What can a fantasy hero do when his glory days as a warrior are over?

Join Emyr and his friends on a whirlwind adventure to find out!

“Barbarous - Tavern of Emyr” is a brand-new time management game unlike any other!

Emyr was once the realm’s most famous hero. That is, until his career was destroyed by a dreadful wound feared by all adventurers! Robbed of the chance to defeat his archenemy whom “no hero can defeat”, Emyr awakens in a shabby tavern without a single coin to his name – as its new owner! Sure, Emyr knows a lot about drinking at taverns. But what about running one? Surely this isn’t a role for a leading hero… is it? And to make matters worse, now a teenager claiming to be his daughter has shown up!
Will Emyr be able to get his adventuring career back on track?
Will he defeat his dreaded foe once and for all?
Will he rise to the challenge of responsible parenting?
Old habits die hard in this comical adventure!

🍺 Join Emyr on his final quest to defeat his archenemy at last;
🍺 Experience a time management game in a fantasy setting;
🍺 5 unique taverns, each in a different place, visited during Emyr’s travels;
🍺 60 engaging levels, offering hours of unique gameplay;

🍺 An atmospheric soundtrack.

Ratings and reviews

I enjoy time management games and checked it out. 1st, it's awful to make people think something is free only to let them get to lvl 13 and spring it that they have to pay for the game or a subscription. $10 is a bit steep but I really wanted to see the challenge. There was no challenge like in other games. No upgrades to equipment and building restaurant. Beat it in 3hrs. If you are gonna pay, buy sub for same $, play all the games & then unsub. Not worth it otherwise.Wish I could get a refund

I love Bakehouse games and apps so far. This game has been great. I love it. Keep up the good work. I'm glad it did not follow the format of Emily's Bed and Breakfast with matching three to progress through the game. The only drawback I can see (and I'm at the beginning) is it seems to only download the first 8 levels. It says you need to subscribe to play and I am a subscriber. We'll see if it just a space saver and you get the next levels when you get there or not. But it's a great game so far

It is a very fun game...however, I uninstalled it because it doesn't have the option to watch ads to continue play. 😥 If they add this feature, I will gladly redownload and play it. I used to buy EVERY single Game House game that came out (especially the Delicious Emily and ones like this game), but with the pandemic and loss of income I can't anymore. But I don't mind watching ads to be able to play...I help in some way and get to play.
