Your Room

Your Room ...yes, that is a banana plant.

#### Basic Description

When you first arrive at the Harem Hotel, there is a room set aside for your use, too. The story does not specify exactly where this is located but it is directly accessible from The Lobby, 1st Floor, and 2nd Floor via the stairwell menu.

Your Room is rather simple and consists of a bed, a dresser, a door, and a computer, along with buttons for direct access to the Front Door of the hotel which is helpful if you want to avoid triggering events by entering The Lobby. Despite the apparent simplicity, the array of options and events present makes this the most complicated room in the game -- appropriate for someone managing a hotel and harem!

From Your Room you can access the Front Door menu (using the blue button at the bottom of the screen), or use your Room Door menu to proceed to the rest of the hotel (with direct access to The Lobby, The 1st Floor, The 2nd Floor, or The Dungeon.) *Note: A few Main Character or Side Character events are triggered when you click on your room door and do not give you the usual options.*

#### Utilizing Your Room

Your room will usually be your initial location at the start and end of each day. A typical day will begin with your character waking up on his own or by an alarm event (see below). *Note: These "wake-up" processes may involve scenes but happen before the day and do not take up time.* Unless a Main Character or Side Character event is scheduled to automatically start in your room that morning, you will have the usual choices here to leave the room, access the computer, or advance the time period. *Note: Advancing the time period is not reversible using the back button so use this carefully!*

Visiting Your Room during the Noon or Evening Periods allows similar access and you can return to your room at any time. Only a few events are automatically initiated in your Room in the Noon and Evening time period.

Once you reach the final, restricted time period of each day -- night -- you will automatically return to your room (with a couple of story-based exceptions.) Once you arrive, you remain awake to make your final decisions of the day. Note: there are a few events that begin automatically in your room at the end of the day, too.

At Night you will find a fourth option menu has become available, accessed by clicking on the bed. The bed menu includes three options specific to this time period:

1. Go to Sleep - This is self-explanatory and more than likely what you should be doing now.
2. Sleep with Someone - This allows you to invite a Main Character who has the "In-Love" Trait to go to sleep beside you in your bed. This increases their Affection by 1.
3. Set an Alarm - This informs characters whose Relationship Level is high enough to wake you each day with sexual activity. This will repeat each morning until changed. *Note: Alarm wake ups are scenes do not take up time but do increase relevant statistics. Alarm setting this is only available for certain characters. Some will remain unavailable for this option regardless of their Relationship Level.*

In addition to the bed menu being available, the menu for your Room Door changes, too. This menu now prohibits access to the usual location but instead, allows you to "Sneak Around" option. This allows you to visit Main Characters in their room late at night.

Characters who will appear in the subsequent menu are those with a high enough Relationship Level (and are not otherwise occupied). Once in their room, you are able to talk to them, interact with a head pat, kiss, embrace (hug) if their Affection is high enough. You can also engage in sexual activity with them. The options for sexual activity is limited to those you have unlocked by attaining high enough Relationship Levels. *Note: when offered a new sexual activity during story events with a Main Character, choosing not to participate may block access to that type of activity from that point forward!*

After sexual activity your character will automatically be returned to their room and fall asleep without the option of additional actions.

#### Events in Your Room

Like The Lobby, your room is another common location for events to begin. Events will take place once you have reached certain relationship levels with the various Main Characters and Side Characters and is usually connected to their story line.

Events which start in your room follow three possible timeframes:

1. Take up no time and simply let you know there is something to investigate when you are ready.
2. Will take up one time period
3. (Rarely) will take up multiple time periods.

There is generally no way to avoid automatic events other than delaying the progression in your Relationship Level with the appropriate Character. So there is no hiding out in your room, you troglodyte!

#### Your (Character's) Computer

Apart from sleeping, in-room events, and initiating late-night activity, your room is also important because it contains your computer. To access it simply click on the computer at any time, even Night.

The computer is a vital element of the game and includes seven options or programs:

1. Shopping Bag Icon - This is the online marketplace and where you purchase outfits, sex toys, special items, elves (once unlocked in the story) and gifts. See below for more details.
2. Globe Icon - Displays a hoverable map of the continent of Syl'anar with descriptions of the various places you may someday visit during story lines for Main Characters.
3. Note Pad Icon - Here is where you can enter cheat codes and take all the fun out of the game, unless you're Runey In which case you're probably using this to test out some new bodaciousness.
4. Book Icon - This takes you to the Wiki (Fandom) page for Harem Hotel. Maybe you used this yourself more than an hour ago when you began reading this especially long entry!
5. Patreon Icon - Here is where you should take the money you spend on things that make you fat (like your mocha lattes or the Baconator you're still wearing) and redirect a small portion to independent story developers who deserve your support! Seriously, share when you can: it inspires and rewards. Plus, Emma is a lot more memorable than a Baconator.
6. Web Camera Icon - Allows you to see live footage of the Showers or any Main Character's room where they are generally doing something mundane, or just sitting there... like Ashley... staring ...endlessly ...at nothing.
7. Photograph Icon - Lets you review photos obtained or taken of Main Characters, Side Characters, or Minor Characters. Note: currently the game even lets you see photos you sell ...because why wouldn't you keep a copy?) There is also a red "X" button in the upper right which lets you exit the computer interface.

#### Purchases

While the Globe, Note Pad, and Book are game options and the Web Camera and Photograph are purely entertainment, the Shopping Bag is the most important and most used element. Within the market you can purchase five item types, each with its own purpose. Some are available from the start while others will enter play later in the story. Here are some basics:

Outfits - Outfits can be purchased at any time you choose -- in advance or when needed. These serve one of four functions:

* The single bondage outfit allows that character to visit the Dungeon (if of an appropriate Relationship Level). Bondage outfits are given automatically to the character in the Dungeon when they arrive.
* Meanwhile, Photography Outfits must be handed to the character by knocking on their room door. This does not expend a time slot. Photography outfits are used to allow you take a series of erotic pictures of the character which you can sell for $10-50 per session, or keep. Once you purchase and provide that outfit to the character it will be available as an option when you visit them in their room during non-story line events and select "Take Pictures"
* Some outfits -- such as the Slut outfit -- along with some of the Photography Outfits can be given and then requested during sexual activities with the character. Note: some of these outfits will only be accepted when the character's statistics are high enough to avoid offending them by the implication!
* Finally, a few outfits are used solely to advance Main Character story lines.

Like outfits, sex toys and other items, are used to advance the story line of Main Characters. Like outfits, these can be purchased in advance or at the time they are needed. These items are generally given during story line events and not in the character's room in the manner of outfits. They may be used once or later. Finally Gifts are only purchased when a character's affection has been reduced to zero or their story line requires it. Purchasing them is otherwise not allowed as they otherwise have no effect.

All item purchases are delivered to the mailbox the following day. Orders placed in the Night time period will be delivered the day after tomorrow (C'mon Amazon!) All packages will be automatically retrieved by visiting the Mailbox through the Front Door menu. This may make the direct access button in your room helpful if you anticipate an event will be triggered by entry into the Lobby.

Elves only appear for purchase at certain points in the story and only certain elves are available for purchase. Specifically, these are: Jin, Nia, Ann, Sylvia, and Peni. In order to purchase any elf beside Jin, you must have constructed the Sanctuary before they will appear for purchase as well. When purchased, simply go to the mailbox the following morning (or morning following). Instead of the usual message, the screen will darken and an event will start detailing the pickup of the elf.

The event continues with the elf's arrival at the hotel. Note: that picking up an elf does expend a time period and that although you can pickup as many items as you wish, you can only pickup one elf per time period, requiring you to visit the mailbox multiple times if purchasing multiple elves. Elves are also picked up before items in case you have items waiting as well!

#### Unexpected Visitations

In addition to events, Main Characters with sufficiently high statistics will occasionally confront you in your room out of sexual desire. This is generally due to a high Lust statistic, but can happen even when that is zero. When that occurs you can commence sexual activity, which uses up a time period, or you can choose to "Edge" the character and make them wait. You can also commence sexual activity and and then "edge" them at the last minute. Unlike The Dungeon, there are currently no penalties for rebuffing characters, however Edging a character does raise their Lust level.

Without going into spoilers, when the character's Lust level reaches the maximum, their next visit will advance from requesting sexual activity to employing "other means" to get what they want. This will also use up a time period and reduce their Lust to 0, while increasing their Lustful counter by 1.
