The Motel

Game information

In The Motel, players take on the role of an overnight employee at a remote roadside motel in Oakhill Grove. The job seems simple enough at first—handling guests, keeping the place tidy, and dealing with the occasional small task. However, as the night stretches on, eerie events begin to unfold, changing the calm atmosphere into one of uncertainty. A radio broadcast warns of a dangerous individual on the loose, heightening the sense of paranoia. With each passing hour, the motel, which once seemed like a peaceful stop, becomes a place full of hidden dangers.

Navigating Tasks and Decisions for Survival

As the game progresses, players are given a list of tasks to complete throughout the night. While doing so, players must stay vigilant, noticing strange occurrences that might hint at the increasing danger outside. Simple actions like serving customers or petting the motel’s cat become more loaded with suspense. Players must make decisions that affect the outcome, balancing the need to complete their responsibilities with the looming threat. With multiple endings based on choices and actions, the game keeps players on their toes, as every decision could lead to survival or doom.

A Blending of Humor and Tension

The Motel combines light horror with moments of humor, creating a unique experience. While the atmosphere becomes tense as strange events unfold, the quirky elements of the game—like the interactions with the lobby cat—add a layer of contrast that keeps the experience engaging. As the clock ticks down, players must adapt to both the eerie and unexpected, as well as manage their duties in a hotel that’s far from ordinary. The mix of ambient horror and dark humor makes for a dynamic and immersive game that keeps players guessing until the final moments.
