About
Within the domed city of a nearby future, Kai the bellhop rides the elevator of Arima Lodge, the hotel he works at, up from the ground floor to get a relief. However, after a secretive man rushes into the elevator and compels him to get to the 100th floor —the rooftop— instead, he starts to realize something very serious is amiss.
Arima Lodge is a free to play short 5-minute-long story with a locked camera that occurs completely within an elevator. It has limited dialogue options from the perspective of Kai the bellhop, and QTE events on screen to open and close the elevator doors whenever a new character enters.

簡潔有力的短故事,不知就裡地開始緊張起來。
A very short (six minutes) but fun game.
Nada mal para un juego con la durada de 5 minutos, donde solo hay un escenario (el ascensor), pero que con los pocos diálogos que tiene, te presenta una buena trama y personajes, vale la pena invertir ese tiempo.

Це не гра, а якийсь перформанс. Вас закидують у ліфт, де після херового QTE забігає мужик та вмоляє вас відвезти на дах. Далі забігають все більше пасажирів, пояснюючих чо ми взагалі їдемо на дах. Ууу, інтрига. Яка тупо не працює, бо немає якогось сюжетного повороту, чи принаймні висновку\філософського контексту на крайняк. Або принаймні передісторії. Тому як цікава ідея - так, але реалізація на рівні шостикласника. Все одно гра коротка та проходиться за 4 хвилини напевно, зіграйте самі
Arima Lodge delivers a short but memorable experience driven by atmosphere and a sharp presentation. The story has a lot of potential, centering on several characters trapped in a hotel elevator, each with their own background and urgent destination. You’re only given brief glimpses into their lives, leaving you to fill in the gaps with your imagination, which adds to the intrigue. Despite its very short length, the atmosphere is tense and effective. The ticking elevator sounds and quick-time responses build constant suspense and urgency, making the situation feel complex and dramatic almost immediately. However, I wish the game was a bit longer and offered a stronger sense that player choices truly mattered. More impactful decisions would have added depth and replayability. It’s a five-minute panic play — ten if you play it twice — and well worth that time.
不错的游戏
短篇小说该怎么写? 我不知道是不是集显的原因,i7-6567U 笔记本的 Iris 550 核显,对话框跟不上字幕。
A short but intense game that keeps you on the edge of your seat until the very end
Игра длится меньше десяти минут, а саспенсу нагоняет только в путь. Прелестное ар-деко, идеально подходящая музыка, щепотка юмора. Особенно порадовало, что сюжет ушёл не в ту сторону, что я мог предсказать. Стоит упрекнуть за невозможность проиграть (при несоблюдении тайминга лифт просто возвращается в ту же точку), отсутствие альтернативных ответных реплик и один-единственный выбор, и тот ни на что, кроме спокойствия вашей совести, не влияющий. В общем и целом, та бесплатная игра, напротив которой стоит поставить галочку. Вердикт: [b]7/10.[/b]
short 5 minute game, still a great play. soundtrack was very good, made me a little anxious
