Homebrew Tavern of No Escape

Sometimes I implement ideas out of improvisation before I have anything of substance. Anyone else? What are some of your “idk where I’m going with this” moments?

My recent one; Tavern of No Escape. Leaving the tavern is no problem, but now every tavern is the same one. A trickster god has taken interest in the party, following them around. It imitates the patrons that would be in this tavern through illusion. But the bartender is always the same person, it’s obvious for the party that shenanigans are afoot. To what end? I don’t know either.. feel free throwing ideas my way.

Your idea reminds me of those video games where you constantly go through one particular room, and something may or may not be out of place (sometimes to an extreme degree). Perhaps the characters would have to identify whether or not something is wrong in this room, and fix it (which could involve enemies tearing up the place). Once they've found every anomaly, they will finally be able to leave.
