About This Game

About the Game

Bar Keeper is a cozy first-person organizing simulator set in a three-storey bar. The night's delivery has been scattered across the hall, gallery, lounge and barrel-vaulted cellar, and 3,235 bottles, glasses, tankards, casks, crates, chairs and candles must be put back where they belong before morning.

Every item belongs to a marked family, and every fitting carries an engraved brass reference. Read the stock, find its bay and shelf, and turn complete chaos into perfect order.

Gameplay

Pick stock up by the armful, cycle through the stack in your hands, and carry each piece to its correct place. The bar itself is your guide: gilt bay letters, shelf markings and a detailed plan help you navigate the building rather than follow a quest list.

Some bottles arrive half full and cannot go on a shelf. Carry two matching halves and pour one into the other, leaving one complete bottle ready for its proper place. Across 3,235 pieces, 412 joins and 2,823 marked places, everything comes out exact.

Make the Bar Your Own

In Cozy mode, completed rows earn skill points. Unlock and improve eight helpful abilities across five levels to make every route through the bar more efficient. There is no fail state: nothing breaks, nothing is lost and nothing chases you.

Prefer a challenge? Hardcore mode removes the help, starts the clock and records your finished nights on the leaderboard.
