Description
Tavern Tales
A cozy medieval tavern tycoon. Cook real dishes at your own kitchen stations, pour the drinks, and serve a steady stream of guests who each know exactly what they like. Earn Tavern Coins, grow your inn's reputation and turn a tiny corner pub into the most famous tavern in the land.
Features
- A tavern to call your own. Place a Tavern Sign, set a few tables and stools, flip it to OPEN and the guests start to arrive. Name your tavern, collect the coins and watch your reputation grow.
- Real cooking. Chop at the cutting board, simmer in the pot, bake in the oven, brew at the keg and the mead vat. Dozens of dishes and drinks.
- Guests with their own taste. Farmers, travellers, merchants, bards, townsfolk and more. Serve them the right dish, quickly, and they leave happy (and tip). Keep them waiting and they will let you know.
- Grow your inn. Level up your tavern, buy upgrades for more seats, more patient guests, bigger tips, new menu items and more, and buy ingredients with your coins from the Trade Book.
- Make it cosy. Candelabras, chandeliers, rugs, lanterns, bookshelves and more raise your tavern's atmosphere, and a good atmosphere brings extra reputation with every paying guest.
- Achievements. A set of advancements to chase, all the way up to a legendary inn.
- English and Dutch included.
Getting started
- Craft a Tavern Sign (planks, a Tankard and a stick). A Tankard is made from planks and iron nuggets. When you place the sign, a travelling merchant leaves you a Trade Book.
- Furnish the hall. Add Tavern Tables and a few Stools or Benches next to them, close to the sign, with free floor beside each seat. No seats means no guests.
- Build a kitchen. Start with a Cutting Board and a Kitchen Knife, then add a Cooking Pot and an Oven. A Keg and a Mead Carboy take care of the drinks. Wooden Plates and Tankards are what you serve on.
- Open up. Right-click the sign and press OPEN. Guests start to arrive and tell you what they want.
- Serve and earn. Place the finished dish on the table in front of the guest. Happy guests pay in Tavern Coins and raise your reputation. Collect the coins at the sign and spend them on upgrades or ingredients from the Trade Book.
The rest, you will find out as you go.
Coming later
Tavern Tales is just getting started. Planned for future updates: a skill tree, hireable staff for your tavern, and some trouble-making guests who would rather not pay. Got an idea? Leave a comment.
