I have never been a strategy, turn based game player. They require patience, thought-out movement and finesse. All attributes, I definitely do not possess, believe me, ask my colleagues.

Quirky games. Yeah, I have time for them. Its hard to reinvent the wheel and indie companies try all sorts of ideas to make their game stand out. Now this had me curious… what possibly could be the connection between a bartending simulator and a cyberpunk dystopia? Released initially back
