Featuring a colorful clientele familiar to all fans of classic Star Wars: trigger-happy Rodians, burly Gamorreans, Imperial stormtroopers and even a Hutt among others. There is never a dull moment in the Thirsty Bantha Cantina!

    Star Wars: Cantina is all about trying to keep your cool when a steady stream of demanding customers all want your attention at the same time. Robb the bartender will take care of mixing the drinks but your task is to see that the right beverage finds its way to the right customer. And don’t keep them waiting, some of the customers are real troublemakers! Working towards your daily quota, accuracy and speed are essential. As a reward for a job well done, outfit your cantina with decorations and attractions to appeal to even the most difficult customers.

    Familiar Star Wars characters, original and colorful visual style, a customizable cantina and casual but challenging gameplay make sure that the game feels as fresh as a cool drink on a hot Tatooine afternoon.

    Key Features:

    • Run your own Star Wars Cantina.
    • A humorous take on the Star Wars universe.
    • Take orders, deliver drinks and serve customers to maximize your tips!
    • Customize your cantina with upgrades to make your customers enjoy themselves more.
    • Career Mode with increasingly challenging levels and a story told through cartoon visuals.
    • Endless Shift Mode: see how long you can keep up with the stream of customers.

    If you need a little bit more polish to your games, Star Wars: Cantina provides a perfectly rounded management experience without the complexity of other titles.

    The comical cantina renditions of classic Star Wars tunes, hilariously animated bar brawls and quick paced gameplay makes it one of the most enjoyable time management games I have ever played.

    Fans of Star Wars and time management games shouldn't think twice about adding Cantina to their collection.

    Star Wars Cantina can be fun, but it can be frustrating as well. I suspect that as a Star Wars fan I'm a little more forgiving of its faults.

    A charming entry to the genre, but one which adds nothing new and whose difficulty is pitched too high for its intended market.

    Without a doubt, the biggest thing that Star Wars: Cantina has going for it is how successfully it captures that Star Wars charm– from the music to the background art and the notorious characters you encounter– you almost expect Luke and Han to walk through the door next.

    The idea of running a cantina in Mos Eisley is really one of the greatest ever. And even the design is pure genious. Unfortunetly, the gameplay downright sucks and it's really hard to get things done the way you want it, and it's more frequently the controls that kills you rather than difficulty.
