Haunted Space Hotel Manager, rendered as if the board were on the 50-inch round table in front of you.
Not a menu of moves. The table IS the interface: tap the room to staff it, the orbit card to draw it, the action tile to take that action, the hex to rotate it. Every legal move you have sits on the piece of furniture it belongs to, lit up where you would reach for it. The only buttons are the things with no home on the board — end your turn, skip, lock a hex, clock out.
Look at it however you like. The perspective camera is the seat you are sitting in; drop to the click-through overhead camera to read any player’s board, the orbits, or the central Snohe hex straight down, then go back.
Fill the chairs with people or with Megan, the AI that has been playing this game since long before it had a 3D table. Six humans, one human and five Megans, or anything between. Dice rolls and events take the screen when they land, so nobody misses the thing that just happened to them.
Every seat stands up as the species of the faction it drafted — the Hex, the Dread, the Deep, the Honored, the Seed and the Stem — arriving one by one through the opening faction ceremony and turning to face the table as you move round it.
The rules core is the same adjudicator the game has always run on, playing the published manual — not a re-implementation written for a phone. If the board says a move is legal, it is legal because the engine says so.
One device opens the table and everybody else joins from their own copy on their own device; any chair nobody takes is Megan’s. On the same WiFi it is device to device and touches no server at all. If the people you are playing with are somewhere else, the host can open the table over the internet instead, and a four-letter code is the only thing anybody types. No accounts, ever — the host is the only source of truth.
The whole game is free forever: every seat count, every rule, Megan in all six chairs, and JOINING somebody else’s table. The one purchase unlocks HOSTING — one person at the table buys it and everybody else plays for nothing.
