Be a shopkeep in the Wild West and follow the American Dream with the Steam Next Fest demo – Early Birds can open shop on June 2nd
Howdy stranger! Do you like wild west games, but ain’t much of a gunslinger? Well, the good folks over at SunDust, a label of the German publisher Toplitz Productions have the right thing for ya!
Take a step back in time when the West was wilder than mustangs. Saddle up and get a taste of what it’s like to own and run the granddaddy of nowadays’ supermarkets with Wild West General Store Simulator.
Check out the trailer below:
You’re not only the shopkeep, but also the decorator, when you take care of your day-to-day business tryin’ to keep your account afloat, the shelves stocked and the doors open.
Wrangle inventory and deal with travellin’ traders and fellow peddlers to keep your source of income from runnin’ dry.
Give your customers a shoppin’ experience finer than Miss Molly’s fried chicken – from when they enter your esteemed establishment to the final cling of the coin at the register.
Happy customers will be back as sure as a fly on a cow pie.
With a darn fine economy model workin’ under the surface, you’ll need to make the right prices for your goods and keep a sharp eye on what the folks as well as regulars want, if you aim to line your pockets with gold before you close for the night – and walk to your beautiful home overlooking the town.
Use them hard-earned bucks, fins and dixies to grow your store, bring in new products or beautify the place with a fresh lick o’ paint.
And if you grow tired of goin’ all solo, hire yourself a helper, or two. Or three. Just remember – out here the customer’s always right and money talks.
Once the sun dips down, head back to your homestead, a place you can build up just the way you like.
Kick off your boots, watch out for snakes and rest up for the long haul. As they say, New York wasn’t built in a day, and before you know it, you’re the most legendary storekeep this side of the great lakes.
Get ready for a true Western shop experience when the demo for Wild West General Store Simulator hits the trail in the Steam Next Fest startin’ June 9. Although.
Why wait that long? Enjoy catchin’ the shoppin’ worm as an early bird and start on June 2nd.
So saddle your horses and ride over yonder to the official Steam page, where you can toss it on your wishlist.
Features:
- Your Store, Your Choice
You have control over every store element from shelves to interior design. Optimize your displays, so your customers have a pleasant and wholesome shopping experience in your general store and find what they are looking for. A happy customer will be a returning customer. Can you bring back life to the deserted ghost town? - Manage your stock
Order your stock from over 70 goods from food items to weapons, tools and furniture. Barter with suppliers and wandering traders in an ever changing economic environment, where supply and demand is in constant flow. Adjust your prices to maximize the profits and react to changing markets and base prices. But don’t overdo it – a lost customer might never return. - Do-It-Yourself
Unpack goods, stack the shelves and organize your storage space. Work the cash register and make sure that the customer gets the best service possible. Or hire helpers to help with the daily business. - Expand your store
More is definitely more. Satisfied customers bring more business and a demand for more varied goods. So expand your property or build a second floor to display everything you have to offer. Who knows? Maybe you can take over a few of the other deserted shops in town and build a commercial district. - You’ll never know what’cha gonna get
Watch the town grow as your product variety increases and attracts more patrons. React to a multitude of events influencing your customers’ needs and shopping behavior. - Mini Games
Participate in fun mini-games like the Tomahawk Throwing Contest. Take on the leaderboards and unlock new licences for your shop. - Keep Your Poker Face
From time to time suppliers old and new might offer you a mystery box that can contain a wide variety of items or an extended amount of goods. The contents can bring a tremendous profit – if you are willing to take a risk. - Make yourself at home
You are not only responsible for the interior of the shop. Overlooking the town from a hill is your house, just waiting to be personalized and decorated.
