Meet Bobo

A bot, not a bartender.

Bobo is the house bot at Mort Subite, an AI bot that works from the bar's own notes and the register's draft menu. He is for anyone deciding what to drink, when to come, or where to hold a party.

When he is off shift, he falls back to a few scripted answers. Either way, the bartender knows what is on tonight.

Ask Bobo

What he can do on shift

  1. 1Show the register's draft menu, with the date it was edited
  2. 2Look up any beer we have listed, with its story
  3. 3Roll the dice for your next beer
  4. 4Play 421 against him: one throw each, and nobody pays Bobo
  5. 5Quiz you on Belgian beer: five right in a row wins a Mort Subite t-shirt
  6. 6Sign you up as a Mort member, and count your visits
  7. 7Hours, directions and the kitchen
  8. 8Take a private event request to Adam

Game prizes: a Mort Subite t-shirt, never a drink or a discount.
