Uh Oh Bartender

Uh Oh Bartender is an arcade puzzle game set at Cypher's, where you serve drinks by working out their ingredients, cups and garnishes from procedurally generated names. You also check customers' IDs, deciding who can enter while keeping up with timed orders.

Decode the drinks

Each drink name can contain rules that determine what goes into the order. These may involve finding letter sequences, adding the digits in a year at the end of the name or paying attention to the font. Orders are timed, and serving them correctly raises your score while making subsequent orders more complex. A cheat sheet lists every rule and can be downloaded as a PDF to use while playing with friends.

Check each ID

Customers who want to place an order must show an ID. You need to reject fake or invalid IDs without turning away customers whose IDs are valid.

Customer reactions

Customers show their personalities through quips throughout the game. They may comment when you turn away a fake ID, praise your skills or ridicule botched orders. The bouncer also has something to say if you let in a customer with a fake ID.
