Tavern Keeper

 
Tavern Keeper is a deep management and creative decoration game set in a fantasy world. Developed by Greenheart Games, the creators of Game Dev Tycoon, Tavern Keeper lets you design, run, and upgrade pubs that serve everything from dwarves to humans, orcs to skeletons. You hire staff, stock food and drinks, decorate every room, and deal with never-ending surprises, disasters, and hilarious stories that unfold as your tavern grows.
Core Gameplay and Features

Build, expand, and decorate your own tavern. Place furniture, set prices, organize your storeroom, and choose what’s on the menu. Every detail, from lighting to layout, affects customer satisfaction.
Hire, train, and manage staff to serve guests, cook food, play music, and keep everything clean. Deal with mishaps, personality clashes, and burnout as your team faces ever-growing crowds.
Keep your tavern running during unpredictable events: fires, sickness, noise, or sudden infestations. Use tools and upgrades to fix problems or watch as chaos spreads.
Meet a cast of quirky characters and encounter funny stories and interactive quests, giving the game strong RPG flavor alongside its management depth.
Adjust game sliders to control difficulty. Go for laidback creative sandbox play or ramp up the challenge with tight budgets, angry patrons, and tough scenarios for maximum management madness.
Progress through storybook chapters, unlock new recipes, events, and unique décor, and earn star ratings to open advanced pubs and attract legendary guests.
Enjoy cozy visuals, witty writing, and a playful, unpredictable atmosphere where every decision can deliver a laugh or a lesson.
