Dungeons & Dragons: Long Rest Tavern gameplay screenshot showcasing the cozy tavern environment

Rather than sending players on yet another perilous trek across the Forgotten Realms, Dungeons & Dragons: Long Rest Tavern offers a charming twist on high-fantasy storytelling. This upcoming management sim flips conventional tabletop tropes on their head, elevating the humble innkeeper—traditionally relegated to an ambient non-player character—into the centerpiece of a vibrant tavern-keeping enterprise.

Aspiring proprietors will construct and customize their establishments from the ground up. Keeping the business thriving involves orchestrating every facet of hospitality: recruiting capable waitstaff and bartenders, concocting hearty culinary recipes, and brewing signature libations for the weary wanderers traversing Faerûn. Bustling night shifts generate the gold needed to upgrade the venue and purchase supplies, while daylight hours provide ample downtime to explore the surrounding wilderness and scout for fresh resources.

When rare delicacies or arcane crafting components prove too dangerous to gather alone, players can turn the tables on visiting parties. By issuing quest contracts and bounties, you can dispatch seasoned adventurers into the wild to secure elusive ingredients and tackle external threats on your behalf.

Dungeons & Dragons: Long Rest Tavern is scheduled to make its debut on PC in 2027.
