About the game

What you do in a play session

In a fantasy world torn by endless wars, the Cavern Tavern is the only refuge where heroes and adventurers can relax — and you're the poor soul who has to serve them! In this dice worker placement game, each player takes on the role of a tavern employee, trying to impress the grumpy boss, Nasty the Dwarf, while serving drinks, gathering ingredients, and fulfilling orders. With 21 locations to place your dice-workers, you'll need strategy to prioritize tasks, manage resources, and, of course, sabotage your coworkers when possible. The faster you deliver orders, the more points you earn, but delay and your reputation with the boss plummets. Do you have what it takes to be the best employee in this chaotic tavern?
