to stay a small, free one-level game, so playing Survive The Day: Dave's Coffee free in a browser tab is a quick snack rather than the start of a long campaign.
Tips for Survive The Day: Dave's Coffee
- Set off the computer distraction before you go anywhere near the breakroom. Cathy has to be out of the way first.
- Watch which way Cathy is facing. Her line of sight is the thing to beat.
- Wait a beat after she moves before you follow. Rushing in is the easiest way to get caught.
- Turn up the dialogue speed in Settings if you want to get through the text faster.
- Remap the controls under Settings if the default keys feel awkward.
