You bought a bar. Nobody mentioned the $100,000 debt. I Bought A Bar is a cheeky bar management game where you serve the drinks and decide the bill. Build your team, keep the orders coming and earn enough to face the debt collector. HOW MUCH WILL THEY PAY? Collect the original bill or choose your own amount. Read the customer's comments and your staff's whispers before taking a risk. Different customers, staff experience and how much a guest has been drinking affect the outcome. Push too far and a customer may refuse or alert the police. BUILD YOUR BAR TEAM Choose the hostesses for each shift. Drag a hostess to a customer or tap their speech bubble to assign someone. Hostesses earn experience from their work. Collect their progress after closing and upgrade them in STAFF when they are ready. Save your cash to unlock more staff. KEEP THE ORDERS COMING Serve food and drinks, watch for another round and collect the bill before the night ends. Unlock menu items by completing nights and paying game cash. Expand your options as your bar grows. HANDLE THE FALLOUT A refused bill is another decision. Accept the original payment or, when available, call Muscle to collect three times the original bill. The first call each night is free; extra calls use a bonus ticket or an optional rewarded ad. If the police arrive, a cheeky bribe might keep your night going. PAY OFF THE DEBT Your debt keeps growing during play. Collect your revenue and decide what to spend or repay. The collector returns after five playable nights. Keep making progress toward the next bar while enjoying the comic story and your customers' over-the-top reactions. Quick shifts, risky bills and a bar full of cartoon personalities. How far will you push the price? Optional in-app purchases and rewarded ads are available.
