Women-Led Games Showcase: Tavern Talk Stories: Dreamwalker

Trigger warning: mentions of death, grief, and violence.

Gentle Troll Entertainment announced their next game — Tavern Talk Stories: Dreamwalker! This upcoming Dungeons & Dragons-inspired visual novel brings a new standalone entry to the Tavern Talk series.

Set 36 years before the events of the first game, in the bleary portside town of Southeast Phesoa, players will become the owners of The Drowsy Dragon — a small bar on the coast of Borkam!

Fate is not written in the stars — at least, it isn't until players pour them a drink! Thanks to a unique ability, mixing magical drinks can alter the date of the guests. Sit down, listen to their stories, and influence their lives!

Here's what you can expect from Tavern Talk Stories: Dreamwalker:

• A new standalone game set in the Tavern Talk universe that builds and refines on the previous game's mechanics.
• A Dungeons-and-Dragons-inspired visual novel.
• Influence the fate of characters by drinks.
• Turn rumours into quests for the customers.
• About six hours of reading experience on the first playthrough.
• Branching narratives with a total of three endings.
• A relaxing and casual drink-mixing game.
• LGBTQ+ representation.
