So what's in the update you ask?
[p][/p]New York Map
[p]Set in the heart of one of the world’s most iconic cities, the New York map offers a fresh canvas for hotel design. You begin with an empty plot and 3 financing choices in the scenario, allowing complete creative freedom to build from the ground up.The map allows you to build 25 floors, which is a mega upgrade compared to the previous maximum of 5 and you have 700+ more tiles to play with than the largest map, Santorini!

Art Deco Furniture Set
[p]Alongside the new map, the update introduces a range of art deco themed cosmetic items and rewards, including guestroom items with 10 colour variations, new stairs cases, a gramophone and more! Whether you're designing sky lounges, high-rise suites, or bustling lobbies, the new items make it a breeze bringing luxury and a bit of the roaring 20's to your hotels! [/p][p][/p]New Character Outfits
[p]With the art deco themed items coming to the game, we thought it was only right to add some 1920's themed outfits in for your characters to wear as well. Pin-striped suits and flapper outfits are here for you to dress up your guests or staff in![/p][p][/p]Copy/Paste Room Feature
[p]Surprise! One of the most requested features is finally here. The Copy/Paste Room tool allows you to duplicate entire room layouts with a few clicks. This streamlines the building process, especially for large hotels with repeating room types or symmetrical designs. It’s a major time-saver and a powerful tool for maintaining consistency across your hotels! [/p][p][/p]Other Update-worthy notes (warning spoilers ahead!):
