Bear and
Breakfast

Bear and Breakfast (2022) is an adventure strategy game where you build a bed and breakfast in the woods. You play as an aspiring bear host, renovating a dilapidated area in town into one fit for tourists. However, there is an underlying darkness in the woods and you are warned not to disturb the wildlife.

Bear and Breakfast lets you design and upgrade your bed and breakfast to improve guest satisfaction and fulfil their needs, for example, food orders and special room requests. You can improve how much money you get from guests by customising them to meet their criteria for individually planned bedrooms, bathrooms, dining rooms and entertainment. You then need to bring guests to stay and keep them happy to maintain your reputation, earn tips, and attract new customers.

Along with the strategy of creating your bed and breakfast, there are other objectives and storylines that provide new customisations for your inn. It’s a world rich in lore, side quests, characters, and secrets.

The result is a game of two halves. You are running the bed and breakfast or you are out on your adventures helping the locals. The challenge is balancing these two activities to maximise your profits. At heart, it's a simple game, that best suits players who enjoy some repetition and rhythm rather than surprises or an extreme challenge.
