The Utsuro Hotel
You woke up in the stairwell. You don’t remember checking in.
The Utsuro Hotel is a retro first-person horror roguelite where the building decides where you go. You wake in a stairwell with twelve doors and one goal: reach the roof. No door tells you which floor it opens onto, and you only find out once you’re standing in it and the lock has turned behind you. Find that floor’s key to get back to the stairwell, or gamble on the elevator, which is faster, breaks down every time, and doesn’t let you choose where it stops.
The floors hold still: generated fresh each run, then fixed for the whole of it, so everything you learn is worth something. Where the long hallway bends. Which floor buries its key at the dead end. Which door someone is waiting behind. Then you die, the hotel rebuilds itself, and none of it is true anymore.

Hotel Amenities
Key FeaturesTwelve doors
Twelve doors, twelve floors, bound on first contact and revealed only after the lock turns behind you. You choose blind and pay on arrival.
A new hotel every run
Generated fresh each run, then fixed for the whole of it. The mapping is real, the memory is real, the mistakes are yours.
Floor-stamped keys
Each key opens one floor and no other. Fumbling the keyring is the scariest thing in the building.
No combat
Nothing here can be fought. Only understood, or avoided. Every threat keeps its own rules, and none of them are written down.
An honest elevator
Get the power back on and it takes you up. Then it breaks down. Every ride. It does not take requests.
A merchant, of sorts
Keys and second chances, paid for in coins you pull from the things chasing you.
