A museum is nothing but a collection of stuff without people coming by and paying money to come appreciate it, and as you curate unique locations inTwo Point Museum, you’ll come across plenty of different kinds of visitors, each of whom would like something different out of their day at your museum.
Getting to know the patrons of your museums is essential for catering the space to their liking, since happy visitors are far more likely to donate on their visit or grab something from the gift shop than those who leave unsatisfied. Be sure there’s something for everyone!
Every Visitor Wants Something Different
While it’s a silly game to be certain, Two Point Museum forces you to take some very lifelike inspiration into each museum to help run it successfully, and anyone catering to a demographic knows thatdifferent types of visitors value different thingsfrom their time at your establishment. You can’t paint with broad strokes and please everyone, in real life or in Two Point Museum!
Visitors evaluate your museums based on three metrics: how muchKnowledgethey’ve gained from their time there, theBuzzaround your exhibits, and their overallHappinesswith the visit. And while everyone wants some mix of these three things from your museum,every type of visitor values one or two of these traitsmore than anything else when considering their donation amounts and review scores.
The most in-depth display of Knowledge from Info Stands won’t mean anything to your Child visitors if they’re not reading them, while the Professors who visit may be too keenly focused on their Knowledge evaluation of the museum to care too much about the Buzz around your exhibits. You’ll need to try anensure there’s something for everyoneat your museums, since the more visitor types you can satisfy, the more money they’re likely to donate back to your museum.
In this vein, patrons all have aDream Visit, a longer-term goal that will require some specific work past just keeping them happy and having a good time on their visit. These visits are based on the visitor type and will vary from person to person, so be sure to check which patrons you’re close to giving the ultimate visit to!
