Welcome back after a long break!

Recently, we’ve put a lot of effort into introducing new mechanics and reworking the map to align it with the gameplay we have planned. Instead of just writing about it, we’ll show you a few screenshots from the game that showcase the current state of our work. Of course, a lot will still change, but this will give you an idea of what we’re planning to bring into the game.

In short, you’re essentially getting three games in one from us. 😊
Yes, that’s right!
You’ll be able to serve your guests in your motel shop, on the beach, and, of course, as guests in your rooms. In addition to the fun of renovating, which will be the first stage of your gameplay, in the later stages you’ll have plenty of work to do to earn money for further renovations and upgrades to your motel!

Our priority is to create the game in a way that makes the gameplay as relaxing and engaging as possible for you. The mechanics won’t be too complicated but will still be complex enough to provide a challenge and give you satisfaction from playing.

There won’t be any skill trees or unnecessary experience points here. Why? Because this isn’t an RPG! It’s a relaxing simulator that allows you to manage a motel in a charming tropical setting inspired by the eastern coast of the USA, but in a more intimate atmosphere. 😊

We hope you’ll enjoy the results of our work so far. As we mentioned, we’re continuously working on improving all the details of the map and mechanics, while also introducing new elements to make everything as consistent with our vision as possible and to ensure you have the most fun!

Your team,
RED PHOENIX INTERACTIVE

And this is how your reception might look after you renovate it! Of course, this is just one option – the only limit is your imagination. :)
