Gamer Stop Simulator turns you into a video game store owner

The simulation genre is expanding to offer players the opportunity to discover all kinds of experiences. We recently showed you that you could manage your own card shop in TCG Card Shop Simulator; now Gamer Stop Simulator allows you to do the same with a video game store. This new management simulator puts you behind the counter of your own gaming shop, where selling games is only the beginning of the business.

Build your own dream game store

Gamer Stop Simulator revolves around growing a small video game shop into a thriving business. You can stock the shelves with games, consoles and accessories, set prices, serve customers and gradually expand the store. The game requires you to pay attention to demand, and take advantage of each game's popularity level. Managing inventory is an important part of the experience.

The store is also more than a place where customers exchange money for plastic boxes. Used games and hardware can be bought from customers. You can inspect and repair them before putting them back on sale. You can also repair broken consoles. All products have to be tested, and potentially profitable deals have to be negotiated. In other words, you get to experience the glamorous world of retail without having to actually open a real shop.

There is also a collecting side to the business. Rare retro games can become particularly interesting acquisitions, while collectible cartridges can even be obtained through a retro cassette vending machine. You can sell your discoveries for a tidy profit or keep them for yourown private collection.

As the business grows, you will need to hire employees to take care of different aspects of the shop, including cashier duties, warehouse work, cleaning and security. That means your time can eventually be spent on other aspects of the business rather than wondering why nobody has restocked the shelves. Online orders add another layer to the experience, as they will require you to manage products and shipments while keeping your physical store running smoothly.

The full experience also introduces a story with characters, missions and events surrounding the store. So while making money remains an important objective, there is more going on behind the counter than deciding whether that suspiciously battered console is worth buying.

From tiny shop to gaming empire

Gamer Stop Simulator combines retail management with collecting, repairs, exploration and customization, creating a simulator that offers an engaging experience. The premise is simple enough: buy games, sell games, expand the store and make money. However, new profitable opportunities will appear as the business grows, and things can quickly become considerably more complicated.
