Travelling alone, and then what

Someone staying for work usually eats on their own. Afterwards there is a bar, but they sit there ten minutes and then disappear upstairs with a laptop.

That is an evening lost, for them and for the bar. The obstacle is not the price of a second drink; it is that there is nothing to do.

We give that guest something to hold. A code on the table opens short games, and during a tournament they play along with the rest of the hotel without having to talk to anyone.

• Works in the lounge as readily as in the restaurant.
• Solo travellers can join without approaching a stranger.
• Several languages, which in a hotel is rarely surplus.
• Nothing extra to keep behind the bar.

In practice

1. Every low table and the bar itself carry a card.
2. The guest scans it and plays on the device already in their pocket.
3. If a tournament is running, the standings appear on a screen in the bar.
