    Ainda esta muito bugado, mas é de longe um dos melhores jogos de gerenciamento que já joguei. Sem contar que tem nudez, que melhora ainda mais. hahaha

    Crossroads Inn is a game that I have been waiting for for a long while. The simulation genre is a favorite of mine, and as a lover of fantasy settings, this was right up my alley.

The simulation genre is a favorite of mine, and as a lover of fantasy settings, this was right up my alley.

    However, the gameplay itself is clunky at best. The tutorial isn't extremely helpful, and weirdly enough, the people do not match their portraits at all. The sound is also a little funky, as you hear very loud gulps of ale and almost nothing else can be heard over that sound. Furthermore, the characters sometimes glitch out, but that's to be expected from a small company of a game that just came out.

    On the good side, however, there is a lot to be said. The gameplay is extremely unique for the genre. The management you have to do for your inn is very in-depth and immersive. You have to order supplies regularly, and micromanage a lot of things all at once to be a successful Inn. The music isn't too bad, although it has shotty soundtrack transitions at times. The storyline in the main campaign is actually really good and makes me want to keep playing to find out what happens. Your choices actually matter and shape the politics of the region.

    All in all, there are clunky things, sure, but these can be surpassed and the game can still be enjoyed at a high level.    … Expand

    I actually enjoyed this whole thing. Sure, it's kind of crude, has ridiculous pathfinding and general mechanics errors (although the team patched up most and I suppose they keep working on it).
    Pros: the idea rocks! The idea behind mechanics and joining a story to it, also rocks!
    Drawn graphics and their feel,, you go girl! But, there's always a but. Or a few in this case: my biggest two    I actually enjoyed this whole thing.

    But, there's always a but. Or a few in this case: my biggest two issues are a bit non transparent ui that makes you look for stuff in all the weird places. Also managing workers is a pain.
    And the graphics. I mean the 3d, it's kind of realistic/naturalistic but the topic on the other hand isn't at all + it doesn't stick with the 2d graphics. I'd probably go with some sort of caricature, or cell shading next time... The graphics as is remind me of "Banished" a low cost one man made strategy (surprisingly nice one too!)

    All in all, if you like sim games, go for it (with a bit of trust credit)
    If not, you will probably want to kill it with fire.    … Expand

    If it weren’t for the swarms of technical bugs that ruin much of the gameplay experience, it would be an exceptional tycoon – deep, innovative and simply fun. [01/2020, p.52]

    At its current state, Crossroads Inn is a niche project plagued with technical difficulties, spoiling the good impression from the game. It can be a lot of fun when it is working as intended but at the same time annoying when it does not. The game could have benefited from a lengthy Early Access/testing stage.
