Tiny Bookshop PC

Tiny Bookshop is a 2.5D bookshop simulator developed and published by an indie German studio neoludic games. It received the Most Charming Game award and two nominations during 2022's Indie Cup event.

Plot

The game is set in a charming seaside town, where we open a small bookshop. We must manage our business, acquire books of different genres and establish contact with Bookstonbury's residents, slowly becoming part of their community.

Mechanics

Tiny Bookshop largely focuses on bookstore management. Our shop is small and mobile, selling used books. It doesn't have a fixed location, therefore it's up to us where it will be moved. We also decide how to arrange the books on the shelves and how to decorate its interior. Decorations can be found by visiting various locations.

Each resident of the city has their individual taste and preferences. To satisfy as many readers as possible and expand our circle of regular customers, we must stock our bookshop with books of different genres. Players can interact with the townspeople, make friends, help them with their problems and discover their backstories.

Technical aspects

The game's stylized visuals make use of the isometric perspective, making them seem three-dimensional. The color palette is subdued, yet appealing.
