About the Game

El Chismoso is a simulation and management game with a strong narrative focus and irreverent humor, where you take full control of a hotel filled with eccentric characters and unexpected situations.

As the hotel manager, your main goal is to grow and sustain the business, managing rooms, resources, and guest satisfaction. However, the true soul of the game lies behind closed doors—secret conversations, rumors, conflicts, and gossip unfolding between guests.

Throughout the game, you will listen to, uncover, and unlock unique stories that directly or indirectly impact how the hotel operates. Each guest has their own personality, secrets, and behaviors, creating unpredictable scenarios and meaningful decisions that can influence your progression.

El Chismoso embraces dark, sarcastic, and provocative humor, delivering a lighthearted yet addictive experience for players who enjoy management games with a narrative twist.

Key Features:

  • Full hotel management with steady progression

  • Character-driven systems with unique stories and dialogues

  • Gossip and listening mechanics that reveal hidden events

  • Player decisions that affect gameplay and outcomes

  • Adult-oriented, irreverent humor

  • Relaxed gameplay suitable for both short and long sessions

In El Chismoso, you don’t just manage a hotel—you manage secrets. Dive into a world where business and gossip go hand in hand, and discover how far you can go by listening to what no one else should hear.
