Tavern Keeper ๐Ÿป - 20% OFF on Steam

Tavern Keeper ๐Ÿป is currently featured on the Steam store!

ๆฆ‚่ฆ

From the creators of Game Dev Tycoon comes a charming yet deeply strategic management simulation. Tavern Keeper invites players to build and run fantasy taverns, balancing the 'cozy' joy of intricate decoration with the 'chaotic' crunch of detailed staff, inventory, and patron management in a vibrant voxel world.

ใ‚นใƒˆใƒผใƒชใƒผ

Set in a humorous fantasy universe, the narrative unfolds through an interactive 'Storybook' system narrated by the character 'Pacey'. Players encounter eccentric patrons ranging from mad orc scientists to deep-thinking philosophers, navigating multiple-choice vignettes that influence the tavern's fate and unlock new campaign regions.

Gameplay

The gameplay is a blend of creative freedom and tycoon strategy. Players design layouts with a powerful voxel editor, manage staff shifts and morale, optimize supply chains, and handle emergent disasters like fires or bar fights, all while chasing star ratings to progress across the world map.

Key Features

  • 1Deep Management Systems: Control staff rosters, supply chains, and pricing.
  • 2Intricate Voxel Sandbox: Scale, rotate, and combine furniture with limitless freedom.
  • 3Interactive Storybook: humorous RPG vignettes with choices that matter.
