Take a Load Off, Stranger, in Dungeons & Dragons: Long Rest Tavern

Dungeons & Dragons: Long Rest Tavern embraces the spirit of the beloved franchise, empowering you to create your own story as you open your doors to the most fearless heroes on the Dalelands, a wild, ancient and fertile part of the continent of Faerûn. Don't risk your life slaying the dragon – feed the fools who try and quietly profit from their spoils.

Your tavern is more than just a respite for your guests; it's where they'll find their next quest. Thoughtfully lead heroes from behind the bar, assigning challenges for them to take on based on their party composition. Your decisions influence how their quests will end.

Cook, brew, and experiment with exotic and ethically sourced ingredients to discover bold new flavors. As you develop your tavern, you'll continue to unlock an eclectic, inspired menu of offerings to help heroes recover from each outing. Mastering complex recipes is key to attracting and accommodating an array of patrons spanning many species and classes, making any adventurer feel welcome to pull up a barstool. As your tavern grows, you'll also encounter a rival innkeeper eager to push you into reaching your full potential. Keep your wares stocked, your menu rich in variety, and your wits about you – you never know when the next rush of customers will bury you in orders for a hot meal and a cold pint.

Earn coin by tending to the whims of weary travelers, keeping your coffers stocked and ready to fund upgrades or expansions as your business grows. Rich customization options enable you to make your tavern your own. Add artifacts or mementos honoring those who helped fund your thriving getaway, shaping a home away from home for the land's bravest warriors.
