A Fair Wind opens with its new staff of recently retired adventurers:
Ogrim Stormbane, the ex-Fighter (now Lookout)
Melkor the Gray, the ex-Bard (now Crafter)
Lucia, the ex-Swashbuckler (now Chef)
Meave, the ex-Ranger (now Hunter)
We discover a little more about them, and how they have begun to settle in and find their feet in these new lives, and then an old friend visits them and they have a chance to show off the tavern and the town itself.

The adventurer’s life is tough. It’s time to call it quits. For years you stumbled through hostile lands, living off stale rations, and struggling to get a few hours’ sleep. Now it’s time to hang up your weapons, sell off your armor, and settle down. If only it were that easy…

Stewpot: Tales from a Fantasy Tavern by Takuma Okada is a collection of cozy mini-games that tell the story of a tavern run by former adventurers. Gather your dice, pick up a deck of cards, set aside a shiny coin, and get ready for a new set of challenges. Only this time… your adventures start behind the bar.

Stewpot is divided into a series of slice-of-life scenes, with a different set of simple rules and prompts helping adjudicate each scene. You might be scrambling to cook something edible with random ingredients, bartending for troubled souls, calming down a tavern brawl, going shopping for all the things a tavern needs, and more! Work to upgrade your tavern’s cuisine, atmosphere, and service. In the process, you might just learn a little bit about yourself – and your fellow party members.
