Alchemist has announced its fourth Dreamcast project, Chocolate - maid cafe - curio. The Dreamcast adaption of this GIGA-developed PC adventure title will be handled by HuneX, while Alchemist will publish the title later this year. In comparison to the original PC version, the console version will feature a new intro movie, a vocal ending theme, new event and cutscene CGs as well as two drastically edited scenarios.

The game tells the story of a protagonist who has to act as manager of a western-style cafe during his father's three months of absence. In the four locations within the cafe, the protagonist will eventually meet up with the heroines, thereby triggering off certain event scenes.

Chocolate - maid cafe - curio for the Dreamcast will be available in Japan sometime in winter 2003.
