Hotel Anatolia

Great looking game, sound & atmosphere were amazing. The puzzles were super easy and not too difficult but the game kept bugging out, crashing and things didn't always work properly. I can't fully recommend it, but, maybe try it on sale and go in with low expectations or just skip and try anything else.. I'd skip if I could go back in time.

This is a game that sells itself on decisions affecting the story but in all reality there's only 2 binary paths good and evil and the whole game and both endings can be achieved in like 30 minutes. There's 0 buildup to who the protagonist or his wife are, so why should I care about them? The hotel itself is given such a barebones nothing explanation, who is this maniac who saved the owner, what is this "spiritual realm" the owner refers to and how was it created? We are given little fragments that don't build up to anything and just like that the game is already over. Not to mention, the English translation is bad, stiff and also aids in ruining the immersion. I guess they get 1 point for the clever morse code puzzle but everything about this game is pretty boring and dull with straightforward puzzles. The endings are also pretty unsatisfying. I will say they at least succeeded at putting in moody music and some cool scary sound effects, but that's about it. I would only recommend this for people who enjoy collecting trading cards, or to achievement hunters looking for a very easy 100%, it's an amateurish game and even for .49 cents it's not worth the waste of time for most gamer…

Hotel Anatolia is a short psychological horror adventure built around isolation, mystery, disturbing imagery, and choices that can shape the direction of the story. Developed and published by Elven Workshop, the game follows Aras, a traveler who arrives at Hotel Anatolia with his wife after a tiring journey. What initially appears to be an ordinary overnight stay quickly collapses into a nightmare when Aras awakens to discover that the hotel has changed dramatically. Its previously normal surroundings have become ruined and bloodstained, hostile creatures roam the building, and his wife is nowhere to be found. From that point forward, finding her and discovering what happened become the driving forces behind the adventure. The hotel itself is one of the game's strongest elements. Rather than relying on a sprawling world, the experience uses confined rooms and corridors to establish a feeling of being trapped somewhere that has suddenly become unfamiliar. Exploration gradually exposes more disturbing details, while the transformation of an everyday location into a hostile environment gives the horror a surreal quality. There is a psychological dimension beneath the immediate threat…

It's a great game with an excellent story and multiple endings to discover. It's a bit short, but the story is incredibly deep, and every decision we make affects the ending—I really loved it

Hotel Anatolia is a simple indie horror game created with RPGMaker. It is a short, but well thought game based mostly on it's storyline and less focused on it's gameplay. It's 2D pixelated graphics and gameplay are very simple yet enjoyable. The game is tremendously similar to another indie game, The Deed. SO similar in fact, that the characters and graphics are directly imported over! Ignoring that, I still found the game able to pull off being eerie and fun at all times. Will last you a good hour or slightly more. Do enjoy, as I am recommending it to indie gamers alike.
