A bit rough around the edges
Pretty solid simulation of running a mediaval tavern which is pretty enjoyable if you can make it work for you. While the game is technically running acceptable, I only had some minor glitches and the software is nowhere close to what I would call "broken", it suffers from some unintuitive UI and opaque game mechanics. Some design choices are either strange, e.g. why is the ability to give my workeers different shifts so high up in the tech tree?, or poorly communicated, e.g. I have no idea what this whole social systems does if at all. The game would have definitely benefitted from another year of polishing and user testing, especially more animations and texts to signal what's actually going on in your tavern. But I guess that's how it is. Remarkably however is that the developers aucessfully tried to fit a campaign into what is baiscally a free play mode with progression and narrative (as opposed to mission based maps in e.g. Two Point Hospital). If you see past the shortcomings and are willing to spent an hour or two to figure out how things work, you'll get enough out of your 15-20€'s worth.
