Obviously the game is nice in his conception, I mean a game where keep a tavern and feed your customers with food you made, the fact you can go on quest and deliver food to people outside. Sounds great, on the paper...

Once you get to explore, the map is really empty, beside the few enemies in each "biome" and the 4 forgettable npc's. The npcs who gave quest are almost usefull if you want to upgrade some of your stuff, but once you did the three to four boring quest (like preparing a erection potion... yes that type of erection) well that's all folks. that sum up to: bring me ingredient, now bring me prepared recipe, now destroy that type of enemy, now bring me back more food cause, F it, you're suposed to be my food provider, even if you have better things to do.

Even with a slight upgrade, the IA of enemies are quite simple, you just circle around and bash the button to attack and watch the poor thing dies without retaliations. And have to farm like a ♥♥♥♥♥ tons of boar/frogs/bear etc to collect enough to get some cash.

Once you unlock the farm, the scarecrow will ask you to make some weed (yes that kind of weed) and once you finish his three quest, you can now prepare to sow and plants new vegetables. hooray... BUT it's tedious as F. Not that the task is difficult, but it's ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ long for nothing to just replace every tile when you could just put seeds and water them. Wich lead to the next problem:

Everything is tedious for nothing. Most of the time it seems that the game make you do lots of useless things just to keep you playing it. Bucket of water is emptyed quite rapidly, even with the upgrade leading you to buy like three of them to be sure to get water from the well wich is slow as F. especially when you have like 15 guys waiting for their corn soup. Every machine you buy will tend to break up after ten uses. So same things, you have to mash up a button every two time your machine is in use, wasting more and more time especially when you make a multiple machines recipe. you have also to put on the menu, while it's a good idea on the paper. Well, if you don't check your inventory and Check what's still on the menu and unCheck what's not, you'll lose plenty of time too. Unless you tend to sell the same carrot juice over and over and the same frogs legs over and over. But that would make you less money on long term.

Cleaning is quite boring too, sometimes what to clean is obvious like cobweb inside the tavern, sometimes it's not, like cobweb outside the tavern. and I must say, breaking a broom for having cleansed dozens of cobweb feels odd. wich make you buy another broom. great more coins to spend.

Unlocking the pen is probably nice, but chickens tends to leave it and multiply like lemmings but their eggs is effective to sell, and when you understand that, you clearly just have to water their bowl and feed them grain and watch your profits getting real high and sell thoses eggs and never care anymore about money. Ruining the concept of keeping a tavern. Since you get too much money with egg selling.

the fact you can buy owls to do the cleaning and the service is usefull, but make for the least the game easier to deal with... nothing more or less to do. Aside from do the 3-4 quest the few npcs gave and buy more cobweb breaking broom.

If the game was an alpha build, I may recommend it. But right now, this game feel nothing more like a mobile game developed in a month like a cashgrab. Sorry but you have so many games to play that feed on tavern keeping vibes wich are better than this.

You can kinda tell it was voiced and written by ai, so it all feels stiff there, but the game itself is alright. The gameplay loop is fun with friends, but after a while it felt pretty bare bones. Ultimately, I think it's worth on sale, and with friends especially, otherwise a pass.

6 hours and all tavern stuff is done.
The second part of the game is to unlock the fighting part but I'm not impressed.
