The goal of the game

It all starts when you wake up in your room as guests of a crazy hotel. Initially, the only way to survive is to figure out how to get safely (and sane) out of the Lovecraft Hotel. To do this, you must search the different rooms of the hotel, which will transport you to so many strange places worthy of the strangest and sinister stories of H. P. Lovecraft.

However, due to the quirks of the Hotel, each player's personal goal could change throughout their search for an exit. And it can turn into something dangerous, unexpected, or even twisted.


Who are you at Hotel Lovecraft?

The guests

Each player is a guest at the Lovecraft Hotel. Before beginning, they must roll some dice to create their character's characteristics: Intelligence, Reflexes, Vigor and Spirit.

They also have a reserve of 10 Health and Reality points.

If any reach zero trying to escape, the character is dead or lost in the depths of madness and will never leave the hotel.

The host

During the game, the host reads the game book for each room, reads the entries for decisions made by other players. You can set who will read the gamebook between one of you, or you can take turns in the role of the host. In the case of a fixed host, it is recommended that the host player not bring any guests.

Supported by the game book, the host can elaborate their descriptions and bring to life the characters, the events and the journey itself through the hotel rooms.

How to play?

After choosing whether the host is going to be a permanent host or you are going to take turns reading the book, each player creates their guest character by rolling the dice and determining their characteristics. In 5 minutes you will be ready to enter the Lovecraft Hotel!

On the table, you have the exit letters on the ground floor, and the elevator letter on the sixth floor at the end of the corridor. You shuffle the rest and place the required number of cards for each floor (it changes depending on the number of players). The remaining letters are arranged in the envelope in the basement.

Each room card has been specifically designed to evoke the strange and twisted journey through this Lovecraftian hotel.

Choose a key card to represent each guest. You start on the sixth floor of the hotel. If you achieve your goal and exit, you win. If not, the Lovecraft Hotel wins, locking you forever in its twisted rooms. But it's not as easy said as done. A player begins his turn. The host of that turn (or the fixed one) reads or plays the first act. Both the beginning, as well as the acts and cad
