House of Fado (CZ/EN)

Product detailed description

In House of Fado, you manage a traditional Portuguese restaurant where live fado music fills the air. Hire artists, attract customers, and build prestige for your establishment. The game is inspired by the legendary The Gallerist, bringing its acclaimed mechanisms into a more approachable and thematically unique experience.

Fado, a music genre born in early 19th-century Lisbon, is steeped in melancholy, longing, and hope. In Casa de Fado restaurants, guests dine and listen to emotional performances by fadistas accompanied by the distinctive Portuguese guitar. In the game, you’ll recreate this atmosphere by signing contracts with musicians, promoting them, and ensuring your restaurant thrives.

With mechanisms reminiscent of The Gallerist, you’ll assign workers to actions that may later be taken over by rivals—granting you valuable bonuses. Success depends on balancing the right artists, satisfied customers, and smart management.
