A first-person adventure game with puzzles, developed by small team at Spanish Team Gotham studio. The Guest takes place in the 80s inside an obscure hotel. The main hero is a Soviet scientist with a mysterious past, who struggles with mental issues due to his medicine addiction.
The Guest is a PC-based FPP adventure. It was developed by the Spanish Team Gotham studio, known for its Cooking Time mobile puzzle game.
The action of the game was set in the 80s of the last century. The main character is Dr. Evgueni Leonov - a Soviet scientist with a full of secrets of the past and considerable mental problems, at least some of which are caused by a strong addiction to various drugs. During the campaign, the state of his mind will gradually deteriorate, which will affect his perception of reality.
The story begins when Leonov decides to spend the night in a neglected hotel. After waking up in the middle of the night, the protagonist discovers with horror that someone has removed the handles from his room. The first task is to get out of this room, but after its completion it quickly turns out that the interior of the building is completely abandoned, and for this at every step there are numerous obstacles waiting to stop the scientist inside.
During the campaign we must not only find a way to escape from the hotel, but also get to know its history and discover how it is related to the hero's past.
In terms of gameplay mechanisms The Guest is a development of ideas from the escape the room, which is popular among free browser productions. The campaign therefore consists of a series of larger and smaller enclosed spaces. After hitting each of them, the player has to find a way to get further, which requires careful interior exploration, collection of objects and solving puzzles. The level of difficulty of the puzzles is high and the game can reliably test the cleverness and perceptiveness of the player. The Guest lacks any agility challenges.

Game Ratings for The Guest Video Game.
We Got This Covered: 3 / 5 by Joshua Kowbel
The Guest tests an array of mental abilities throughout the three hours it lasts. But when buying into “a first-person exploration game,” you don’t expect this many plot holes.
ActionTrip: 7.3 / 10 by Keri Honea
The Guest does drive that mansion-horror vibe quite well, but by the end, you can’t help but feel like you missed something crucial, like Leonov’s past perhaps. I’m really looking for any reason why he’d suddenly seem totes okay with being kidnapped, when the rest of the game makes it seem like he’d definitely not.
Cubed3: 5 / 10 by Ofisil
Unless willing to experience a, somewhat flawed, cult piece of adventure game history that oozes with spookiness, The 7th Guest is not really a big recommendation, especially after so many years, as it's basically a series of puzzle mini-games; mini-games that lack a "connection" to the game world, and which are of mixed quality.
