Job Type 1: Hotel Hapless

Hotel Hapless is Dumb Ways to Build's opening construction job and the most completed challenge in the game. It teaches the core loop the store page describes: grab, rotate and throw anything not bolted down to use as makeshift building materials, then fire your trusty nail gun to staple together sketchy bridges, ramps and structures.

Hotel Hapless holds six of the game's 26 trophies: Checking In (complete the job), Express Check Out (Time Trial), Have a Safe Trip (zero total deaths), Dead and Breakfast (Master Builder Mode) and two hidden objectives — Numpty Dumpty (deliver the egg to its nest) and O, There It Is! (replace the missing letter).

Get comfortable with two verbs: grabbing physics objects and firing the Nail Gun. Structures only hold where they are nailed — un-nailed pieces slide, tumble and take your crew with them.
