Hello Hoteliers!
It's officially less than 2 weeks until we open the doors to the 1.0 version of Hotel Architect, after nearly a year in Early Access, and I hope you're all as excited as we are! Whilst we wait for the grand opening, each week we'll be showing a teaser of what you can expect in the 1.0 version. As promised in last weeks blog, toady we are focusing on one of the new locations: The Black Forest.
Known as the 'Schwartzwald' in German, The Black Forest is a mountainous region in Southwestern Germany. The Black Forest is a place of dark secrets and old mystique, and hidden deep within these ancient woods stands a once-grand mansion. Now abandoned and slowly being reclaimed by nature, your task will be to transform this massive property to its former glory.
The Black Forest truly is a massive property, with a lot size of 48 x 48 and the ability to build across 4 floors... which makes it the biggest map yet! As you will now have the ability to build beautiful gardens and balconies, we can't wait to see what you will create here...
Will you go all in on profit, squeezing as many guests in this hotel as you possibly can, or build a verdant garden oasis that your guests can relax in and enjoy? Well, it's entirely up to you!
Like every scenario, there will be a whole new set of rewards to unlock, check out a preview of a few of them here:
Alongside the addition of a German location, we are thrilled to announce that Jannika Jira (also known as the voice of Martha, in Martha Is Dead) will be voicing the role of Anna in German! We can't wait for you to hear her bring the character of Anna to life!
Here's some behind the scenes shots of Jannika Jira in the Toneworx recording studio, Hamburg:
Here are some of the new features you can expect:
We hope that you've enjoyed reading this small teaser of what's to come in the Black Forest, as well as the behind the scenes of Jannika recording the German voice over for Anna!
For next week, I want to give you the chance to vote... do you want to hear more about the Custom Sandbox mode, or the new London location? Let us know in the comments below!
