I've had a strange relationship with this game. I bought it back in Nov 2020 and have only now, 4 years later, finished it. Why did it take me so long? Well first off I played it in real time, one in-game night for every irl night. And of course I had to always have a drink. Because of that it morphed into a ritual game that I had to be in a very specific mood for. As time went on and I got more attached to the characters and the world I took longer breaks between playing, until there were months between sessions. Eventually it became so rare and special for me to play it that I feared it ending, that I'd have to move on. So I neglected it for like 2 years, forgot the plot and had a excuse to restart after completing 3/5ths of the game. I have so many screenshots of lines from this game, I've listened to Garoad's OST thousands of times, this game is a massive reason I worked at a hole in the wall cocktail bar when I moved to London; I went through severe anxiety and PTSD incidents and this game was one of the few things that just got me when I needed it most. It's had such a comforting, cathartic and reassuring impact on me during the formative years of my young adulthood. And I couldn't have asked for a better source of all that. Now that I've finally finished it, it feels like I've grown up. I can let the story end and a new one begin. Overall, it's not a perfect game but it's a amazing one nonetheless. Play it, learn from it, laugh with it. Mix drinks and change lives

If you enjoy narrative-driven games but often find visual novels too cheesy or overly focused on high school settings, youā€™ll love this game. It has mature, engaging, and well-written stories with a diverse and eclectic cast of characters. Also Jill, your main character, doesnā€™t just stand by and listen. Rather she actively engages with others, forms relationships, and delivers witty remarks and opinions. And she's a great character herself. The worldbuilding is immersive and believable. The OST is outstanding, perfectly complementing the gameā€™s stylish and classy visuals. If youā€™re drawn to a melancholic cyberpunk aesthetic mixed with outrun and vaporwave music, this is the game for you. The bartending gameplay is relaxing and serves as a natural extension of the storytelling. Youā€™ll mix drinks, remember customersā€™ favorite orders, and interact with them like a real bartender would. Having played many narrative games, I can say this one feels special. Itā€™s the kind of game where you can feel the love and effort poured into it by its small development team. There arenā€™t many games quite like it.

Only one shift in, and I can tell that this game is going to be absolutely lovely. Get some bourbon, some potato chips; whatever, and get comfy. If this game is on sale, I think you should get it.

I replay this game every year around Christmas. Just feels right! The music is incredible, the art is incredible, the story is incredible, and the game mechanism is incredible! I sometimes get really bored with Visual Novels, but having to make drinks and having interactions possibly being affected because of that really helps keep me engaged. Plus, the plot gives a comfy vibe and really sucks me in every time I play. Love this game so much!
