About No Vacancy Tonight
No Vacancy Tonight is a point-and-click 3D adventure game from Momiji Games, released in 2025. Set in an eerie, half-derelict motel, it drops you into a mystery after waking up locked in a room. The game blends environmental storytelling with logic puzzles as you piece together what led to the motel’s abandonment. You’ll explore decaying rooms, interact with objects, and follow cryptic phone calls that hint at a larger story. It’s a self-contained experience with a focus on atmosphere over action. If you’ve played games like The Vanishing of Ethan Carter but prefer tighter, puzzle-driven narratives, this might hit the right notes.
Gameplay
The core loop is simple: explore, interact, solve. You move with a mouse-driven camera, clicking on objects to examine or manipulate them. Puzzles range from reassembling broken items to decoding cryptic notes left in rooms. The motel’s layout is nonlinear, so backtracking is common once new areas unlock. A phone rings at key moments, pulling you deeper into the story. Controls feel sluggish at times, especially in tight spaces, but the 3D environments are detailed enough to make discoveries satisfying. Sessions often last 30-60 minutes, with the final act leaning into tense, story-revealing set pieces. No inventory management or combat, just pure puzzle-solving.
What Players Think
PlayPile’s data shows 72% of players finish the game, with an average playtime of 5.5 hours. Community reviews rate it 4.2/5, praising the “creepy vibe” but criticizing pacing in the first act. Over 60% of players tag it as “challenging but fair,” while 18% call it “too slow.” Achievements include 30% completion for solving the first major puzzle, and 12% unlock the “True Ending” via a hidden phone number. Critic scores hover around 84/100, with outlets like PC Gamer calling it “a masterclass in minimalist horror.” Most players spend 2-4 hours stuck on one puzzle, though the 25% completion drop-off suggests some find the difficulty curve steep.
PlayPile's Take
No Vacancy Tonight is a solid pick for fans of slow-burn mysteries and environmental puzzles. At $25, it’s a mid-tier indie that offers replay value through its 40+ achievements. While the story isn’t impressive, the tense atmosphere and clever puzzles justify the price for most. Skip it if you prefer fast-paced action or dislike backtracking. The game’s flaws, sluggish movement, uneven pacing, are minor for a genre that thrives on mood. If you’ve got 6 hours to spare and enjoy figuring out secrets piece by piece, it’s worth the stay.
