Welcome to ZD31B Hotel! It runs in your browser on a computer, tablet or phone - nothing to install.

1. Create your avatar on the Register page (it takes a minute).
2. Press Enter the hotel. The game opens in its own browser tab, so this website stays open next to it.
3. You arrive in the Mega Mall. The hotel runs a balanced, fair economy with inflation controls: coins take time to earn, so what you earn really counts. Say hi!

• Walk: click or tap a floor tile.
• Chat: type in the box at the bottom and press Enter. Click another player to see their profile, add them as a friend or send a message.
• Toolbar (bottom left): your avatar opens the Me menu (your profile, achievements, rooms, clothes and settings). The hotel icon takes you back to the Home screen, then come the Navigator (find rooms), the Shop and your Inventory.
• Friends are at the bottom right. Friend lists are unlimited for everyone.

• Coins buy furni, rares and ZD31B Club. Everyday furni costs only a few coins.
• Duckets buy rare clothes and some special items.
• Diamonds are the premium currency for the biggest rares.

How to earn them (all free):

• Every hour you play: 50 coins, 30 duckets and 1 diamonds. You need to be in a room and active (not on the Home screen or away).
• Daily reward: claim it on My profile or the homepage: 25 coins and up, growing with your streak, plus 1 diamonds (+3 on every 7th day in a row).
• Vote: vote for the hotel on FindRetros once a day from the homepage for +25 coins and +2 diamonds.
• ZD31B Club members get 1.5x hourly rewards, a Payday and a gift box every month. What the club gives you

• Find rooms: open the Navigator. Public lists the hotel's own rooms (Grand Lobby, Stone Chapel Gardens, Alpine Lodge, Sunset Cafe, Sunny Lido, Mega Mall and Club Nova, plus the Grand Theatre and Games Arena for events); All Rooms shows rooms built by players.
• Your own room: Navigator, then My World, then create a room. Pick a layout and a name.
• Decorate: buy furni in the Shop, open your Inventory and drag items into your room. Click a piece to move, rotate or pick it up.
• The bots in the public rooms welcome you and answer when you greet or thank them by name (try "hi Aurora" in the Grand Lobby).

• New here? Take the one-minute tour in the hotel (it starts by itself, or press Take the tour on the Home screen) and get 50 coins plus the First Day badge.
• Daily quests on the star button in the hotel and on My profile: a new mix every day that grows with you, from Newcomer to Legend, with bigger goals, more pay and an all-done bonus.
• Invite friends with your link on My profile: when they have played 5 hours you both get 100 coins.
• Events are announced on the news and with hotel alerts. Battle Banzai rounds run in the Games Arena, shows in the Grand Theatre. The Grand Lobby dresses up for every big holiday.
• Host your own event: in the hotel open the Shop, Furni > Room Event, pick one of your rooms and give it a name and a description. For 50 duckets it is listed in the Navigator's Events tab for 2 hours, and on the Home screen and this website. Hosts whose events bring in real guests earn the Event Host, Party Starter and Legendary Host badges.
• Hype Meter: everyone can chip in coins (on the Home screen, the lobby board or the homepage). When the meter is full the whole hotel gets a Party Hour: double quest XP, double arcade tickets and half the trading fees on the Stock Exchange for an hour, a few free duckets for everyone in the hotel (a few more for those who chipped in), and everyone who chipped in gets the Hype Squad badge.
• Pixel Palace arcade: 10 coins for 10 minutes on any of ten machines, tickets for every game, prizes at the counter. Love a game? Take the machine home: Shop, Furni > Arcade Machines. A machine at home plays its game for you and your visitors, with its own high-score table (home machines give no tickets).
• ZD31B Cinema: a real movie theater with a giant screen. Random videos play around the clock and everyone in the room watches the same moment. Two minutes before a video ends, vote on which of three suggestions plays next; if nobody votes, the hotel picks. It starts silent, so press Sound on at the top of the screen, or Big screen to fill your window. On iPhone and iPad, Big screen is the way to get sound. Walk in from the Navigator or through the Cinema door upstairs in the Mega Mall.
• What's new: a short note pops up when something changes for you, and everything is listed on What's new.
• Treasure hunt: a hidden tile is waiting somewhere in the public rooms. The hint is on the Home screen and the lobby board. Be the first to stand on it and you win coins and the Treasure Hunter badge.
• Monthly specials: every month the Shop gets its own three rares, and they never come back the same way. Holidays add a seasonal page for the same weeks as the lobby decorations.
• Surprise drops: a limited page of valuable furni, often discounted, appears in the Shop with no warning and vanishes a day or so later. Check the Shop often.
• Monthly awards: the team picks a Best Builder and a Most Helpful Player each month. Winners get a badge, coins and a thank-you on the news. Room of the week gets its own badge too.
• Trading: Mega Mall has trading tables. Read trading safely first.
• ZD31B Club chat bubbles: club members can pick from about 30 extra chat bubble styles in the chat box.

• What it is: 120 made-up hotel companies (furniture makers, arcades, banks, pet shops...) whose share prices move by themselves all day. Open it with the chart button on the toolbar in the hotel, or on the market page.
• Buy low, sell high: pick a company, choose how much to put in and press Buy. If the price goes up you can sell for more than you paid; if it goes down you get back less. Nobody can predict it, not even the team: prices are truly random, so spread your money over several companies.
• Three wallets, kept apart: you can invest coins, duckets or diamonds. Shares bought with coins are sold back for coins, and so on; the market never swaps one currency into another.
• Opening hours: every day from 6:30 AM to 9:00 PM (your time), closed on New Year's Day, July 4, Thanksgiving and Christmas. Prices keep drifting while it is closed and can jump at the opening bell.
• Like the real thing: companies report earnings every few months, pay dividends (paid into your purse automatically, a share of the profit), split their shares, get bought out or, rarely, go bust (the shares are then worth nothing). News stories explain what happened. Big crashes pause trading for a while, like a real exchange.
• Indexes: the ZD 100 follows the 100 biggest companies, the PIXDAQ Composite every PIXDAQ company, the HIA 30 thirty famous names, and VOLT shows how jumpy the market is.
• Costs and limits: a small fee of 0.5% on each trade (half during a Party Hour), 10% of any profit and of dividends goes back to the hotel, and how much you can have invested depends on what players usually own. These keep the hotel's economy healthy.
• Staff never trade: staff accounts cannot buy or sell at all, and anything a new staff member owned is sold for them automatically. Trading for a staff member through another account, a friend or family counts as staff trading.
• Fair play, enforced: every trade is logged and the Super Mods act as the market's regulators. Trading with a second account, sharing accounts, scripts, or deals with staff are investigated and can get your trading frozen or your account banned.
• Badges: First Trade, Big Win, Dividend Collector, and Investor of the Week for the best result of the week.

• Someone being mean? Click the player and choose Report in the menu above their head. Staff see it straight away.
• Need a person? Use Contact support. Staff reply by email.
• Forgot your password? Use Reset password. Change it any time on My profile.
• Banned by mistake? Appeal the ban - a senior staff member reviews it. Is the hotel down? Check the status page.
• Stay safe: never share your password or personal details. Staff will never ask for your password. Read the hotel rules and our privacy notice.
