About this game

A mysterious tavern with a deadly secret! Check-in to this magical tale of murder and mystery where not everything is as it seems. Explore the tavern in secret or in style, meet and mingle with guests and staff, wield weapons and magic and uncover clues before the killer strikes again!

"Evertree Inn" is an immersive 265,000 word interactive experience by Thom Baylay, where your choices control the story. It’s entirely text-based--without graphics or sound effects--and fueled by the vast unstoppable power of your imagination.

What will you do when an overnight stay in a highway tavern turns into the biggest mystery of your life? Will you rise to the challenge, or will you resist your destiny? Are you in it for the money, for the thrill of the chase or are you secretly hoping for romance? Enter an open world, where the choices you ignore matter as much as the ones you explore and where every interaction has a reaction. Choose your path as elf or dwarf, human or halfling or even the elusive brownie and find out if you have what it takes to survive the night at Evertree Inn?

Ratings and reviews

I first gave this game 5 stars back in 2017, and after playing a multitude of choice and hosted games since then, I had to come back to write a review. This game is my all time favorite choice of games. First of all this game is a mystery, which makes your first play through the most important one. Characters are interesting and have depth and the two romances really stand out. Each stat takes you on a different path to solve the mystery. It is a well written compact story, and while there is a sequel in the works, Evertree Inn can fully stand on its own. This story is the best of choice of games, its friendly to new readers because it is shorter compared to the other behemoths, the romances are solid, and the amount of freedom to reach the end is quite refreshing. If you do get this game you should try to solve the mystery on your first go~

This game has a lot of replayability--not only are there multiple endings, there are a lot of branching paths with the different characters and the varying protagonist abilities. A lot of fun and worth the money if you like a good fantasy story, though I will say that there are some mechanics that are a little TOO fiddly for my taste. There are a couple miniscule choices that can prevent you from completing a goal entirely, and some of the outcomes require HIGHLY specific actions by the player.

Very good, fun story as are most from this developer. It has an added features of the ability to boost different capabilities such as magic & combat, & a mystery to solve. I've noticed in a couple of these stories that occasionally your choice won't match up with the right outcome or it will at least be a bit off. In this story my character was doing great & walked out of a building on her own but the next page says she was rescued. That really irritated me so I knocked off a star. Still love it
