The day has come, future Tavern Keepers! 🍻
🎉🎉🎉 THE DEMO IS NOW AVAILABLE 🎉🎉🎉
For a limited time, until July 29th, you can play the Tavern Keeper Demo!

The Demo is a hand-crafted experience, separate from the full game, in which the narrator is looking for the main character of Tavern Keeper. Will it be you?
Apply for the role in the cozy village of Halflington where the narrator quickly tests you on some basics while showing you around.
Then, after navigating your first encounter with a hero, it's time to open your own pub in the backwater swamp area of Riverbottom.
Afterward, you can try out the Design Mode and run your tavern for a few days however you like. Will you offer more services, find the hidden coin or even earn your first tavern star? It's up to you! 🌟
Finally, at the end of the demo you will be asked to make one last choice.
What will YOU decide?
Announcing the Tavern Keeper Narrator
The good news continues: we are excited to announce that the narrator, and therefore the many, many characters featured in the game's interactive stories, are voiced by none other than Steven Pacey!
You might know Steven's work from the many audiobooks he narrates, for example from Joe Abercrombie’s fantasy works, and several books of the Doctor Who bibliography, to name just a few. Recently, he’s also been featured on House of the Dragon, World of Warcraft: Battle for Azeroth, and Love, Death & Robots.
Steven brings his phenomenal vocal talent to voice our hugely diverse cast of characters and interactive stories. At a time when many experiment with synthetic AI voices, we cannot overstate how important it is for us to have real artistic mastery to drive our unique narrative experience in Tavern Keeper.
And you can experience the narrator right now. The Demo is fully voiced and contains several interactive stories for you to explore: from a challenging hero encounter to a skeleton in an after-life crisis.
Go and play the most important role of all: the Tavern Keeper!
We hope this little Demo shows you our vision for the game and makes you excited for the Early Access release coming in Q4 2024.
Head over to our official Discord to chat and tag @TavernKeeper on X with your screenshots! 💚
Cheers! 🍻
