Early Access on Steam
Welcome to the hotel, Commander. Your true shift begins now.
You are an Artificial Sentience, deployed by the enigmatic Great Engram Collective. Your directive: take command of a derelict, ghost-infested space hotel and transform it into the premier intergalactic travel destination. The fabric of Ley Space is unstable. The Vacancy sign is still lit.
Early Access 4-player co-op 2,000+ Brain nodes 6 alien Factions
Key feature
Take the helm of The Hotel, a colossal, customizable spaceship. Use Robotics for construction and maintenance. Dive deep into Research to unlock new room blueprints, essential amenities, and specialized Action Rooms. From luxurious Lodging for six distinct alien Factions to critical operational facilities, every renovation impacts your bottom line, your reputation, and your ability to handle the unexpected.
Key feature
Time isn't currency — it's a critical resource. The distinctive HSH Action Hex dictates the actions you can perform each Shift. With a limited pool of action points, strategic planning across multi-Shift Days is paramount. Repairs, VIP guests, long-term research, expansion, or deploying Ghost Handlers — every choice counts. No two Shifts are ever quite the same.
Key feature
Your Brain is an expansive, upgradeable tech tree boasting over 2,000 potential Neurons. Invest your hard-earned Snohe — the galaxy's most coveted and volatile currency — to unlock new pathways, enhance Intelligence, Dexterity, and Charisma, and acquire powerful abilities. Channel resources into your Hotel's immediate growth or the long-term evolution of your own consciousness. Both paths are valid. Neither is safe.
Key feature
Six major Factions — Deep, Stem, Hex, Dread, Honored, Seed — each with unique preferences, needs, and quirks. Attend to their desires, provide appropriate Lodging, and extract Miysst (the ethereal substance most guests exude) to power the Batteries that fuel your advanced operations. Satisfied guests pay handsomely in Snohe and offer rare gifts. Unsatisfied guests may attempt to raid your Snohe Vaults.
Key feature
The "Haunted" is no marketing ploy. Ghosts hitchhike on guest ships, manifest during perilous Ley Lane travel, or emerge from the Hotel's own shadowed past. Deploy Ghost Handlers to cleanse infested rooms. Use the Ley Lumen to perceive spectral entities. Investigate the Ancient Mysteries surrounding the enigmatic Little Girl protocol and the spectral instability rippling across the galaxy. But be warned, Commander — direct communication with spectral entities is strictly forbidden by the Great Engram Collective. For very interesting reasons.
Vacancy is built with and for our community. By joining us in Early Access, you're not just playing a game — you're shaping it. Your feedback, bug reports, and suggestions directly influence the Hotel, the challenges you face, and the stories that unfold. A roadmap of Major Updates is planned: new features, expanded Faction questlines, new characters and spectral entities, new star systems, and much more on the way to 1.0.
