Evaluation

Tavernier launched on August 25, 2016 as a complete tavern management and interactive story game. The developer posted a bug fix and French language update on March 23, 2017, and their last communication was on March 28, 2018 — an announcement promoting a new, separate game called Harmonium. That post made no mention of any planned content for Tavernier. There are no unreleased DLC listings, no roadmap, and no developer statements indicating further content was ever planned for the game after launch. The store description describes a self-contained experience with multiple choices and endings, consistent with a finished product. The developer has been silent on Tavernier since March 2018, and no outstanding commitments exist. The game launched as a complete package and remains so.

About this game

Tavernier

Tavernier is a mix between a tavern management game and an interactive story, in which you are in charge of a tavern in a medieval fantasy world.

You have to make your business prosper - which implies some supplies and decoration management strategies - while paying the inevitable annoying weekly taxes. But being an innkeeper also means talking directly to your customers. So, be prepared to welcome quite the colorful characters in your tavern, and be careful what you say to them. The way you respond to their problems could impact not only your business but even the whole town!

So will you be a nice, fun guy, or will you be the stingiest person on Earth? Where will your choices lead you, you and the increasingly fishy town that you live in?
