People who downloaded Last Call have also downloaded: Replay Value: Every game is different and the game can be played repeatedly without boredom. The background music is good.Įnjoyment: The life of a bartender isn't really all that fun but serving drinks can be interesting as well as the "shmoozing" aspect levied at the customers. Sound: Mostly good but sometimes difficult to hear or understand. Some are drawn well and others poorly, especially in the bonus rounds. Graphics: The graphics of the bar are excellent but the patrons are a mix. Last Call offers laughs, drink recipes and a bit of fun to enliven your time in front of the computer. If you've ever wondered if the life of a bartender is really like that portrayed in the movie Cocktail, here's your chance to find out. You click on the bottles of liquor and drag them over the glass, blender, straining glass or shaker until they start to tilt. Just listening to the customers' banter is often enough to make you smile or even laugh.Ĭontrols in the game are easy but do require a bit of familiarization. The humor is intended for adults and the drink recipes can be saved for later personal use away from the computer screen. This is an extremely cute game but definitely geared toward adults. And, if you complete enough shifts or rounds, you are taken on a tour of Bartender's Heaven by none other than the Greek god of wine, Bacchus. You can flirt with the customers (you set the sex of your bartender when you start a game), change the music on the jukebox, give people a free drink ticket, use the recipe book or bounce them out of the bar if they get too abusive, drunk or both. When a new customer appears at the bar, you must card them and take their order by pushing the appropriate buttons. Making drinks doesn't comprise all the tricks you have at your disposal. The second round requires you to earn sixty dollars and advances you to the third round at $100 - you get the idea. You are automatically advanced to the second round if you rake in $50 in tips. The object of each round is to make a certain amount of money in tips - in the first round, it's thirty dollars. I particularly like Cyn, the girl in black leather who comes riding in on her slave. The customers are a hoot and include such diverse characters as a caveman, a robot, a very angry woodchuck and several human customers with, shall we say, "interesting" lifestyle choices. The voices in the regular game rounds seem very human but those in the bonus round sound like they're computer generated (not done particularly well, either) making it difficult to understand what the customers are ordering at times. The bonus round can also be accessed from the main menu and, in fact, is a bit surprising. In between rounds, there is a bonus round where customers ask for one-shot items such as olives, cherries, soda water, melon liquor and so forth. Gameplay is relatively easy in the earlier rounds as customers have more patience and ask for easier drinks. You serve drinks, "shmooze" the customers and, most importantly, rack up tips to advance to the later rounds. A most unusual type of simulation, Last Call puts you in the shoes of a bartender at the Last Call Bar.
