New Investigation System
• Added hidden clues and inspectable objects throughout the motel • Players can now discover pieces of the story by exploring rooms • A new discovery progress tracker shows how much of the story has been uncovered • Clues persist across playthroughs so players can gradually piece everything together
Environmental Storytelling
• Added new items that can be inspected, including personal belongings, documents, and other remnants left behind • Objects are placed across rooms and the office for players who choose to explore • Some clues only appear under certain circumstances
Expanded Interactions
• Drawers in motel rooms can now be opened • Additional objects and locations can now be investigated • Exploration is now a more meaningful optional activity during the night shift
Atmosphere & Immersion
• Adjusted certain character dialogue to better hint at the motel’s history • Added new environmental details throughout the motel • Improved subtle narrative cues to help players connect events
