Secret Games Company has announced their comfy self-published relaxing party simulator Bon Vivant. Become the talk of socialist circles by hosting amazing parties where you decide what’s on the menu, the decoration, and who the lucky guests will be.
Designed for fans of easy strategising where the emphasis is on designing a fun time, meeting mood goals to unlock interesting characters, and living your cosy Agatha Christie party dreams, minus the murder. Unless someone kills the mood.
The city of light has many famous characters from Picasso to Orwell, and their opinions of you will be determined by whether your party is a hit or not. Guests arrive, admire your home, and chat amongst themselves. As you watch the socialising unfold, decide what and when to serve your menu to partygoers. A run lasts 12 months, and during each run, you will typically host 4-6 parties, while the game world around you evolves, impacting food prices, new businesses to peruse, and sales on objects to spruce up your home.
Game features:
Keep your guests happy
Manage people’s moods by referring to a tracker that shows how much fun they’re having. The happier guests are, the better your score will be. Satisfied guests may even introduce you to their friends.
Shop
Plan your budget and explore the finest butchers, bakers, cocktail shakers, and cheese makers the City of Lights has to offer to buy ingredients for your specially curated menu. You can also spend money on furnishings and decoration to instill cosiness and evoke awe.
Serve up a great menu
Once you’ve got the ingredients you need for some spicy cocktails and delicious food, you can prepare everything needed to keep stomachs full and spirits high. Serving food can boost how much guests enjoy the party, and drinks can also do this, but will reset conversations.
Guests
Eligible guests come with mini biographies that tell you their financial status and traits. There will be 40 playable characters available to unlock. Impress them enough, and you may be the one getting an invitation to go on trips to earn perks and discover new strategic options.
