Tavern Master

This game offers a calm,enjoyable experience that's both fun and relaxing.

Closer to an idle than a management sim. The whole time I was just sitting there on 2x speed waiting for the money to come in so that I could buy upgrades. Maybe it gets more fun the further on you get but I found the base gameplay loop very, very boring.

I got this game for like, $4. I didn't expect much from it and then marathoned almost 10 hours straight. For $4? Earned my thumbs up.

I agree that this feels more like an idle management game, the mechanics aren't too complex. That said, it's a beginner-friendly and pretty relaxing management game. Watching your tavern grow from nothing and gaining reputation along the way is satisfying. Took me about 24 hours to complete all the achievements, because I found a little glitch that speeds up quest completion. When you get a quest to buy kitchen items, just buy them, claim the quest reward, and then sell the items. The next day, the same quest shows up again. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3521337207 https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3488647310

There's not much happening in the game, and it felt more like an idle game than it did as a management game. It gets boring really fast, and there's not much progression nor content in the game. Luckily I got in on sale, I wouldn't pay the full price for this game since it's not worth it.

It's a pretty basic resource management game. It starts off slow, gets active in the middle, and the end is BORING. By the last few hours, I had it running in the background just to finish the research (not a quitter, although I should have) It turns into a very boring grind just to acrue the last needed research points. Then....that's it. You finish the research, and there's just more monotony. I'm glad I bought this on sale. It would have never been worth full price. The only reason I have as many hours logged as I do is because I left it up on my screen for a full day. total playthrough time was maybe 10 hours, and the majority of that is just wishing I could have made the fast speed option even faster.

A really chill and enjoyable game. Perfect for casual play without any stress, and quite easy to get into. There's a good amount of quests and research to keep things interesting alongside the core management gameplay. Tons of decoration and customization options for your tavern, which is a nice touch. It does get a bit repetitive in the long run, but still a pleasant axperience overall.

More of an idle game than a management game. The order which you get the research is very weird, by the point you get the advanced fire extinguisher you have had zero risk of fire for several hours. I find it kind of hard to manage which floor each worker attend and things like games are so late game that I don't see the point, they pay very little.

A fun little game, something you just spend time on just for the hell of it, it's relaxing with some minor events happening just to keep you abit engaged in it but it fills the niche of simply just running a tavern and expanding everytime you have the surplus of coin for it. It takes time though so sometimes you'll just be skipping through the days to get to the next step. Edit: Though I will say it turns into a slog when you reach the last 5-8 researches.. especially when you're just waiting to unlock the games etc.

This game is simple and very relaxing. It felt like a decoration simulator to me. You manage resources like having enough tables, seats, drinks, etc. Throughout this process you get reputation increase for decorating your tavern with things like banners, statues, and plants. The game does a good job of encouraging the player to have a relaxing time and get creative. It's pretty rewarding to see how fast things progress. The game loop is a steady incline of progression and rewards until the game ends. It took me roughly 20 hours off and on to "beat" the game. I still consider playing it again till this day, it's a good fit for anyone with a tight schedule.

As a tycoon and beer enthusiast I was excited to play this game when I saw it first but I wasn't expecting it to be this much addictive. Can cost you your days and nights.

This is a fantastic feather light tycoon game. Beginners to the genre should make this an early stop. This is a fun game for those of us with a bit more experience with tycoon games, but it didn't hold my attention as something with more complexity would. That doesn't mean you shouldn't play it, just go in expecting a light experience. The research tree is interesting, but did become a bit same-y after getting about halfway through. Watching you tavern grow to be a large hotel/tavern is great fun. Worth the price.

Simple and addictive, it is also exciting to see how you progress building the Tavern and getting more stuff and customers, I couldn't ask for more.

[h1]It's definitely a good and solid game, I just feel like there are many lost opportunities.[/h1] [b]On the upside...[/b] The game is extremely easy to get into, and it's really chill if you're searching for something to kill a few dozens of hours without needing to stress yourself with all sorts of complicated UIs. [b]However, the downsides are...[/b] Building menu is way too primitive and barely allows any messing around, so even if you try hard enough, it will all come down to your tavern still being a big cubic building, just with a few extra steps. Overall I wish the game had at least a few more complexities than it currently has, because at the end of the day, it just all comes down to the player not really being bothered with management matters and just needing to sit through a day or two of gameplay in order to farm enough money and then proceed to play in creative mode, since the money becomes so vast, you can do literally anything. [b]Summary[/b] Although I have told about more negative than positive points about this game, I still wanna recommend it due to the fact of it still being a good amount of fun and chill, I still enjoyed creating my own tavern and due to the simplistic approach to the creation of the game, it's easy to get lost in the gameplay for a fair amount of hours.

Luckily I bought this on sale... This game is the definition of waiting around. If you want an engaging game, don't buy it. If you want a game where you place some things then let the game run on its own for a couple hours... well if that's your definition of "having fun", you'll knock your socks off.

I am finding this quite enjoyable as a very simple builder that is calming as has some pretty decent music as well. As with a lot of these types of games is has some annoying things when you can't place things exactly in a grid. Always make a little more space then you think you will need is the rule of thumb it seems. Apart from that one small gripe? I am really enjoying the very simple setting of game play to relax.

This game is so peaceful, I love watching the NPC's from the third person view. Also love firing my waitresses for not cleaning the tables fast enough. The winter & pirate addition are also very cool. I just wish there was more decor and prettier wall papers. all in all 9.5/10 <3

Why the flub can i have a winter tavern but i serve tea and not ale and mead and have vikings?! solid game though.

Perfect if your brain needs a second thing to do while watching a movie, show or stream etc <3 i mean that in the best way possible. I love games where the employees do their jobs autonomously and i get to sit back and be creative with building as the main focus.

Its fun for about 5hours, would wait for sale tho also kinda idle game with no offline progress, there is alot of waiting

People shitting top floor, eating ground floor, sleeping middle floor. Perfect medieval stuff!

It's fun but after about 15 hours the content gets boring, if there maybe was an option of buying more land next to thr tavern to stand a seperate hotel and expan on something else? IDK fun game kept me busy for a weekend

definitely would benefit greatly from a campaign mode with specific goals other than "exhaust all your research and quests" but I definitely enjoyed bougie-fying my entire tavern at the peak of it

The base game is great. I'm enjoying the variety of things I can do and the customisation I can make to my tavern. I will admit I was expecting hard mode to be a bit more challenging for a first time player however it's been fun getting to grips with the game and trying out various things to increase profits.

great simple game, if your looking for something to pass the time and not get stressed out

This is kinda cool, fairly fun, but really lacks polish. Kind of has that low effort indie unity game vibe, and doesn't really stand out in any way to allow that feeling to go to the wayside. I couldn't recommend this at full price, but got it on Steam summer sale for 75% off and would consider it worth the money at that price. This one could be tagged as "Early Access" and that would make sense, it really doesn't seem finished.

Fun and relaxing. Switches the brain on while being able to relax. Highly recommend to those who like management and sim related games

Очень милая бездумная кликалка. Подходит, чтобы провести пару часов в амебном состоянии. Хорошая музыка и белый шум от толпы.

This is a great little tavern game without any yuck. I had a lovely time.

rolled my eyes when they started making me hire researchers to unlock new items. i thought this was supposed to be a medieval tavern?

For a game that starts off really strong, "Tavern Master" overstays its welcome by about 8 hours. The premise is your basic business simulator: Start the business, own terrible furniture, sell things, get money to upgrade, buy better furniture to sell more things. The game is stable and the process is pretty straight forward. The soundtrack is especially noteworthy, which came as pleasant surprise in plain vanilla version. The problem is the poorly scaled research track. About halfway through the game, you get introduced to the importance of certain types of customers. Some of the research requires arbitrarily large numbers of X types to the point of slowing down progress into repetitive game days. I ran the game on its fastest speed for about 2 game months at the end, just to complete research as fast as possible. The early and mid-game aspects are great. There is a constant tension of getting everything to balance. I think the easiest fix would be a second research track that can run concurrently, letting you grind a hard one while still focusing on short term projects like improving your menu or optimizing the waitress allocations. Once you run out of projects and money is no longer a problem, "Tavern Master" shifts from a builder to an idle game with decorator tools. I'm giving it a thumbs up since the positives do outweigh the negatives, but this purchase should be price conscious. I spent $4 on it via the Summer Sale. It's hard to be mad at that price level.

Fun and relaxing game. I enjoy spending hours playing this game.
