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.
Made by Greenheart Games 💚 (Game Dev Tycoon), a tiny independent team, Tavern Keeper is a passion project more than a decade in the making. Every detail is handcrafted, from the art, sound, writing, animations, down to the 3D user interface and many quality-of-life features. We took no shortcuts to bring you an experience like no other. Come on Inn!

i despise Early Access games in general. but this one is quite good for what it can offer right now. i can see myself sinking even more hours into this game. i liked the game since its demo and waited impatiently. my complaints are: 1 - the tutorial is too long. i know the devs wanted to make it pleasant and blend it into narratives but still it's just too long. 2 - it is the biggest middle finger to players when the devs decided to lock the layouts. i mean come on, give us options to build our own tavern as we like. 3 - optimization: my GPU screams randomly. and the game starts to slow down a bit at large taverns especially light sources. and i have 3060ti. 4 - the game needs QOL improvements.
Cant wait untill they add the rest, nice and clear road map and replayavukuty, Doing the same gimic oviouslty but we get new layouts and the oportunity to use the new fetures we unlocked doing the star climb again in diffrent areas. Hard running a resturant out in the swamp, not much on the menu unless your ordering from other regions.

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 23 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 14 places towards #1, and the 2,515 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.

Really enjoyed this game and the narrator is fantastic! Can't wait for more levels!
Definitely worth it. I don't think many games have so many quality of life features. There are a few rough spots that I'm sure they will iron out but it's still very enjoyable. The simulation is very robust too. Lots of variables and things can go wrong. Playing on challenging mode requires strategy but doesn't break your brain. I think in a couple of years this will be one of the best simulation games ever made, so may as well get in now!
꽤나 재밌게 잘 만든 겜. 아기자기한 그래픽 덕에 하스스톤 여관을 직접 만드는 느낌도 있음. 다만 서양 감성의 캐릭터 디자인이 매우 호불호가 갈릴 수 있음. 비슷한 류의 게임인 Tavern Master 도 재밌게 플레이 했는데 그쪽은 더 가볍고 심플한 느낌이라면 이쪽은 훨씬 디테일함. 문제는 그 디테일이 너무 많아서 하다보면 겜이 아니라 진짜 가게 차려서 일하는 느낌이 들어서 살작 빡치는 상황이 있음. 그래도 직원들 포지션을 디테일하게 짜줄 수 있는 것은 장점. 위에서 말했듯 캐디가 진짜 호불호가 매우 심하게 갈릴 수 있는데 안그래도 직원들의 성능이 죄다 나사 하나씩 빠져있는 애들(재능은 요리 몰빵인데 요리사는 절대 안하려고 하거나 패널티 스킬이 존나 많이 붙어있음)인데 생긴 것도 진짜 못 생김. 이게 가게를 아기자기하고 귀여운 맛으로 꾸며 놨는데 직원이나 손님들 생긴 꼬라지 보면 가게에 불질러서 초기화 시키고 싶어짐. 오크가 차라리 제일 멀쩡해 보일만큼 애들이 비호감으로 생김. 그 외에도 재고 정리나 발주등이 디테일하지만 빡치는 것이 많고 스토리 모드를 별로 안 좋아하는 사람이라면 중간중간 강제로 스토리 뜨는 것이 개빡칠수 있음. 뭔 직원 하나 잘 쓰고 있었는데 자기 꿈을 찾아 떠난답시고 나가버리는 스토리도 있는데 생긴게 비호감이라 그냥 참고 보냈더니 다음에 뽑은 애는 더 못생김. 암튼 캐릭터들이 좀 호불호가 심하게 갈릴 외모이고 너무 복잡한 느낌이 좀 있으나 꾸미는 디테일이나 경영의 재미요소는 꽤나 좋은 겜. 아직 얼액이니 더 괜찮아질거라고 생각중.
I've only played for a little bit, but I am already in love with this game. I meant to spend an hour playing and spent almost 2 instead. I'm so excited to progress further through the game, and to the narrator: yes, I will find the end of the tool tips <3
Fun and casual game to chill and relax with
entertaining as all get out!!!
Fun game. It is already worth its prize and it is not even fully released yet. Exciterd for the next updates.
