Motel Heat

A hotel career gone wrong sends you back to the run-down roadside motel you started at, with nothing to show for the years in between. The people you left there haven't gone anywhere, and neither have the problems.

Rebuilding the place means digging up money, fixing what's broken, and dealing with the familiar faces still hanging around, whose unfinished business with you didn't stay professional for long. Days that start as chores around the property tend to end somewhere more personal.

Play is management by day, courtship by evening: patch up the motel, keep the money coming in, and work through the women who never left, one conversation and one small favor at a time. Nobody here is a stranger, which is exactly the problem.
