For once, you're not the main character. Do NOT experience a cool world filled with secrets and monsters. Instead, give that job to somebody who's really gonna enjoy it.

Please read the instructions below!

Instructions

Goal of the game:

As an NPC innkeeper, give quests to brave heroes. The better the quest fits with the hero, the higher the chance they can and will complete it. Too difficult and they will DIE. Too easy and they will be too bored to do your quest.

Gameplay:

Every day, heroes will come to your tavern to pick up quests from you. Once they complete the quest, you will have to pay them in gold in exchange for goods that go into your inventory. Every fifth day, a trader will come to your inn and buy all resources from you in exchange for gold.

On the left, you can see the hero's stats and levels. In addition, heroes earn stars for each finished quest. On the right hand side you see a quest contract. Drag tasks, difficulty and resource blocks to create a custom quest for every hero. At the bottom of the contract, you see a preview of how much you have to pay out to the hero when they fulfil the quest, how much of a resource they will give you in return - and which stat requirements are expected of them. Match the stats to the those of the heroes to increase "Fit" - the likelihood of the heroes finishing the quest. Give your hero a task that is too difficult and they will be killed in battle. Give them a task that is too easy and they will find it boring and refuse to do it. The duration stat shows how much time it will take the hero to return.

When a hero returns you will not see their stats anymore and instead just the fulfilled contract. If you have enough gold to pay them they will take the money and give you the resources they collected. If not, you lose. Manage the duration of the quests wisely and keep an eye on the payout!
