The charm of running a quirky shop keeps players hooked well past the 25-hour mark—nearly half the sampled reviews come from this group. Its cozy vibe and addictive gameplay shine brightest, even as some call parts of the experience unfinished.
What it's about: Gérez votre supermarché dans une petite ville pleines de potins, agencez votre magasin, passez des accords commerciaux et développez l'empire de votre tante cachottière. La vente de frites surgelées vous aidera forcément à guérir cette communauté brisée... pas vrai ?

« I really enjoyed playing this game, but I can't recommend it. I was so disappointed by the ending, with many loose ends left untied. Why were the shed, or the shadow man even in the game if there was going to be no big reveal? »👎 anonymous review · 22 h played1« Franchement déçu, j'avais vraiment hâte de la sortie du jeu pour au final pas grand chose. Le jeu est vide, et termine sur un goût amer. Au risque de répéter les autres commentaires "c'est tout ?" »👎 anonymous review · 14 h played« Not worth the price. Not enough content. Game feels short not alot to do. Might as well play any other market sim over this game. »👎 anonymous review · 11 h played« I honestly expected more... It has great potential, but feels a little empty. It honestly feels a bit like an early access game. Story wise it's a shorter game, and I don't think the price point matches. »👎 anonymous review · 28 h played« Story is infuriating and most characters are absolutely insufferable, killed any excitement I had for the actual gameplay loop. »👎 anonymous review · 10 h played« Excellent jeux de gestion/aventure, très chill avec un pixelart mignon, je recommande ! »👍 anonymous review · 30 h played
