Tidehaven: Ale & Trade

No offline progress. Clunky UI. And sooner, rather than later, you will encounter quite a few annyoing bugs. Like archievements not unlocking, cant clean the tavern anymore, etc. Then there is also the thing that the dev dissappeared and stopped communicating for 2 months already. Game seems to be abandoned. You have been warned.

It's okay, the graphics are good. The gameplay is bland, with not much to do besides waiting. Games of chance like rolling dice or guessing coins don't make the game more engaging because they only reward money, and eventually, money becomes irrelevant. There's no cooking animation in the warehouse or kitchen, the chefs and staff just stand there. This makes the game feel low-quality, simplistic, and incomplete. This game really needs more activities, like player can ride horses, fishing, plant trees, or fight vs bandit.

Well.. I played more than I intended, but that was because of acheivements-- only to learn that it was buggy or soft locked. I could not make more progress as I have reached the end of my game. While I really was enjoying the game, I love desktop games of all sorts-- this ong has potentional.. but it appears to be abandoned? I left it semi-idle sometimes to gain more resources, as these games normally go... but certain acheivements are not obtainable due to the game's early access... and I guess the developers have gone months of silence aswell? I have no idea what this means. It is a cute lil game, great to start and a bit grindy for resources, and it feels little progress can be made... I did most of the game within a session.. without knowing it, I was done within 22 hours? If you play for achievments, better move along from this one. (please let me know if you CAN complete the list at this time. I really do want to enjoy this game.)

Don't buy it, the game is incomplete!!!! Another moneygrab promisse

game breaking bug: the maid that clean the table always keep stucked at the bottom of the screen. i.e. no new table cleaning no new customer no income. so every time i open a game i can only earn 1 round of money and have to restart. ridiculously stupid.

Personally I don't understand all the positive reviews, this has to be the most boring "idle" game I have played. I understand its still in early access, maybe there is more content to come, but I do not recommend this for now.
