The Lost Art of Innkeeping

What a gem to come across. I was not expecting to enjoy running an inn as much as I have. Short and small, but lots of fun.

Fun little game with some decent amount of depth. Never felt overwhelmed or rushed, which isn't uncommon for me with these kinds of games. Cute, charming little story and decent characters, for what this game is. Looking forward to trying NG+ mode out some time.

A lot of charm and personality is housed in this game's overall design and writing. Feels like a point-and-click adventure with how quests are handled. The innkeeping simulation is simplified but in a good and cozy way. I like that rooms are customizable and the guests who come around every few days have real personalities. The achievements list is integrated into the game, which makes accomplishing them feel like a mini quest to strive toward for overall completion. Unique and polished little game and I look forward to returning to and playing it. Always nice to see a fresh and unusual concept.

super cute rpg maker game it's not really for me as i'm currently searching for actual management sims and i found it interesting that something made in rpg maker has a mechanic such as... managing your own inn... so i gave it a try it's cute and i recommend others to try it i'll keep it in my library and i'll play it again after i've satisfied my management sim need :)

Queria muito gostar desse jogo, parecia ser exatamente o que eu estava procurando. Infelizmente achei um pouco monótono, alguns dias não tem nenhuma interação diferente, só a de fazer o checkin e o checkout dos hóspedes.

This game turned out to be surprisingly entertaining and addictive. I finished it in a little under four hours, so I assume I missed out on some things, but I still enjoyed myself a lot. The graphics are very simple and I had to get used to them a bit but this clean, reduced look is not bad at all. As you develop your inn further, by buying curtains, antique items or hanging up pictures, the appearance of the inn changes accordingly. It's just nuances but very nicely done and it was fun to see different decorations etc. appear. Game mechanics are simple and everything is explained very well. You get instructions when a new feature comes up and in your bedroom you also have a book shelf that contains all this information in one place, so when you want to reread how something works, you just go to that shelf and click on it. Most things are quite self-explanatory anyway. New locations open up gradually so it never gets boring in spite of the simple gameplay and somewhat repetitive tasks. It's fun discovering locations and meeting people. The main quest is to get the inn in shape and make enough money to repay your inherited debt but there are lots of little side quests that keep you busy. None of it is very challenging, the game does a lot of handholding. It's a relaxing little game. As mentioned, some bits were a bit repetitive but there were enough other things to add versatility. Some of the controls were a bit cumbersome (for example you can't just click on something and then the character goes there and looks at it, you first have to walk the character there and then click on it) but that was not a big issue. The end was a bit lacklustre in my opinion and I don't think there is much replayment value as the most fun thing was discovering the locations and tasks, but you get good entertainment for the price. It's obvious that dedication and care went into the game, it is well-made and offers a lot.

Excellent game
