Retro Arcade Shop Simulator

Great simulator! It is a little basic in its current state - it's a bit rigid and some of the ordering/moving of items can be tedious. But there is a LOT of things in the game so far. A lot of different variety of game cabinets, tables, etc. Shelves to stock with magazine, etc. And a whole cafeteria area to serve food too. It is like a combination of a lot of other simulators in one. I think it is a great start, and I would like to see more fixes and additions. ESPECAILLY TWITCH INTEGRATION! Seriously, in 2026, having a simulator without Twitch Integration is crazy as Twitch can/will be a huge source of exposure for the game! I want to be able to let my twitch chat show up randomly as customers like so many other sims out there!

This game has been fantastic to play, the graphics, the vibe, the mood, it's not as overly hectic as other sim games where you constantly have to panic and run around or else the customer throws a big stink fit. I love the music selection on the jukeboxes, the collection of arcade cabinets, and other things, the vending machines and token dispensers are pretty neat too, the only minor gripe I have with the game and this could just be me being overly picky. The game is called "Retro arcade shop simulator" So you would think it's oldschool arcades etc, there comes a point where you can set up consoles and pc's... but what console is graphically plopped there? a ps5.. now is it me or is that kind of funny when it's supposed to be retro? Also I don't remember going to arcades growing up and seeing big alienware desktop setups XD like i said minor nitpick, when I think retro I would think like a windows 95/98 machine or for a console a snes and or a Genesis, though everything else is perfect! I've played Sim games from Gas station sim, Tobacco shop, etc etc too many I can't remember and this so far is the best one i've played... if I could make a suggestion, and this is coming from growing up around tons of arcades , one thing missing is a prize center, or macines that dispense tickets etc, I remember going to arcades and racking up tickets to get all those crazy things they'd have there and I am talking pre dave and busters era like Nathans, or Funstation USA .. Ok time to get back to the game, just about to expand the 2nd to last expansion! Cheers everyone hope this review helps you , 10/10 would recommend, the devs hit it out of the park with this one!

Fun but short. The level up system stops around lvl 16 which you'll achieve after your third hour. Also, it is way too easy to make money. Despite all that, a lot of detail has gone into how the games. Good for the asking price. Hope there's more

Its a great game no major problems but as i walk in the building it gets a bit slugish i turnd the textre res down that seamed to work for outside i havent tried the main res yet but if its my grapics card ill replace that soon

I have really been enjoying the game. it is pretty fun and relaxing to play. it is pretty easy to get levels and unlock every thing. the only thing I do not like about the game is the selling of Magazines and games in the arcade i fell like that is unneeded and way to tedious. it should focus on the Arcade portion of the game. the vending machines and cafeteria are fine I would also like to see a prize and ticket booth that would be pretty cool

Es uno de los simuladores mas amigables, a diferencia de otros no tienes que estar cambiando precios a cada rato, ganas mucho dinero asi que avanzas rapido, puedo contratar empleados sin tener miedo por perder dinero, yo lo que hago es contratar para lo que no tengo ganas de hacer y si me llega a dar ganas solo lo despido y yo hago la tarea, lo que digo es muy amigable. Lo unico malo es que usa IA generativa para mucho arte del juego, las maquinas tienen dibujos de IA, personalmente no me gusta pero no me molesta, todo lo bueno del juego lo compensa, hay unos carteles que puedes comprar y colocar en las paredes, ignoro si son de IA porque no se ven mal, ya depende de cada quien, solo la usaron en estos momentos asi que bajo mi brujula lo dejo pasar. Algo que si esta muy bonito es la musica, puedes poner rocolas y las rolitas estan muy movidas, un poco retrowave, otras mas relax, estan buenas, algunas si suenan muy a OST de juego. Hay una demo, si quieres salir de las dudas simplemente pruebala, yo recomiendo el juego a quienes gustan de los simuladores del estilo.

This game is still in early development, so take this with a grain of salt. This game was a great way for me to kill a Sunday when I needed a bit of a break. That being said, that was about all the playability the game had (at least in its current state). If you are a 90s kid and played any of the tycoon games or sims, then you will enjoy this. However once you get your arcade maxed out, and all your staff, there isn't much for you to do other than restock the shelves and wander around. If you could play the games in the arcade, that would be pretty cool - games inside of a game. Otherwise, I don't know what this game needs to make it last longer.
