The core loop focuses on strategic resource allocation. You start by setting up a basic room with standard decorations. As players finish their sessions, use the revenue to decide whether to improve your current theme's quality or expand to handle more foot traffic. Efficient management of the lobby and puzzle sequence is crucial for a high reputation score. Eventually, you can unlock automated managers to handle daily operations while you focus on large-scale expansion.
