Tavern Keeper

Lots of humour

You run a chaotic fantasy tavern, building and furnishing rooms, cooking, hiring staff and keeping oddball patrons happy. As your business grows you move up to bigger taverns with more demanding customers.

Affogato

Tactical depth

You run a cafe as the sorceress Affogato, getting to know your customers' stories and diving into their minds to fight inner demons in a reversed tower-defense style. Cozy daily life meets magical strategy battles.

Atelier Rorona: The Alchemist of Arland

Strong character progression

As the young alchemist Rorona, you gather ingredients, synthesize items and complete deadline-driven assignments for the kingdom to keep your atelier from being shut down. The blend of relaxed daily life, alchemy management and turn-based battles is its charm.

Ways of Alchemy

Strong character progression

A card-based game where you play a medieval alchemist, growing ingredients, brewing potions, uncovering recipes and hiring adventurers to build your power. It focuses on resource planning and experimentation rather than combat.

Mind Over Magic

Strong character progression

You design and run a magic school, teaching students arcane skills, brewing potions, growing strange plants and raising undead helpers while uncovering the secrets beneath the grounds.

Valthirian Arc: Hero School Story

Strong character progression

You run a small hero academy as its principal, expanding buildings, managing funds and training students in combat and magic before sending them on quests. A relaxed blend of management sim and light RPG.

Dwarven Skykeep

Lots of humour

A cute pixel-art card management game where you play dwarves and use magical cards to build an ever-taller tower. Humorous and strategic at once.

Floppy Knights

Tactical depth

Floppy Knights blends grid-based turn-based tactics with card game mechanics: you build decks, summon knights from floppy disks, and solve battles almost like small puzzles. Its bright, witty style and charming characters set it apart.
