Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
Every market we collect.
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): 18.71/day in the week to Aug 7 → 26.43/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 24 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,404 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.

Waldo (from Where's Waldo) was my best customer. But then he broke my special edition copy of Xenocat and when I charged him to replace it, he threw Popcorn at me. 10/10
Deeply addictive, nostalgia-fueled management sim that captures the magic of old video rental stores. Shout out and RIP to Movies America, my OG store as a kid.

Fun and addicting!
I don't think I've ever played a more relaxing game in my life. It's fun, if your a VHS guy, and grew up with video stores, this game is for you.
Yes.
Retro Rewind is a fantastic no-stress simulator taking you back to the 90s, it captures the feeling and keeps you going with the weekly new releases that are always references to classic FANTASTIC films so you can really feel like you're in the time period. I wouldn't consider the game finished but there's definitely enough here to shove 10-25 hours into in a casual run easily. As of writing this review there's a repair bench so you're never losing money on broken tapes anymore and a new VCR renting section that HAS to be manned by you, not staff. I definitely recommend picking this up and playing it, it even has a DEMO! So try it out! I enjoyed it so much I livestreamed my complete playthrough of this game. Now for a few "negatives" (honestly they're more nitpicks but QOL update can easily fix) I will say I'm not too impressed with progression as it currently stands, having to wait until near the end of the game to get a second staff member is a bit silly because even with 2 staff members YOU still have a lot to do and have a lot of customers to deal with, plus having to babysit the two laziest staff is a lot to do lol. Even with a Fast Staff member on Returns they will STILL be dealing with them LONG after closing time, which I find massively unacceptable. Also please let them carry more than 4? Like come on I can carry 10 with my bare hands!
Jogo extremamente divertido com uma vibe bem nostalgica para pessoas 30+. Mecanicas simples e pouco punitivas, tornam a experiencia agradavel. Não é a melhor opção do estilo "jogo de mercadinho", pois não é possivel editar preço dos alugueis, variação de produtos, configuração de multas (elas existem, mas voce não pode alterar o valor e muito menos editar o valor). Senti falta de gameplays que atrapalham o jogador, o maximo de "ruim" que pode acontecer, é alguém pedir uma fita (geralmente lançamento) e voce não ter mais. Dito isso, voce vai perder muitas horas aqui e vai GOSTAR disso. Recomendo jogar com um mod de filmes reais.
Molto immersivo e personalizzabile, la quantità di film e attività, come la gestione leggera del negozio e i vari gadget e attrezzature lo rendono leggero, rilassante e anche a tratti stressante, ma non troppo, il focus è più sulla personalizzazione, non su guadagni da foglio excel, e si entra subito nel vivo senza troppi tutorial enormi, poi col tempo si sbloccano cose e dipendenti per servire un pò tutti bello il catalogo film, con edizioni limitate, nuove uscite da mettere in esposizione, eventi speciali nel calendario, ratings, possibilità di acquistare copie "pirata" inserendo codici di un dato film e il rivenditore dietro il negozio che offre titoli particolari con titoli assurdi DIrei che alla fine è una droga, dal demo già capite tutto, è in inglese ma poco cambia nel gioco principale, poi può risultare chill o stressante, alla fine è un job simulator ma non manageriale pesante e questo mi garba molto, per fare un confronto dave the diver seppur bellissimo l'aspetto della gestione totale di centomila meccaniche del ristorante era eccessivo per me, qui è l'opposto ci sono soldi e xp, ma è tutto più casual e anche disordinato. E va bene così, per me. 9/10 perchè un giorno nel negozio se stai alla cassa è abbastanza ripetitivo, o stressante, e il cartello apri o chiudi negozio è manuale, alla fine ti fa guadagnare di più ma non ha senso se poi ci sono orari però bello ho già 10 ore, l'ho preso ieri e sto ancora a metà progressione, sbloccato solo un'area nuova del negozio
нельзя пиздить недовольных покупателей
Phenomenal game that truly encapsulates the video store experience. The vibes are immaculate and the sim elements are quite satisfying to play.
