About This Game

Hotel Galactic is a cozy management game where you transform a rundown intergalactic hotel into a thriving tourist destination. Blending wholesome nostalgia with modern fairy tale magic, Hotel Galactic invites you into a lovingly crafted world inspired by classic anime pictures, brought to life with stunning hand-painted visuals and beautifully animated details. Whether you’re in for uncovering heartfelt stories or diving into its rich sandbox gameplay, Hotel Galactic offers a magical journey that continues to grow long after the tale is told.

Guided by the ghostly presence of Grandpa Gustav, you’ll uncover the mysteries of his tragic past and help him find peace. Torn between a love he once lost and a burning desire for vengeance, Gustav’s story intertwines with your journey to rebuild the hotel into a thriving colony. But as you grow, the powerful Galactic Peace Corps watches your every move, ready to respond to your business practices and the choices you make. The path you take will shape the lives of your staff, guests, and Gustav himself, creating a tale of connection, growth, and redemption.

Express your creative vision as you design and customize every aspect of your hotel. Use modular building mechanics to construct sprawling, unconventional structures towering over the cosmic island. Fill your hotel with an extensive collection of furniture, decorations, and amenities, and watch your quirky creations come to life. Each action takes time and effort, making every step of the process rewarding as you gradually transform your rundown hotel into an architectural marvel.

Optimize your hotel layout for smooth operations and an unforgettable guest experience. Strategically manage resources, develop your workforce, and adapt to the evolving demands of a growing colony. Generations of workers will carry forward the skills, traits, and stories of their predecessors, helping you to build a lasting legacy over time. Gear up your peeps, set action priorities, assign tasks, and enjoy watching your bustling world come to life.

Your hotel sits on a magical, floating island drifting through space, filled with life and mystery. Cultivate lush gardens, nurture bonds with fantastical creatures, and harvest alien ingredients to create mouthwatering dishes. Every connection you form with the island - be it tending to alien plants or befriending creatures like the Moonkels and Yetlets - shapes the hotel’s success and fosters harmony in this living world.

Innovate and expand with your smartest staff by crafting and researching new tools, equipment, and technologies. Adapt your hotel to cater to a variety of unique races, each bringing new challenges and unlocking different research paths that shape your approach to hospitality. Discover hidden resources and delve into the island’s underground complex to unlock new materials, creatures, and construction spaces. Every choice brings new opportunities, allowing your hotel to grow and thrive in unexpected ways.

Embark on a magical journey to restore Hotel Galactic, making it a beloved destination for travelers far and wide. Balance heartfelt storytelling with creative gameplay, experiment with fresh ideas, and watch as your hotel flourishes under your care. Whether you’re crafting a serene escape or exploring a world of culinary wonders, Hotel Galactic is a cozy, narrative-driven experience unlike any other.
