About
Build and decorate your tavern, hire staff, stock your larder, meet the locals, be the boss and run the show! Whether you keep a cosy neighbourhood taphouse or a lean, mean gold-minting machine, the choices - and consequences - are yours.

Dozens of intertwined game systems create unpredictable emergent situations. Dirt, heat, noise, flammability, sickness and of course, a parade of colourful customers all keep the unexpected coming.

Today’s situation: Half of your staff are in bed with sleep-sickness. Orders are piling up and patrons’ tempers are getting heated. So is the tavern - because it’s on fire! A spark from a broken lantern landed on just the wrong patch of dirt with no one around to notice. Oops, perhaps it’s time to call the fire brigade...
An expansive narrative campaign lets you build taverns across a vibrant world full of your favourite fantasy cultures. Each new location brings fresh challenges and surprising stories. Meet immortal elementals, outwit halfling philosophers and aid a crazed orc inventor.

Experience a magical storybook fully-narrated by Steven Pacey. Encounter hundreds of bite-sized stories with a surprise at every turn. There’s always someone needing the guidance of a Tavern Keeper like you. What choices will you make?
Decorate every nook and hollow of your tavern to create everything from bustling taprooms to relaxing reading corners. Place and manipulate thousands of items anywhere with complete creative freedom and make the tavern of your dreams.

Go beyond decorating and become a master artisan by using Tavern Keeper’s powerful Design Mode to craft unique furnishings. Combine pieces, add magical effects, then share your creations with the Tavern Keeper community.

Play the single-player campaign your way with adjustable game mechanics and storyteller settings or play in Freeplay for a custom challenge. Pick Challenging and strategize over every decision, barely making it through each day, or play a Relaxed game running the tavern of your dreams without pressure. The choice is yours.

Sehr gutes Aufbau-/Verwaltungssimulationsspiel. Entwickelt sich definitiv in die richtige Richtung. Bin schon gespannt auf die Vollversion.
Купил рассчитывая на развитие а получил какую-то фигню, плюс музыка просто кошмар.
love this studio and they really seem to care about this games development

This and every other Pro feature is free until October 20, 2026. A free account is all it takes.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 24 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,419 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

This game is so much fun!! It is calming but also enough stress to keep it interesting. You do sometimes have to really think through logistics, which I enjoy. But you could also spend hours designing your own decor pieces. Would recommend to anyone who enjoys Sims, Stardew Valley, or things like Planet Zoo.
Крайне очаровательная и душевная игра, редкий кейс когда разработчик вкладывает в проект силы и душу, однозначно лайк за продукт!
Wow! I own like 3 different tavern type games and this one is waaaaaaay above the others in quality. Honestly 2 of those other games were pretty good, but this is in a different league. The game has a lot of character and characters, lol. Not something you usually see in these types of games. As you play, certain guests come in with a storybook above their heads. I think you can just ignore it if you want, but don't. They are well written, often somewhere between witty and hilarious and the narrator is swinging for the fences and connecting on everything. Few negatives/constructive criticism would be, that it needs some small QoL tweaks here and there. Nothing bad enough to hinder enjoying the game. Also, appears a bit short. The tutorial tavern was fun, maybe 3 hours? I know it says 5 hours played thats uh, because I... I MESSED MY FIRST TAVERN UP BY BUYING WAY TOO MUCH STOCK AND HAVING IT ALL SPOIL, LEAVING ME BROKE AND WASTING TWO HOURS. Now I'm on to the second tavern, but sadly it looks like only one more after that. They do plan on adding more tavern locations, so just gotta wait. Last thing I can think of would be some more advanced settings for tuning the graphics. I'm on a pretty mid CPU and had to lower more settings than I expected considering the art style of the game. Which is done very well. Game doesn't run bad, it's perfectly playable, but I wouldn't mind a few more pixels if I can squeak them out. All these problems are easily solved and one is already solved we just need to wait for them to cook. Graphics settings is usually something devs add towards the end of development, at least seems that way. I'd say if you like management style games this should be an easy buy. Goes on sale pretty often too, got it 20% off. Rating is probably a high 8, low 9 currently, but could see it being around a 9.5 if they can stick the landing and use early access properly. P.S. When you start the tutorial tavern don't spend most of your money on beer like its spring break in Florida. It's not a good idea there and it's way worse of an idea here.
Офигенная, очень слежу за развитием. Жду возможность расширять, генерировать помещения!
One of those games where you can tell the developers genuinely love what they created. Truly they pay attention to player feedback. Had a blast playing this and if you like simulation games you will too. Strongly recommend!
