What's in it

Events

  • Plan events for your resort: book the right venue, hire contractors for the night and set up the equipment. Boost items raise the hype, and hype fills the room and sells the tickets
  • Theater Show: a scripted stage play with a cast and crew. Cast your leads and an optional King, use Star Appeal and Talk Value, and go prime time for a bigger crowd
  • Marching Band Parade: a band marches floor by floor along your route. Snare Drummers, Tubists and Color Guard, paid in tips from the crowd
  • DJ Battle: two DJs go head to head for the crowd
  • Fighting Night: a live combat sports event with a loyal crowd that stays late
  • LAN Party: a PC gaming event with long sessions and lots of snacking
  • Live Karaoke Show: guests perform live for the room and for viewers at home
  • Book Launch: an author shares and signs their latest release
  • Neon Paint Day: guests paint each other and the walls under UV lights
  • Live Concert: one of the biggest attractions, drawing in brand new guests
  • Comedy Special: stand up in a seated venue, where the front row may become part of the show
  • Business Meeting: a hosted corporate event that keeps rooms busy on quiet days
  • Cocktail Unveiling: the bar puts a new signature drink in the spotlight
  • Menu Premiere: the restaurant puts new dishes in the spotlight

Calendar and trends

  • Calendar: manage events, check current and upcoming trends, and see the day and week of the month
  • Trends and anti-trends: each week, guests want some things more and others less

New rooms

  • Main Lobby with an Information Desk: the front door every resort needs before it can open
  • Nightclub: a bar by day and a club by night, with a Resident DJ or a Guest DJ, Disco Ball, DJ Set, VIP Booth and Dance Floor

Room structures

People

  • New performers and staff: DJs, Comedians, Pianists, Singers, Pole Dancers, Pharmacists and Store Clerks, plus event contractors

Running the resort

  • Opening your resort: the Main Lobby is the master switch, with a one-time opening day celebration
  • Vending rebuilt around Cuisine Menus and Vending Menus
  • ATM: guests use it now and then, and you keep a small fee
  • Billboards: get an advertising license, sign contracts with companies, or promote your own businesses
