Does the game actually recognise if you managed to finish your beer and award you some victory points if you do?

Personally I see Oktoberfest as the modern MM or CC... but they'll probably be fewer of them... the original theme and the humour being the main comparisons... Oktoberfest does seem to have more going on though... I'm happy I bought one now before AP stop production and the price goes through the roof when people realise what a cool and fun game it is... and with the drinking recognition and beer tap on the front in upcoming updates it will only improve things!!

Time will tell indeed... one major thing that boosts the value of CC is the B/W name behind it of course... AP don't have the huge fan-base as B/W do... that's one major factor that boosts all B/W games... but you never know... AP might start knocking games out of the park with future titles and start to gain massive respect and develope a sound ran-base. Early games like Oktoberfest, with its quirky animations, could thetefore be highly sought after... one thing's for sure, the gameplay and layout don't let it down, and neither do the looks of the game IMO.

Not after making that post.

In a home environment I'm sure things can be done to improve this...
