Mixology - Bartending Puzzle Visual Novel
Mixology Mixology is a quiet bartending puzzle visual novel. You close out each night by remembering which drink each regular ordered, when, and why. Some of them are regulars. Some of them only come in once. Some of them are not quite people. Pour the right drink, ask the right question, and the bar will tell you what it knows. The browser player streams the original build - press Play, take the first order, and start keeping score.

Tips Before You Start
Give the page a clean tab if you can. Close noisy streams, let the iframe take the screen, and read with sound on low if your browser allows it. The game isn't hard to click through, but it's easy to skim past a line that does most of the work. Pay attention to small verbs, to who answers first, to the moment a character goes quiet.
If a polite line makes you flinch, follow that flinch. If a request feels too reasonable, remember it. The best run is usually the one where you let the game catch you being polite when you meant to be honest - and the second run is where it stops feeling like a story and starts feeling like an argument with your own willingness.
