After a successful Kickstarter and Steam Greenlight campaign, Epic Tavern has entered early access on steam. Epic Tavern is a fantasy tavern simulator, in which you run a bar that is on the brink of closure when you acquire it. Your goal is to take care of the fantasy heroes who come to have a drink and sleep for the night, while also talking them into going out on quests in a group for you while taking a cut for yourself.

    Could be fun though I'll wait to see if they launch.

    It looks unique. I like that. It reminds me of Recettear mixed with the ideas from older RTS like Majesty with not being able to control heroes.

    Haha that's an awesome premise.

    Man, I would love it if MMORPGs integrated this somehow.  A system where player-owned taverns spawned quests that the owner could offer up to visiting players.  :D

    Would probably be gamed to the point it got nerfed into oblivion, though.

    Yeah that would be amazing. But you are 100% right. Just like any system in any game that can be abused people will abuse it every chance they get. Like the emperor system in ESO or creating dungeons in any game that supports it.

    (Edited my post for autocorrect changing nerfed to merged)

    It's a shame, really.  If this game is popular enough to get a cult following, then there would surely be a minority of players willing to play the same function with real folks, assuming the real folks didn't act like asshats about it.  Which is exactly what a small percentage of them would do.  :/

    Sounds a lot like the several gladiator management games out on Steam, only with heroes instead of slaves and drinks instead of surgeons.

    Oh! This seems like a neat little game.

    A man who fears nothing is a man who loves nothing; and if you love nothing, what joy is there in your life?

    10$ or 15$ is ok, but not 25$.

    Wouldn't it be cool if a game was made based on Chalmun's Cantina? Yes, yes it would.

    I could see where this would be part of an existing MMO, but as a solo game sounds really lacking.

    Sounds fascinating, but not $25 fascinating.  It sounds right around $15 fascinating.

    I'll wait for a steam sale.

    This is essentially what Garrison/Order hall system WoW has is. Difference being only npcs are used, and not other players. Closest thing to player made content like this i know of is NWO. Neverwinter Online with the player made quests. You actually get a nice chunk of exp from doing them and some people are really creative with it.
