Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0.29/day in the week to Aug 20 → 1/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

This game should be so much better with all the advancements and updates that other "Market Simulators" have had for ages by now. It feels like the devs just added a content/product type to an old version of Super-M Sim, and just never bothered to modernize on the concept. If this was Early Access, I could forgive it, but in the current state this game is, where others paved the way for MUCH better concepts and gameplay, this one falls so exceedingly short and feels like a very lazy cash grab based on the "Market Sim" genre.
love the game since i play plenty of simulation games and cannot wait to see whats next reminds me of being younger going to rent a movie

J’aime beaucoup ce jeu ! Son ambiance rétro est vraiment réussie et c’est un vrai plaisir de retrouver les anciennes consoles, les jeux et toute cette atmosphère des boutiques d’époque. On sent qu’il a été fait avec beaucoup d’amour pour le jeu vidéo rétro. Une expérience simple, agréable et particulièrement nostalgique pour les amateurs de jeux old-school.
Super fun!!
So this game does have some potential. I do like the retro game ideas and using similar game consoles as to what we experienced irl. Buuuutttt...... I would wanna see some changes. Most notably, I want the progress of the game to move a little faster. Seems to drag on and on with little to no results. I want to be able to look straight down to pick up trash and sweep floors, right now you have to stand a little away from it and look at a specific spot to pick up trash. One thing I straight up didn't like though, when I was restocking during the day, I got a complaint that the customer could see boxes (Like duh, I'm carrying one to restock shelves). I definitely want this game to succeed as it's a game I've been looking forward to, but there is some work to do so keep up the good work and I look forward to seeing where this goes!
Le jeu est formidable, beaux graphisme, gameplay agreable. Il y a toutes les consoles de mon enfance, et surtout la Philips Videopac, en 1978 elle a était ma premiere console.Que de souvenirs, je conseille ce jeu a tout le monde.
This game is still in early access and new things are being added all the time. For everyone who loved gaming in the early era, this is a nostalgic kind of store simulator with charm. The games all have a gamedex entry with information where you can see all sides of the boxart and the attention to detail is *chefskiss*. It also have some interesting "boosts" you can choose when levling up that last a certain amount of days that will give you a little reward forn your effort. On the negative side, the pacing off the game perhaps needs some tuning, but as I started with, the game is in Early Access and things are developed as I am typing this :)
Bon jeu qui a beaucoup de potentiel ! Certes il demande encore quelques améliorations mais les développeurs ont l'air très réactifs. Les graphismes des jeux et consoles sont très beaux et le système de gestion dynamique des prix est intéressant. C'EST UN JEU A SUIVRE !
IV spend already some hours in the game and I'll love it its a nice nostalgic gem the good old days , Great work Devs :-D
le jeu à beaucoup de possibilités à voir si les développeurs vont en faire quelque chose... honnêtement c'est le meilleur jeu sur ce thème a l'heure actuel vous serez vendeur dans une boutique de jeux vidéo de la génération odyssey à la playstation 1 (à la sortie du jeu ) console disponible à la 1.0 odyssey atari2600 NES Master system Snes Mega Drive N64 Ps1 les + : -jolie, le jeu est soigné sur les console ,les jeux, les périphériques (jeux ,boites etc) -il a la particularité d'avoir des prix qui fluctuent en fonction des ventes donc rien n'est fixe -vraiment grosse possibilité de devenir un jeu super par la suite si le suivi est la les - - les HAHA! des clients tous les deux secondes -la boutique qui se salie trop vite, et les gens en font tout une histoire. Une trace de pas , un gobelet par terre -2points sur la note de votre boutique ,trop contraignant a l'heure actuel, je ne comprends pas cette fonctionnalité .Il faut aussi nettoyer les meubles avec un marteau la aussi encore pas compris le principe... -on ne peut pas embaucher de caissier à l'heure actuel (mais on peut choisir de valider directement la vente sans avoir a rendre la monnaie )
