About
Build and decorate your tavern, hire staff, stock your larder, meet the locals, be the boss and run the show! Whether you keep a cosy neighbourhood taphouse or a lean, mean gold-minting machine, the choices - and consequences - are yours.

Dozens of intertwined game systems create unpredictable emergent situations. Dirt, heat, noise, flammability, sickness and of course, a parade of colourful customers all keep the unexpected coming.

Today’s situation: Half of your staff are in bed with sleep-sickness. Orders are piling up and patrons’ tempers are getting heated. So is the tavern - because it’s on fire! A spark from a broken lantern landed on just the wrong patch of dirt with no one around to notice. Oops, perhaps it’s time to call the fire brigade...
An expansive narrative campaign lets you build taverns across a vibrant world full of your favourite fantasy cultures. Each new location brings fresh challenges and surprising stories. Meet immortal elementals, outwit halfling philosophers and aid a crazed orc inventor.

Experience a magical storybook fully-narrated by Steven Pacey. Encounter hundreds of bite-sized stories with a surprise at every turn. There’s always someone needing the guidance of a Tavern Keeper like you. What choices will you make?
Decorate every nook and hollow of your tavern to create everything from bustling taprooms to relaxing reading corners. Place and manipulate thousands of items anywhere with complete creative freedom and make the tavern of your dreams.

Go beyond decorating and become a master artisan by using Tavern Keeper’s powerful Design Mode to craft unique furnishings. Combine pieces, add magical effects, then share your creations with the Tavern Keeper community.

Play the single-player campaign your way with adjustable game mechanics and storyteller settings or play in Freeplay for a custom challenge. Pick Challenging and strategize over every decision, barely making it through each day, or play a Relaxed game running the tavern of your dreams without pressure. The choice is yours.
Made by Greenheart Games 💚 (Game Dev Tycoon), a tiny independent team, Tavern Keeper is a passion project more than a decade in the making. Every detail is handcrafted, from the art, sound, writing, animations, down to the 3D user interface and many quality-of-life features. We took no shortcuts to bring you an experience like no other. Come on Inn!

Already a really solid game! Can't wait for more areas and functions to be added, but already 50+ hours of high quality fantasy sim and really good story-telling <33
Ein Spiel mit ganz eigenem Charme, die Charaktere sind witzig geschrieben und die Geschichte wunderbar verrückt. Es fehlt hier und da noch ein bisschen am Feintuning und Inhalt, aber es halt auch noch Early. Freue mich auf jeden Fall auf jedes neues Update, weiter so!

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 22 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,513 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

This took me right back to the days of Theme Hospital and Startopia. It's genuinely the loveliest thing I've played in quite a long while. I did not think I would like the heavy story stuff, and briefly considered just playing freeplay (which is also a delight so far) but I gave it a chance and it was FANTASTIC. After I turned off the narrator voice. No offense but I feel like the writing is meant to be much drier than he's playing it. I read it like I read Douglas Adams or Terry Pratchett, and it's just never the same read aloud, everyone plays it up to much.
This game is really nice and cozy. The controls and mechanics are easy, yet fun to learn. Also the art-style is easy to look at, too!
I like it, very cute and cheerful. Do wish there was more story lines, more scenarios and more maps.
Extremely well made and I am looking forward to new updates
Eeeekstra!
Love the humour and art style. Relaxing, not boring, filled to the brim with details. 10/10
I am proud to announce that now im addicted to alcohol
