Tavern Master is a medieval tavern management game where you are in charge of building, maintaining and running your very own cozy tavern!
Buy tables and benches, fill barrels with drinks, hire staff and you are ready to serve your first customers. Make sure your employees are happy, there are enough drinks and seats for guests and soon you will be able to expand your business in various ways.
Build a kitchen and hire chefs to start serving food of all kinds. Make sure that there are enough ingredients or your customers might leave angry
Hold special events to attract special customers who have very specific food and drink requirements. They will come in the morning and stay all day
Hire musicians to attract more people to your tavern and make customers have more patience while waiting for a drink
Build your dream tavern
You will have many tools at your disposal that will help you create a perfect tavern. There are many different walls, floors, fences, stairs and furniture that will make every tavern unique. At the beginning there will not be enough gold to buy the best quality furniture but as your business grows so will the tavern! As a cherry on top, make sure to think of an amazing name for it!
Optimize the workflow
In order to attract customers you will need to have enough seats and tables with a light source close by. The surrounding area also needs to look beautiful and decorations will help with that. At one point there will be a lot of guests coming in and it is important that your staff can serve everyone before they leave angry from waiting too long. In order to do that you will have to design the space so there is an efficient way for your employees to walk in an optimized route.
Create rooms for overnight stay
Some of the guests will want to spend the night so it’s a great thing that you can create rooms with beds in your tavern! Every room will be rated with stars from 1 to 5 which will determine how much money you can earn from the guests. It’s your choice if you want to create big rooms with 5 beds or smaller rooms with expensive furniture that would make guests spend more money.
Many ways to play
There are many different possibilities in Tavern Master and there is no single best way to play. You can spend your time decorating the tavern and making it look cozy and beautiful, you can work towards maximizing revenue by adjusting seating arrangement, prices and salaries for the staff or figure out a completely new way like building only bedrooms instead of having the bar and the kitchen.

If you are one of those players who can watch their Banished village for hours on end, this is the game for you. No hurry, no disasters, no violence. It's zen, with beer...
Easy to understand and fun to play simulator of a medieval tavern 10/10.
Manage workers, build the tavern from the ground up, organize events, send adventurers to perilous quests, and earn money to make a bigger tavern.
There is always some goal to reach, easy to play as a background game - it’s very casual (at least in the first days).
I loved the first few hours I spent playing this game. It's fun to discover the different aspects of the gameplay. When your tavern is new, you can struggle a little trying to keep a decent amount of money.
But to be honest, I stopped enjoying it as the hours went by. It eventually becomes to easy, kind of messy, and the lack of decorations made me put the same things everywhere. The challenge is non-existent throughout the last hours of the game - even if, to be honest, I didn't try the hard mode.
The main problem is that the game seems deep and sophisticated, but... if you dig a little, it's not really :( The customers are empty fellows wandering around. The popularity of your tavern is only based on decorations, which is... not enough in my opinion. The opinion of someone who fancies real managing games.
Once you've unlocked most of the main features, it becomes repetitive and little dull in terms of goals. You can add things around the plac, but it has no real purpose.
So... it's not a "bad" game per say, but it falls flat where it could have succeeded. Even if the game is not on "Early Access", it feels a bit unfinished, unpolished, and it's too bad :( I'm not telling you to avoid the game. You will certainly like it for 10-15 hours. But don't expect too much when it comes to "tycooning" or replay value.
The game is fun, but limited and is in No Way worth $15 or $12 when on sale... Maybe half that and Five Bucks when on sale...
I do see that there is a lot more to it than the free version I've played online, but still, I can't imagine paying this much for it... It's a time killer really, there's no real goal to reach, just keep making money and expanding when able, that's it really...
Lower your price, you'll get more sales...
No gimicks, no story, just simulation. If you were always wanting a game that you could put together your perfect Tavern, this is it.
With that said; there is often a bug that when fire turns up that it's likely to freeze your computer, not all the time but often enough. Also every time I want to play the game, I have to reverify that all the game is there, and everytime it leads to a 1.1 MB download of some missing files; idk why they go missing when I boot up the game, but that's just what I found.
Otherwise, it's fun.
