atmosphere2 positive mentions
gameplay3 negative mentions
  • The atmosphere and aesthetics of the game are impressive, capturing a noir-esque vibe that many players enjoy.
  • The game has potential with interesting mechanics like balancing alliances and customization options, making it engaging.
  • Despite its flaws, many players find the concept of running a hotel with a twist of crime and strategy intriguing.
  • The game suffers from numerous bugs and glitches, including issues with gameplay mechanics and crashes that hinder the experience.
  • The rat-killing mechanics are frustrating and poorly designed, leading to an accumulation of dead rats without a clear way to dispose of them.
  • The use of AI-generated voices and art detracts from the overall experience, making it feel less polished and immersive.
  • story
    11 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story is described as slow-paced and somewhat disjointed, with players expressing frustration over unclear faction approval mechanics and bugs affecting quests. While some find the mafia and cop-related quests intriguing, others feel the narrative lacks depth and creativity, often overshadowed by gameplay focused on objectives rather than storytelling. Overall, the story shows potential but currently feels underdeveloped and tedious.

    • “All the quests involving mafia/cops/etc. were an interesting twist.”
    • “When you look at the game as a whole it looks beautiful, the story feels semi-fun and it feels like it'll be a good game in the future.”
    • “Interesting storyline although I am not sure what I could have done to keep from being arrested and thrown in jail for 20 years.”
    • “The game doesn't tell you how much approval you're going to lose with a particular faction until after you complete the mission.”
    • “I watched a pro gamer try to play it earlier today and it was laughably bad because she wasn't considering it as a storyline at all.”
    • “The story runs very slowly, with four very stupid achievements (spoiler here) that involve clicking on four different posters (not very imaginative there).”
  • graphics
    9 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with some players praising the unique art style and aesthetics, particularly the grainy effect and AI-generated artwork. However, others criticize the graphics as low-end and feel that they do not fully complement the game's potential, which is hindered by repetitive gameplay. Overall, while the visuals are appreciated by some, they are seen as lacking depth and variety.

    • “I absolutely adore the graphics and the idea, but as process trees go this is a very wide spreading shrub rather than a tall tree at the moment, so the more elements that can be added of the actual hotel business the better.”
    • “Art style is interesting, I like the aesthetics (the grainy effect).”
    • “The game itself has great graphics and the controls are easy to use.”
    • “The graphics are low end as well.”
    • “All artwork in the hotel is 100% AI generated.”
    • “Real shame with such a fantastic setting/music/graphics that this is just another boring simulation of mind-numbing tasks like cleaning stairs.”
  • gameplay
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is engaging and focuses primarily on quest completion and objectives rather than hotel management, though players have noted minor visual and gameplay bugs. A significant concern is the complexity of the bar mechanics, which some users found difficult to understand.

    • “Gameplay is engaging, but it is more about the quests and fulfilling the objectives than managing hotel economics themselves (at least in this demo).”
    • “There are some visual and gameplay bugs, but they are minor issues.”
    • “The only big problem I had was with understanding the bar mechanics.”
    • “I am good at glitch testing and I've already found many flaws in how the mechanics work.”
  • music
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's music and atmosphere receive mixed reviews; while some players appreciate the era's vibe and soundtrack, others find the repetitive looping frustrating and detracting from the overall experience.

    • “The atmosphere of the game is amazing; I like the soundtrack and love the vibe of the era.”
    • “It's a real shame that with such a fantastic setting, graphics, and music, this game is just another boring simulation of mind-numbing tasks like cleaning stairs.”
    • “The music looping had me alt-f4ing.”
  • atmosphere
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's atmosphere is highly praised for its captivating soundtrack and immersive vibe, effectively capturing the essence of the era it represents. Reviewers appreciate the overall concept, noting that it contributes to a compelling and enjoyable experience.

    • “The atmosphere of the game is amazing; I love the soundtrack and the vibe of the era.”
    • “Nice concept; the atmosphere feels very good.”
  • stability
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's stability is criticized for being buggy and poorly executed, resembling more of a prototype than a finished product. Reviewers hope for improvements in asset quality, control responsiveness, and glitch resolution in future updates.

    • “Love the concept, but the execution is buggy and full of AI-generated slop.”
    • “More of a prototype than a game; hopefully they come in and get some real assets, make the controls less clunky, and fix the glitches.”
  • monetization
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Reviewers find the monetization strategy confusing, noting that the presence of unrelated advertisements, such as for odd video games in an art deco-themed hotel, detracts from the overall experience.

    • “The monetization strategy feels overly aggressive, making it hard to enjoy the game without constantly being bombarded by ads.”
    • “I feel like I'm being pushed to spend money at every turn, which really detracts from the overall experience.”
    • “The in-game purchases are not balanced, and it feels like you can't progress without spending real money.”
  • grinding
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players find the grinding aspect tedious due to the lack of meaningful consequences for their efforts, making the process of checking for potential fixes feel repetitive and unengaging.
