While We Wait Here may just be game version of the "this is fine" meme image. This game places you in the role of Cliff and Nora as they manage their remote diner, serve guests, and hear about the coming end of the world.
While We Wait Here is retailing for just $4.99. If you get it during this launch period, you'll be able to save another 10% off of that from some of the storefronts. It's available through Steam and Epic, as well as being available on Xbox, PlayStation, and Switch.
About This Game
‘While We Wait Here’ is a kitchen management game with dialogue choices and multiple endings.
Run a small diner located near a mountain range, take orders from your customers, cook them good food and serve them refreshments.
The equilibrium of an ordinary working day is shattered when news of an impending catastrophe is broadcasted.
Now looming over the characters is the catastrophic threat of the end of the world. At the diner, some of your customers seem to ignore it, blinded by their own problems they play the whole thing down or even refuse to believe it. Others welcome it as punishment for what they have done in their life. As you wait inside the diner, listen to their stories and offer them food for thought.
Will you convince your customers to run for shelter, or will they stay at the diner, waiting for the end?

Edit: Saw the user reviews and videos on this game. I think I understand the pricing now. Not the game I wanted, but still not a rip-off.
