What to study

Where Manage Inn is the ledger, this is the inn itself, and the design decision is how little interface it needs. The camera looks into a hillside dollhouse of eleven rooms on four tiers, and the only chrome in the frame is the lodge's own banner planted outside: crossed keys over a bed count (7/7, full) and a crown count (+136, earning). Everything else is communicated by the rooms. Occupancy is a row of tiny portrait chips pinned to a room's corner and the guest visible inside it; room type is furniture, bunks, a kitchen counter with hanging pans, a tavern barrel, a training-room punching bag, so a player audits the business by looking at it, the way you'd walk a real inn. The banner matters because the game has two of everything: this is the Seaside (blue) lodge's hill, and its twin in green waits off-screen right, the rivalry expressed as two dollhouses sharing one building. Frame at 0:33.0 in the TGS trailer (Steam), a manual extraction found via the dense filmstrip and the 32.5–35.0s fine scan (the trailer pans the hill; this is the settled Seaside framing).

Screen inventory

• the inn is a dollhouse cut into the hill: four tiers of rooms float on black earth, bunk rooms and double rooms up top, shared rooms mid-tier, and a working ground floor of shop, dining hall and kitchen above a training room, tavern and café
• the lodge's banner hangs outside the hill at left, doing all the chrome's work in one object: the Seaside crest (crossed keys, goat skull, fish), a bed icon at '7/7' and a crown at '+136', full house and the day's take, readable without opening a menu
• occupied rooms declare themselves in-world: tiny guest portrait chips pin to the top-left corner of a room (one, two, then four chips as rooms fill) and the guests themselves stand inside, a green lizard in one bunk room; a girl, a purple cone-shaped creature and a staff-bearer sharing the wide room
• facilities are drawn, not iconned: the kitchen has its counter, hanging pans and checked tablecloth; the tavern its barrel, banners and candle tables; the training room a punching bag and weapon rack, each room type is identifiable from its furniture alone
• no HUD frame, minimap or button exists in the view: the banner's two numbers are the entire interface layer over the simulation
