Barbarous 3 Level 7 Walkthrough (Hard Mode; 3 mugs)
One of the hardest levels in Barbarous 3.
Tip: Each customer type always orders the same thing. It’s best to memorize what each orders. There is no room for error.

Barbarous 3 Level 18 Walkthrough (Hard Mode; 3 mugs)
Tip: Check out 5 customers in a row 5 times to get the full 500 points. The final set of 5 is a timing issue. For the set immediately following the first appearance of the card-player (the final set), slow down service to the table customers, so that another customer arrives at the counter before the table customers finish eating.

Barbarous 3 Level 24 Walkthrough (Hard Mode; 3 mugs)
I cannot complete level 24 in hard mode and get all the mugs. My highest score was 3453/3500. If anyone knows of a video that shows how this level in done properly, let me know. Or if you have some tips, I’d love to hear them.
Maybe this one is just not winnable.
