Planet: Zeelich
Owner: Rick

Appears in: LBA2

Rick's Café is a bar in the harbor of Otringal, owned by Rick and guarded by his bodyguards. The place offers a bar attended by a wannie, slot machines, and a live shows that alternates between a rock guitar player and a franco exotic dancer. The bar also has the entrance to Rick's office. The walls of the cafe are decorated with paintings by some artist named Gramitte.

The Island CX Survivor advises Twinsen to meet with Rick in the cafe and seek his help in finding a way to get to the Island CX. As an underworld boss, Rick doesn't maintain an open door policy, and one needs to prove himself somehow to be able to talk to him.

There are two ways to reach Rick. The first is to beat up the bodyguard at the base of the stairs to the office (to get a key) and the one beside the office door to get through. The other is to slip backstage and solve a puzzle to open a ventilation hatch on the wall, reach it and crawl through into the office.

Impressed by Twinsen's tenacity, Rick advises him to contact the dissidents via Johnny Rocket on the matter.

It's impossible to win a key to Rick's office or a clover leaf in the cafe's slot machines.[1]

Trivia[]

  • The guitar player is a parody of Gene Simmons from the band Kiss.
  • When inspected, it is revealed that the paintings in the café are from a certaing Gramitte which is a parody of the real french artist, Magritte and his paintings.
  • The cafe is possibly named after the "Rick's Café Américain", the setting of the classic film Casablanca.
  • Rick's sign
    The cafe's sign, while appearing to be illegible by being written in an alien language, acually says "Rick's". The "R" is upside down, the "c" is mirrored, the "k" is upside-down, the apostrophe is upside-down, and the "s" is mirrored and rotated 90 degrees.

  1. A dedicated test failed to do so after 3+ hours of automated gambling until the Zlitos saturated at 999. If the developers meant this as an option, it would certainly have happened by this point.
