Dragon Song Tavern: Cozy & Adventurous

it's not a bad game, but I wouldn't classify it as cozy, the main issue for me was that we bought it to play coop, but the multiplayer is very poorly done, you can't battle together, can't even open the tavern menu together, only inventory is shared, no tutorial as well, of course it's nothing new, but I would appreciate the relaxing vibe of not having to figure out the game objective by myself, no lore as well, looks very commercialy made

It's quite cute concept and arts Tyler but poorly executed. A buggy mess. The English translations leave you disconnected from the story you can't quite understand, and nothing is explained well at all. Multiplayer has no story or progression so don't bother with that, either. I'm so so disappointed by the nearly unplayable state of the game - and also the controller is bad for it as well.

Got it to play co op with my bestie, but this game got dull pretty fast. What ultimately killed it for us was a recipe we couldn't make because one of the ingredients was DLC ONLY. There's no storyline for multiplayer. Only one of us could battle a monster, so on the special events only one of us got to do it. Leveling up was painfully slow and the game had minimal challenge. The one thing it had going for it was that the fishing mechanic was much better than other games I've played.

I think I have played enough to give an honest review. "Cozy" is a bit of a stretch considering some of the themes of the story, I would say. I won't lie, I at least enjoyed the absurdity of some of these voice lines/themes that happens in some of the earlier quests. The story just seems like they want to include everything, but has a hard time making things coherent. It's a little frustrating that I, at almost the end of my first year, have gotten 5 "rumors" about the date of one boss appearance and not a single one for at least two bosses, not including the final map which I just got to. The controls of the game are a little rough. Like, when I run out of energy while planting in the field, every selection/controller input will move your character and have them complete actions while you are selecting food to eat. The text boxes will sometimes allow you to skip the text appearing entirely instead of skipping the typing, etc. Overall, I got it on sale and it's definitely not worth more than that price. It's a game I will probably play until I get enough progress to be satisfied and will never try the awful multiplayer I keep hearing about. It's not really unique or engaging enough to recommend to friends to play with, anyway. Hopefully the team is working on fixing the bugs and making the game more functional, but they haven't looked at this game since they release DLC to give you Christmas decor/outfits and a snow machine.

A really cute game. Played 30 hrs so far and I'm hooked. Cooking in the game is a lot of trial and error and thats part of the charm, you will be making a lot of burned food but its okay it has a purpose. The storyline so far is cute and interesting. The whole vibe is like harvest moon with a simple fight system. the only quirk Ive seen is that one items text still in Chinese, it's from the Winter DLC and doesn't impact the game otherwise the game has been running smoothly. I play on my laptop and it's been running well. I really recommend this cute cozy game.

i really like this! if you're looking for a chill cosy game to add to a rotation like stardew, palia, moonlighter and cattails, this fits in perfectly. things i like: - character customisation and clothes. this is just always a fun touch but i really like all the variety in outfits its cute - fishing minigame. i love fishing minigames. - cooking/juicing minigames (kinda too short to be minigames but still). i enjoy having to do a little task to get my dishes - guessing cooking. recipes have hints which u use to figure out what goes in the dish. if it uses super rare ingredients i do save beforehand however just so i don't waste them if it was wrong lmao - farming is mandatory in a cosy game. easy and quick - baby's first dnd combat system and classes????? i genuinely love this, ur party are different classes and u have action points and different stats like strength, dexterity etc. really fun as it adds a whole separate style of gameplay - equipment crafting and skill points. u make better armour and use level skill points to customise ur party, again like a simplified dnd system. really fun and means u can play in whatever style u want the gameplay loop: so i get that this game will get repetitive, but thats part of what i enjoy with cosy games like this. u have a format and u do certain tasks each day, it adds to the fun for me. my typical gameplay loop is: - wake up - fish - farm - go to town to check quests and chat to npcs - go on an adventure - a bunch of different regions u unlock as u progress, as of this i have about 6 opened up (theres like 9 i think currently??). u can only go to one location a day, so its about picking what resources u need, like forageables and monster drops. - fight some monsters!! - come home and do more fishing as the spots refill over time - cook any dishes i need for today - open the tavern, which consists of selecting dishes and then waiting on tables. (this is so much easier once i realised i could get my party members to wait tables also, i was doing everything on my own for like 26 hours it was a speed game for me lmao. now its much more chill). rinse and repeat. is this the kind of game the average person will get 100 hours in? probably not. will i? probably. i was skeptical at first bc of the mixed reviews, and i definitely wouldn't have got it for the full price, but tbh if u like this sort of game u will love this. i just watch youtube and run my little tavern and yeah. its kind of exactly what i want from a game like this

基本的なゲームプレイは、農業・釣り・料理・経営を一通り楽しむスタイルです。序盤はレシピがかなり少なく、ほぼ手探り状態。曖昧なヒントを頼りに自分で配合を研究する必要があり、失敗するととんでもない料理ができることもあります。でも、完成した料理をお客さんに提供して、コインがチャリンチャリンと増えていく瞬間の達成感は本当に最高です！

きっとこれは面白いゲームのはず！　ですが残念ながら好きになれませんでした。 まず日本語訳の質に抵抗がありました。特に女性（妹など）の言葉遣いが男性的なところが。日本人女性の言葉遣いは外国人には難しいのかな？いや頑張っているとは思うんですよ？ それから、おま環かもしれませんがコントローラーの反応が悪い。このためかなり気分が削がれました。まぁキーボード使えば済む話ではあるんですが。 こういうゲームは好きなんですが、プレイ開始後すぐ２つの違和感にあたり、アレルギーっぽく拒否反応してしまいました。手触りとしては好感触ではあるんで、本当に残念に思います。

Farming and gathering feel very convenient. You can work on multiple plots at the same time, and gathering resources is instant instead of waiting through progress bars. The fishing mini-game can be a bit demanding on reaction speed, and fish get away easily. Tavern management gets pretty hectic once customers start coming in, even with the current number of items.

A really cozy tavern management game with a bit of adventure mixed in. You run a tavern on an island with a cute little dragon, while farming and exploring at the same time. Both the characters and pets can be customized, and the combination of management and adventure makes the game relaxing and enjoyable. The game could definitely use more content, but it's still a super chill game to relax with.
