Do you enjoy video games as an escapism? A place where you can step outside the mundane norms and rules of the real world and step into a fantasy world?If that’s you, you might want to look into tenant.
Recently released on PC, tenant is a management game you play as a landlord, and it’s important to always work on your building and take care of your tenants’ needs. Build improvements, fix things, buy new furniture, and generally make sure everything is in order and everyone is OK.
As anyone who has ever rented a place to live knows, most places these days *check civilization*. skyrim It’s more realistic than this. A “Rental Crisis” Has Occurred in the U.S.because of everything from soaring income inequality to property speculation to AirBnB madness, but here in Australia, uh, “Rental crisis” due to widening income disparity and real estate speculation.
So the realistic game about being a landlord is Will involve you becoming the most disgusting shit on earthsomeone willing to charge more than half a month’s salary for a mushroom-infested cockroach-infested apartment with damp walls and bathroom floors.
Thankfully, in a less realistic tone, tenant is pretty fun!sitting somewhere between building management games two point series) and simsNot only do you have to spend a lot of time arranging furniture, making repairs, and arranging things (both residential and commercial), but neighbors, police, loud music, drugs , neighborhood thugs, and even the actual tenants must be dealt with. .

There are two game modes to play in. One is just a sandbox, the other is a more campaign-style experience, but like most of these games, you’ll always spend more time in the former, and you’ll find that I spend hours wrestling with where to put the sofa and the color of the tiles in the bathroom.
My favorite thing about this game is its item placement system. It’s fun to use (items squish, pop and slide are great) and it has two content filters at launch, one to remove drag from the game is. Remove other bugs. not a software bug actual bug.
what i hate that is The fact that you’re doing fun and hilarious work all the time you’re playing this game, two things that real landlords never deserve to be associated with, and that your renovations and building work are as cool as they can be, the game’s tone sometimes still a little…off.
tenant is now on Steam.
