Summary

Live your best life while combating the horrors of customer service and transphobia.

Storyline

In Boiling Over, you play as Hazel, a part-time college student who is saving up for a study abroad program by working as a barista! As a barista, it is your job to craft delicious beverages for all of the lovely customers who walk into the store. However, some customers are anything but lovely. Some are jerks. Even worse, some are jerks AND are transphobic. Gross! As Hazel, how do you deal with your already-strenuous coffee-making job? Do you practice your best customer service voice and put up with the abuse of caffeine-addicted customers while pretending that that lady didn’t just aggressively misgender you? Or do you stand up for yourself against these people, risking your job and your paycheck? It is up to you to balance your stamina with your tip earnings and your job performance.
