About the Game

Short description:

Hotel Stardust is a horror anomaly game for solo players or two-player online co-op. Stay the night, photograph every anomaly, and the $1,000,000 prize is yours. Photograph something that was always there and your camera breaks. Some anomalies don't want you to check out.

Full description:

Would you like to win $1,000,000? Survive the night at the Hotel Stardust, capture all anomalies, and the prize is yours. Be careful, some anomalies aren't very friendly.

Rules of the Game

Walk. Observe. Compare against what you remember.
If something is different, capture it with your camera.
If something is chasing you, shoot it with your camera, then run.
If nothing is wrong…are you sure? Then head into the loop.

Features

Dozens of handcrafted anomalies, from subtle out-of-place changes to full set-piece scares. No two runs play the same.
Photograph to win: capture real anomalies, but a false positive breaks your camera. Mistakes don't end the night, but they decide what kind of ending you get.
Some anomalies don't want you there. Getting caught starts the night over.

The Hotel Stardust is waiting. The prize is real. Check in whenever you're ready.

Two-Player Online Co-op

The Stardust takes guests in pairs too. Bring a friend.

House rules for a duo:

One shot of film each per round. Some rounds hide more than one anomaly. Collaborate to clear them out.
A broken camera isn't the end. If your partner still has film, the round can still be saved.
The door opens together or not at all. When you both believe the round is over, you commit as a pair. Both hands on the door.
If something hunts you, formalities are off. Photograph it mid-chase and make sure both of you get through the door.
Only getting caught ends the night. Wrong photos and missed anomalies don't reset the run, but if either of you are caught, the night starts over for both.

Co-op is online for two players, invite a friend through Steam. Prefer to check in alone? The full game is also built for solo play.
