Thrifty Business

Very fun shop management game, especially recommended if you loved unpacking!

Here for a good time, not a long time. (14 hour playtime 100% achievements.) Thrifty business is a lovely shop sim with a cute array of characters you can interact with over the course of the game. Decorate and set up your shop strategically to get the most profit out of your day. Schedule events for your community and watch as your shop grows from humble beginnings to a large bustling store. The art style is charming and vibrant just like the stories it tells. Truly one of the best shop sims on the market.

I really loved this game, a lot. Sorting, but at your discretion. A story to follow, but nothing overwhelming. I would love DLC or other content. Honestly might even play again and reformat my whole store.

Very low-key, cozy, and relaxing management game. There is no real "fail state" or way to play the game "wrong". Basically anything you do will work out. Lots of customisation options. It's kind of like "unpacking" the game, but for a shop. You can choose to organise your shop by category etc but I found that I was constantly low on space and money, so I kind of just put everything randomly and it was fine. After a while though the lack of challenge made me feel a bit bored, so I stopped playing. But I'll still recommend it for people looking for a relaxing game like this.

I spent an hour rearranging my store. 10/10

SO FUN AND CUTE
