I built out a bedroom, a top-floor shared bathroom (that was honestly kind of gross), a strategically tucked-away utility room for the heater, and a kitchen where I could serve up meals for guests.

In a pre-defined two-story lodge (just one in the demo, but more in the full game), you’ll trace out distinct room layouts, add doors, and fill them out with the requisite comfort items. The resource-gathering mechanics are a tad basic for my liking in that it’s a lot of just one-note clicking and waiting, but I was pleasantly surprised with the building mechanics. I’ll save you some time: there’s a toggle on the hotbar to hide ceilings and walls sometimes you’ve got to check back in with Barbara before you can move onto the next step, even if the next step seems like it should be doable right now you can find stone bricks down south, and they’ll replenish over time. There were several moments where I tripped myself up by not quite knowing what precisely to do or where exactly to go. Once you accumulate enough items, you’ll be able to freely build out rooms in your B&B and welcome guests. In the early portion, I spent a lot of time picking up trash (to trade with an NPC for decorative items), rummaging through scrap (for crafting resources), and plucking plants (for eventual cooking). It’s just buzzing with detail, yet everything seems readable at a glance. With guidance from a kind old woman who innately gets the gist of your bear lingo, you’ll rebuild Pinefall Resort room by room, one guest at a time.Ī laid-back bed-and-breakfast management game is a wonderful idea, and I can’t say enough good things about the art direction, which looks great in screenshots and even better in motion. Well, not quite - it’s more like a few once-great buildings full of junk and lost dreams. In it, you play a mild-mannered bear with a hat (who can also wear shorts!) who has stumbled onto the perfect woodland retreat.

I’ve come out of E3 2021 with too many games swirling around my mind, and Steam Next Fest - a gathering of hundreds of demos for upcoming PC games - sure isn’t helping.
