Hi, I'm u/Upset-Blacksmith9313 and this is just a short and simple blog to showcase the photos and experiences I've had at the Chaos Zero Nightmare x Cayenne Cafe Collaboration in Taipei.

There is an embed below to the original Reddit post in r/ChaosZeroNightmare

A BIT about the event and myself

My name is Noah and I downloaded the game around February of 2026, before that, I had heard about Chaos Zero Nightmare only through some content creators and advertisements that kept popping up on my YouTube so I decided to give it a try because they described the game as a RogueLite and I have played and enjoyed two RogueLite games over the past year being Risk of Rain 2 and Hades.

I slowly got sucked in to this game and have over 100 hours played now, it rekindled my love for deck builders because when I was a teenager back in 2017 I used to play a lot of Stormbound an online PvP strategy card game. This game also gave me a push to try Darkest Dungeon which was definitely one of the key inspirations for the sanity mechanic in CZN and I have been enjoying playing Darkest Dungeon II on my PS5.

CZN has chosen to collaborate with Cayenne Cafe and you actually have quite a big span of time if you want to plan a visit because the Cafe has 2 branches, one in Yongkang and one in Zhonxiao that will be holding the collaboration for different time periods.

I visited on the opening day at around noon and the menu selection was 3 meals themed around 3 combatants; Tiphera, Heidemarie, and Diana if my memory serves me right. The food on the menu was margherita pizza, a sandwich, and lastly a rice bun burger. All meals come with a milk tea featuring art of the combatants on top in the form of milk foam art, I tried asking a coffee but they don't sell any during this collaboration period. Unfortunately I didn't get to interact much with other players because of the language barrier.

Future Visits to the Cafe

I will definitely be making future visits to the cafe to collect more merchandise and stamps that you can get on a card to redeem prizes after a certain number of visits. I will proceed to update the blog about my visits. I would like to thank u/Shuffle_FM for giving me the idea to make this blog and I'll slowly build upon it for the duration of the collaboration. I will post updates to the subreddit r/ChaosZeroNightmare as well, there is potential for CZN players to meet up at the cafe to hang out if they are ever in Taipei.

Thank you
