About the Game

Welcome to the yard!

In this game, you inherit an ancient villa burdened with shadowy debts. You’ll manage a hotel and hire diverse staff members including Death, a dragon, a Spirit Hunter, and a bioroid maid. Enigmatic guests will arrive, each bringing their own mysterious events. Build your wealth through various methods like mining, adventuring, alchemy, and restaurant management, while adjusting your strategies based on the predictions of Oracles.

*Caution: Consulting Oracles may decrease your sanity level!

The fate of the world will be shaped by your decisions, and your staff may fall for you based on your choices. This game offers up to 23 different endings.

The Hotel

Making money is great!! Making money is joyful!!

What’s that, lose some sanity for the sake of earning money?

The Building

This dilapidated villa can be transformed into a luxurious hotel!

As a boss who's ruthless to customers but kind to employees, you'll customize rooms specifically for your core staff!

...Wait, why is Death sleeping in a pit?

The Beautiful Yard

Please ignore the man-eating plant.

Kindly expedite the excavation of the mine and forest.

Pay attention to every guest visiting the courtyard and listen to their Oracles to gain extraordinary powers, but be sure to manage your SAN value to avoid confronting the truth too soon.

If you see a giant cat covered in eyes, please ask the front desk for a sick leave note.

The Forest

Beyond the hotel lies an expansive forest.

With proper development, it can provide a variety of ingredients for your inn's restaurant.

Food and Alchemy

Place some indescribable animals and plants in specific containers.

Chop finely.

Add some magical spices from foreign lands.

Incorporate some special minerals.

It is essential to keep the right temperature from the flames.

"Are you talking about alchemy or Eastern mystical culinary arts?"

"Both."

Assist the guests in the yard, and in return you’ll receive diverse recipes from around the world.

Alchemy

By enhancing your alchemy skills, you can boost the workshop's production.

Pprioritising collecting alchemical formulas will enabling you to craft exceptional items,

Recruit Employees

Bioroid Maid

One day, you discovered she was once human (???)

Death in Tower

After confessing, "I need to repay 9999 ounces of high-purity souls to the Death Tower," she brandished her scythe.

Will you choose to slaughter your guests to repay her debt?

The Dragon Alchemist

Don’t tell her that by the fifth month of your training, your alchemy skills surpassed hers; the proud red dragon will become angry.

The Spirit Hunter (Chef)

— Regardless, her knife skills are excellent.

A rich game experience and a fantastical dark world await your exploration.

Game was not quite what I was expecting - not eldritch style management game with rpg elements. It’s rather very chinese title, that’s 80% very simple management sim, 15% simple dating sim, 5% minesweeper (yeah, really)
