Hi everyone, and welcome to my new adventure on Gym Manager ! 🎮💪 Today, I'm taking you on a tour of the management of an ultra-chic gym, located in the charming town of Flobug. And yes, I know, I should have gone to the gym myself instead of having fun managing one, but hey... you can't do it again! 😂
The adventure begins: My ultra chic gym
You'll soon realise that this isn't the first time I've ventured into this area. Gym Manager. Unfortunately, the first game session decided not to record properly. But it doesn't matter! The mechanics are the same, and I'll show you how I built my Flobug sports empire.
Right from the start, we're already faced with a small problem: non-member visitors taking advantage of my coach without paying! 😤 Don't panic, the game has provided me with a highly sophisticated tool for dealing with this kind of problem... the punch. OK, it's a bit violent, but that's the game, eh! I promise, nobody gets hurt.
More members, more problems?
It was a huge success, and my room was packed! So many people are queuing that I've run out of room to welcome new members. I've even got a little 'exclusus' number like in the real VIP rooms. 🏋️♂️ I've had to advertise everywhere to attract so many people, and it's working like a charm.
But then, as success goes, I have to deal with a few little problems: renewing subscriptions, negotiating rates (because you can do that at the client's discretion, of course 😏 ), and above all, finding space for all these people!
Black market and stolen carpets
It seems that my gym is so popular that some equipment is mysteriously disappearing... stolen, yes! But I've found the solution: head to the black market to buy back what's been stolen at a low price. OK, that's a bit of a stretch morally, but in Gym Managerwe're doing everything we can to keep our business afloat!
Between that and reorganising the machines, it's quite a management job. The carpet area, for example, is my little jewel: a well-thought-out space so that customers have the impression of a superbly equipped room, even if it's mainly to optimise space.
Administrative hassles and short nights
After a busy day, it's time to close up shop. Bills, wages... it's all expensive, and we're going to have to make some savings. But there's always a way to manage, even if my coach has decided to leave because he hasn't been paid. Oops... 😅
The day in review
Honestly, Gym Manager has its fun moments, even if the game mechanics do get a little repetitive. But then, that's the charm of management gamesright? I'm not sure I'll be doing a long series of Let's Plays on this game just yet, but I really enjoyed this little launch day.
Don't hesitate to try out the game for yourself, especially as it's on special offer for €8. And if you want to have fun with a game that's a little offbeat, now's the time. See you very soon for new sporting adventures, and in the meantime, don't forget to do a bit of sport, eh! 😜
