Last Call!

Gamer's Pulse (81 out of 100)

Overall, it’s an interesting premise. A full bar sim has not been done before, to my knowledge. It's a shame that the uniqueness of the game is also what keeps it from having much in the way of replayability; but what more can you do with a game in a bar?

Often a $20 game is worth just about that...twenty dollars. In this case, while there is quite a bit of repetition by the characters, and the interface could have allowed for larger items behind the bar, Last Call offers lots of adult fun, and it's fair to say that you get more than you pay for. While I wouldn't call it a serious simulation of bartending methods, it comes close; but what it definitely scores on is offering up laughs and glimpses of what it takes to be a master mixocologist.

All Game Guide ( )

Controls in the game are easy but do require a bit of familiarization. You click on the bottles of liquor and drag them over the glass, blender, straining glass or shaker until they start to tilt. Clicking and holding pours the liquor. 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. Last Call offers laughs, drink recipes and a bit of fun to enliven your time in front of the computer.

Inside Mac Games (IMG) (6 out of 10)

The latest title from Simon and Schuster Interactive is not your typical game. Last Call is a new simulation game, only this time it is not a city simulator or a flight simulator. This game is a bartending simulator. In this game, the player takes on the role as the new bartender at the Last Call Lounge. The ultimate goal of the game is to earn as many tips as you can by closing time.

Again, this is a bargain title. For the price, it’s an amusing distraction that’ll give you a taste of life behind the bar — and probably will teach you some new recipes to boot. Cheers to that.

A ma grande surprise le jeu est plutout plaisant et les graphismes même si ils sont en 2 dimensions avec une résolution fixée à 640x480 sont tres agréables. Les nombreuses animations que possedent vos clients ainsi que l'humour omniprésent dans le jeu contribuent à faire de Last Call un bon petit jeu qui vous fera passer un tres bon moment pour un prix réduit ( environ 100F sur le site de l'éditeur. ). De plus au bout de quelques heures passées sur Last Call, vous deviendrez véritablement imbattable en boissons et pourrez épater tout le monde avec des cocktails dignes de vrai professionnels. On peut toutefois regretter que le jeu soit plutout linéaire. Le bar ou vous travaillez ne change jamais et les clients même si ils sont nombreux finissent pas se répéter

So anyway, the bottom line is that Last Call will teach you how to make drinks, which is very cool, but it's just not much of a game. This is meant to be played in place of Solitaire, not Starcraft. At a mere 20 bucks, prospective bartenders and raging alcoholics have to pick it up, but casual drinkers might just want to pass...out....ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ....

Lo mejor del "juego" es que tienes un libro de recetas de bebidas en el ordenador, para usarlas cuando quieras en tus fiestas. Porque el juego en sí es muy flojo y en un par de horas lo acabaremos dejando en el estante.
