Night of Strange Guests is a logic puzzle game about a small haunted hotel where every visitor has their own habits, fears and dangerous secrets.
During the day, you place guests in rooms: common travelers, witches, bards, knights, princesses, aristocrats and vampires. At night, the hotel comes alive. Bards make noise, ghosts frighten the guests above them, witches perform rituals, knights drive away dark creatures, and vampires look for helpless victims.
Each chapter has a goal: earn enough gold, avoid losing guests, set up a special chain of events, or survive several nights. There is not always a perfect answer. Sometimes you have to decide who is worth protecting and what risk you can afford before dawn.
The game includes handcrafted story chapters with gradually introduced mechanics and an endless mode where you try to survive as long as possible.
How to play
During the day, guests arrive at the hotel. Choose a guest from the queue and place them in a free room. Guests who are already checked in can be moved before night begins.
Read each guest’s traits and think about who can survive the night together. Some guests prefer dark rooms, others enjoy sunlight. Some like quiet neighbors, while others pay more near a knight or an aristocrat. And some guests create trouble of their own: bards make noise, witches perform rituals, ghosts scare the guests above them, and vampires hunt helpless commoners.
When you are happy with the layout, start the night. In the morning report, you will see who paid, who left without paying, who died, and how the hotel changed.
Complete the main goals to finish a chapter. For a perfect result, try to complete the extra goals too. In endless mode, your task is simply to survive for as long as you can.
