Going Up
By Kevin Norman
There can’t be more than four Cy-Bs in the elevator. When the elevator stops on a floor, Cy-Bs that want to go on that floor get out. The awaiting Cy-Bs can come in. You get the points for delivered Cy-Bs. If Cy-B has been waiting a long while, the Cy-B will leave and you’ll be fined. If you see that there are too many awaiting Cy-Bs, you can start preventive repair until all of them go out, but in this case you’ll be fined, too.
You have 100 points at the beginning. The more points you score, the higher skill level you achieve. You’ll be promoted to the next prestigious hotel if you achieve certain skill level. Each next hotel has more floors.
If you lose your skill level, you’ll be downgraded and start working in the low-level hotel.
The game ends if your score is zero or if you exit. The goal of the game is to achieve the best score during the game.
