About Uh Oh Bartender

A Word From The Devs


We are a relatively small team that decided to take up the challenge to make a game in a month. This is the product of our challenge, and while we are both confident and content with how it turned out, we just want to make everyone aware that this game was created in only one month. It does not have a ton of content, but it does offer a unique arcade puzzle game experience with a solid amount of replayability and provides great laughs with friends.

Please feel free to contact us if you have any feedback, questions, or problems, and be on the lookout for our future games!

The Drinks



At Cypher's, every drink is a puzzle!

In Uh Oh Bartender, you will be serving drinks to patrons as any bartender would, but unlike other bars, the ingredients of the drinks you serve will be dictated by a procedurally generated name, as will the cups they are served in, and any garnishes they are served with. All of these factors are based on "rules" that may or may not be present within a given drink name.

Rules present in any given name may include; looking for certain letter sequences found within the drink name, adding up the numbers in the year at the end of the drink name, or even paying attention to the font of the drink name itself! Be careful though, because you don't have all day to decipher what ingredients are included, as each order will be on a timer.

As you continue to serve correct orders, your score will increase, but so will the complexity of the order!

Don't worry about memorizing every single rule out of the gate, as you'll have a handy cheat sheet that you can pull up to reference every rule that the game has to offer. This cheat sheet can also be downloaded as a PDF to play with friends! (Check under the manual button to the right)

ID Checking



The drink names aren't the only thing you'll have to keep a close eye on, as you'll need to check the ID of each customer that is looking to take an order. You'll have to be able to reject patrons with fake or invalid IDs and ensure you don't turn away those with valid ones.

Your customers are more than just their orders!



Your customers will display various personalities through quips at all stages of the game, to include turning away their fake IDs, complementing your skills, or dishing out ridicule over botched orders. Additionally, the bouncer will have some words for you if you let in a patron with a fake ID.

Such an underrated game, it might seem simple and cheap but it is genuinely a fun game. I love playing this in my spare time and I also learn more about drinks too! That's a win/win in my books :D

This is not a bartender game in the style of Va-11 Hall-1 or Coffe Talk. This is an arcade puzzle where you check fake IDs and prepare cocktails based on their chaotic procedurally generated names and various other clues, all with a time limit. It looks simple but gets really insane and addictive the more you go on. I hope it gets some more recognition.

I have been coming back to this game for years and every time I do I absolutely love it! Its a great time killing puzzle game that'll have you hooked for hours. The atmosphere of the game is really relaxing and the best part of the game is in slowly learning all of the giveaways for the ingredients; being able to put together a drink without looking at the hint sheet adds another layer to the game and is really quite fun. On top of this, using the keybinds to quickly make a drink and fly through the menus is intuitive and very satisfying. This really is a fantastic game with plenty of personality, and I have to give credit to the dev team - when I first got the game years ago and was confused by one of the hint descriptions, I asked in their discord and received a quick response; they even put in an example in game to avoid anyone else getting confused in future if I remember correctly! I'm not sure if they're still making games, but I wish them all the best of luck! Thank you for making one of my favourite games :)

A perfect little game for puzzle loving alcoholics 🍺🧩 This is an absolute gem of a game! It's easy to get the hang of and challenging in a fun way, I never got frustrated at all during my playthroughs. I'm so happy I stumbled upon it and I hope more people find this. Please support these clever independent devs! Can't wait for more upcoming projects.
