Our take on Deadwater Saloon
The saloon premise receives the main emphasis, but the game also devotes substantial attention to personal conditions, marriage, reputation, relationships, and morally severe choices outside routine business management.
What is Deadwater Saloon?
Run a saloon in a developing frontier town while managing a customizable character and the business.
Set attributes such as Mixology, Seduction, and Sneakiness, maintain reputation, marry, and deal with disease, aging, sanity, and addictions. Expand the building with spaces including bordellos, opium dens, gambling rooms, and porches, then furnish it with tables, chairs, bars, pianos, and other objects. Stock alcohol, food, guns, and opium; research drinks and food; and hire workers for jobs such as bartending, cooking, serving, music, and security. Interactions with townspeople and visitors can produce friendships, romance, blackmail, abduction, or murder. Events involve nature, customers, preachers, gangs, and stronger enemies in longer event chains.
