Golden Krone Hotel

The worst hotel experience ever. First, when arriving, there is no lobby, I couldn't check in. After wandering for a while I was attacked by a pale man who bursted into flames after stepping into sunlight. There are wild animals roaming the halls, and the only normal looking people I've met were smelly mercenary types carrying weapons and mumbling under their breath. There is no elevator, I had to crawl up the stairs again and again. At some point I felt lightheaded and blacked out. After coming back to my senses my nails were ruined and I felt the taste of blood in my mouth. The only good parts of this establishment were food (mostly included curry and ale) and the music played from some hidden speakers. Overall I rate my experience 2/10, I would never come back but... It feels like I must... Again... And again...

Quite simple and lean roguelike, pretty easy (at least on normal) but still requires careful play, mechanics are reduced to its essentials, each run is short and can be completed in 2 hours or less. Based on those characteristics I didn't think I would enjoy it much, but the short runs won me over and I'm having fun trying out different classes, it's a great roguelike to pass time when you're not in the mood to jump into something more complex or that demands more time. Quite enjoyable soundtrack too.

Simple controls and inventory, but nice depth in gameplay. Theme is nice and unique.

Very restrictive. Can't even make your own character. All but one class are locked at the beginning.

They made every character black lmao

Golden Krone Hotel is a game that reminds us that sometimes the most memorable journeys are the ones where we are not entirely sure what is happening, where we are going, or whether the person standing next to us is actually someone we should be talking to. There is something wonderfully mysterious about this hotel. You arrive, you explore, you observe, you make decisions, and slowly you begin to understand that the ordinary appearance of the place is perhaps not quite as ordinary as it first seemed. Every corridor feels like it could lead somewhere interesting, and every room carries the possibility of another small discovery. What I particularly appreciate is the atmosphere. Golden Krone Hotel does not need to constantly shout at the player that something important is happening. It creates a quieter kind of tension, the feeling that there is always something just slightly beyond your understanding. You continue exploring not because the game promises you an enormous reward, but because you simply want to know what is behind the next door. And this is where the game succeeds. There is a certain charm in its simplicity. The experience never feels like it is trying…
