You have taken over a small seaside resort: 8 rooms, 2 stars and guests waiting at the gate. Lobi is a hotel management game where every decision is yours. A DAY AT THE RESORT • Morning briefing: you set the nightly rate; market, season and your star rating shape demand. • Booking offers: couples, families, retirees, business guests… each with its own rate and length of stay. Accept or decline. • Walk-ins at the gate: give them a room, gamble on a higher rate or turn them away. • Guest requests: late checkout, room service, noise complaints, extra linen. Miss them and satisfaction drops. • Operations alerts: breakdowns, empty stock, worn-out property, missing staff. Snoozing is a decision too. • Daily report card: a grade from A to F, streaks and goals. GROW • Star inspections: upkeep, review score, stock and a fault-free property. 3* unlocks Block B, 4* Block C, 5* the villas. • Facilities: bar, restaurant, spa, pool, conference hall, kids club, water sports, evening shows, laundry, solar panels, beach. • Staff: housekeepers, receptionists, waiters, entertainers, technicians, each solving a bottleneck. • Tour operator contracts, loyal guests, a guest book collection and a quest chain. HONEST RULES • The game never progresses in the background; you resume exactly where you left off. • Your save syncs across devices with iCloud. • Growth has a price: bigger hotels break down more, inspections get stricter, winter is quiet. Premium (one-time purchase): removes ads, automates supply orders and gives a permanent discount. Available in English, Turkish, German, French, Spanish and Italian.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Master Trader E at none against Lobi's 1. Master Trader E also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
