Ale & Tale Tavern

Excellent blend of a cooking/serving and adventure game. quirky side quests. Even better with friends. The devs appear to be very involved and keep releasing content. It's well worth it's full price.

A MILD recommend, in its current state. I like the vibe of the game, and the style of it - a bit WoW-like, as someone pointed out. The ability to explore the world around you and embark on quests breaks up the more monotonous tavern-keeping duties, and farming/ranching your own produce is nice. However, while the game in itself is indeed fun, it also needs to be fleshed out further with more content. I don't have many hours into the game but have already done most except hunting for all the achievements (and some late game content). Things that would improve the game (IMO): - More automation with the possibility of having Owls help you prep meals. As of right now, there's no real way for you, if you play solo, to have the tavern open while you go out and explore. I feel like it would be a good addition if they made it possible for the the Helpers to be able to cook meals, even if they were slow in doing so. - More customisation for your tavern. The game lets you repaint the walls/floors and add some small decor items, but it's very limited. I really want to add a lot more "clutter" items that you can decorate the inside (and outside?) of your tavern with; candles, different types of chairs/tables/tablecloth, sculptures, display items etc. Right now the upper level of my tavern looks bland except for some jukeboxes, side tables and drunken inn guests. - More food items and upgradability In combination with my first piece of feedback, I would love if the game let you upgrade the tavern space even further. Both vertically and area-wise would be great. Sometimes the space feels a bit cramped when you have a lot of customers, and I'm very greedy and want to make all ze money. This alongside more dishes and machines to help production would be great. - Better inventory management. Even just the ability to better stack items would help (maybe as some type of upgrade that you have to work to get? Right now it feels very limiting. Larger stack size-upgrades would be awesome here! - More late game stuff to buy with excess money! I have too much money I don't know what to spend on (what a complaint, I know). Maybe cool furnishings? New animals? More machines? Weapons? Many possibilities. Overall, this game has potential and is fun - but could be more than it is, hence the mild recommend.

I love this game, I saw it on sale and was like eh why not started playing it. Then looked at the clock and it was 4 am. Such a cute little game and I appreciate the characters in it especially the scarecrow which I didn't think I would. This game shocked me and I fully support your work. I hope you make more games like this and plan to buy future ones.

Recomendo Ale & Tale Tavern! O jogo tem uma vibe cozy‑medieval deliciosa, com uma atmosfera super acolhedora e personagens muito carismáticos. A arte é linda, a iluminação é quente e o ambiente da taverna transmite exatamente aquela sensação de conforto que eu adoro em jogos deste género. As mecânicas iniciais são simples de aprender e muito intuitivas, perfeitas para quem gosta de jogos relaxantes mas com personalidade. A equipa de desenvolvimento está ativa, lançou recentemente o Inn Update e já anunciou novidades futuras como a Dungeon Update — adoro ver um jogo cozy a crescer com este carinho. A música, o ambiente e o estilo artístico fazem com que seja muito fácil perder a noção do tempo enquanto jogamos. É um jogo com imenso potencial e que já oferece uma experiência super charmosa. Se gostas de cozy games, fantasia leve e gestão de taverna, recomendo totalmente. 🍻✨

interesting cozy style game that slowly adds dungeon adventuring to the script
