Bar Soviet is a narrative-driven bar management game set against a backdrop of political tension, personal struggle, and quiet resistance. Step behind the counter and take charge of the day-to-day operations - mix drinks, engage in conversations with patrons, and manage your bar’s limited finances under the watchful eye of the state.
Your customers each carry stories shaped by life under the regime. Some seek comfort, others connection. Listening is just as important as serving. Choose your words wisely, balance compliance with defiance, and decide how far you're willing to bend in order to survive - or push back.
Manage your own bar - Mix and serve drinks, buy upgrades and maintain your establishment's reputation while complying with government oversight.
Engage in meaningful dialogue - Converse with a wide cast of characters - workers, officials, salesmen and dissidents. Every conversation carries risk, insight, or opportunity.
Balance your books - Struggle to stay profitable while dealing with taxes, fees and unpredictable state interference.
