Welcome back!

After a short break, we return with a handful of new updates. First and foremost, we would like to share with you the latest news regarding the work we are currently undertaking. The most significant of these is our work on the room rating system. This mechanic will directly impact the room rental price per day, in short, determining how much you will earn from the most crucial element of the motel - renting out your renovated and appropriately decorated rooms. The system will tally and classify each room, assigning it a corresponding number of stars, which will enhance its prestige, and consequently, your profit. Contrary to appearances, this will be simple and intuitive, and you will learn more about room classification in the game itself and in the accompanying smartphone application, where you'll find a guide to assist you in managing your motel.

Additionally, taking into account the feedback we received regarding wall painting (specifically, that it was too simple and required only one click to paint an entire wall), we have decided to refine this mechanic. It is now more comprehensive and time-consuming, but we believe the end result justifies the effort. We're not taking shortcuts; we're striving to enrich every aspect of the game to ensure that the pleasure derived from playing it is maximized!

Thank you for your support, and we encourage you to continue following our progress. Together, we're creating a better version of our simulator!

Best regards,
Red Phoenix Interactive
