ABOUT THE GAME
Blood Bar Tycoon is a vampire bar management game. Build bars and blood factories, lure humans to harvest their blood, process it, and serve your customers: other vampires. Research quirky machines and deal with hunters! Expand through Crimson City to become a mighty Elder!
-
Revamp your vampire bar! As a vampire bar manager, transform shabby bistros into the trendiest bars in the neighborhood! At the same time, lure those clueless mortals into your quirky blood factory to feed other vampires. Manage stocks, avoid bankruptcy, and prevent your Blood Bars from being burned by hunters.
-
Run your business - Hire low-level vampires as minions to carry out your dirty work. Manage their priorities to optimize your operations and satisfy both your mortal and immortal customers. Don't forget to feed them as well! Arrange the hallways, rooms, and other amenities to your taste to enhance the prestige of your bar and become the true hotspot of the neighborhood.
-
Capture juicy humans! Develop an underground human detention center before processing them in your whacky machines to extract their precious blood in all its forms. What's better than serving Bloody Slushies or a Bloody Daiquiri to satisfy your wealthiest and most demanding vampire clients? Discover crazy cocktails with new ways to harvest and process blood! If you do things well, humans will leave with a free hangover from your establishment. But in case of trouble, you'll have a corpse on your hands... and you risk attracting the attention of vampire hunters!
-
Unleash Your Vampiric Creativity! You're not just a vampire bar manager; you're the architect of a true nocturnal masterpiece. Enjoy extensive freedom to renovate, design, and customize every aspect of your establishment with a wide range of themes and styles.

Create the perfect ambiance to attract the most discerning vampires and become a legend of the night! Competitions will highlight the most stunning bars!
-
Micromanage or Automate Your Minions! The Choice is Yours! Take command of your minions with micro-interactions, managing them like a true vampire overlord to tackle emergencies. Seamlessly blend micromanagement with automation, assign work sectors, and set priorities to grow your dark empire like an evil mastermind!
-
Handle the whims of Elder vampires - Interact with enigmatic Elder vampires who will guide you through the night and shape your destiny as a Blood Bar manager. But beware, each Elder has a unique personality. Please them, and you'll be richly rewarded! Disappoint them, and you’ll face their wrath as they plot your downfall.
-
Expand through Crimson City! Our first Blood Bar marks the beginning of your ascent to dominate the blood trade in Crimson City! Each new bar presents new challenges to overcome at your own pace. Prevent your impatient and voracious customers from feeding directly on your human clients. Improve your facilities, machines, and staff. Utilize research and new systems to enrich yourself more quickly! Analyze your indicators to become the best vampire bar manager in the city.
-
Your Ultimate Goal: Becoming an Elder! Try to please the Elders to gain their favor, or suffer their wrath! Understand their personalities and learn how to flatter them. Will you ally with the crazy Yumeko, the voluptuous Sophie, the megalomaniac Vladimir, or someone else? Take control of every district of Crimson City with their help to become one of them and rule for eternity! Will you achieve your vampiric goals or fail miserably?
Players can now wishlist the game on Steam and join our community on Discord.
