The turn-based tavern management mechanics are interesting and refreshing, combining various tactics that keep players engaged.

Some gameplay elements, such as the cooldowns and resource management, can lead to a frustrating experience if objectives are missed.
The initial music choice for the main menu feels out of place and may detract from the overall tone of the game.

The music in the game is generally well-received, with most tracks fitting the overall atmosphere; however, the main menu music has been criticized for its odd and somewhat silly tone, which contrasts with the game's darker themes of hosting rival factions.
- “A thing that's odd is the choice of music for the main menu, which I can describe as very suspicious.”
- “I know what the characters in the game are doing isn't right, since they're literally hosting an inn for two rival factions to stay in, but the music itself makes things look... silly.”
- “Now the other music in the game actually sounds fine.”

The gameplay is characterized by a mix of tight mechanics and strategic puzzle elements, offering a unique take on tavern management within a turn-based framework. However, some players find the overall loop to be overly simple and lacking in reward, leading to a somewhat boring experience despite the witty dialogue and interesting concepts.
- “Tight gameplay, witty banter, and the occasional dip into Sara's unique sense of morality.”
- “Very interesting concept for a tavern management game that's packaged in a turn-based model with a variety of mechanics at play that add varying levels of challenge to the operation of the tavern, which overall leans much more heavily on strategy and puzzle elements.”
