  • Tiny Bookshop is a completely wonderful game where we run a little mobile bookshop in a small town by the sea. We sell books, we buy books, we chat about books!
    It seems that we're on a voyage of discovery. We don't find out exactly why but we've sold everything we own to purchase our bookshop-on-wheels and set up by the sea.
    As we play we meet the characters of the local area. There's a former bookshop owner who is keen to help us out, the newspaper reporter who finds us quite interesting, the sailor who gives us a challenge, and more! We also get to move to different locations to sell our books, like the beach or in the town itself.
    Each area attracts people who are interested in particular genres of books, for example travel, crime, drama and fantasy, so we have to make sure we have enough stock to sell. We can pick up more stock by buying books from the classified ads! Sometimes we have to offer recommendations to our customers about what book they should try.
    Also, brilliantly, we get to decorate the bookshop. Not only do we get to choose the colours but we can also buy decoratives and place them in or around the bookshop! There are plants and signs and boxes and nautical themed things and much more!
    Honestly I could have played this for hours. It's brilliant and we'll definitely be back for more!
    NOTE: This is the demo version of the game.

    Leave everything behind and open a tiny bookshop by the sea in this cozy narrative management game.
    Stock your Tiny Bookshop with different books and items, set up shop in scenic locations, and run your cozy second-hand bookshop while getting to know the locals.
    Decorate your Tiny Bookshop with the items you collect. Are you into absolutely plastering it with plants? Maybe a spooky candle-lit atmosphere is more your style? Every item also has an effect on your customers and can introduce new mechanics.
    Recommend the right book to the right person ~ or try to expand their literary horizon? Sometimes they just need a little help finding a book they will love!
    Befriend Bookstonbury's quirky cast of characters and help each other out! They're friendly, promise :)
    Stock books of different genres to satisfy the locals’ reading habits and watch your customers trickle in. Every place around town attracts a slightly different crowd, so get to know your audience and become a master bookseller!
    Explore the scenic places of charming Bookstonbury-by-the-Sea and learn the ins and outs of the town. Discover its long history ~ what happened at Bookston Burgh? And who really was St. Bookston?
    Discover secrets, collect items and grow your stamp collection as you explore the nooks and crannies of Bookstonbury. Who knows what else you'll find?
    We're working hard to bring the world of Tiny Bookshop to life :) You can support us by wishlisting and following us on steam.

      I do enjoy a bookshop, there's a really nice one in the town where my in-laws live, it's great to just spend a while pottering about in there in the quiet.

      I was going to call the video "Who will buy my books today?" after Manny's song but thought it would be too obscure!
      I love Black Books, one of my very favourite sitcoms.

    When one of your patrons mentioned he liked Algernon Blackwood's style, it made me want to read The Wendigo again.
    If Terry Pratchett is in the fantasy section, I'll buy the game.

    WOW, I've read lord of the rings first time at 11 years old, my mother told me it was a child's book. Didn't know it was considered a challenging book 😅

    • @TheGeekCupboard
      @TheGeekCupboard  Před 2 měsíci +1

      I'd say Lord of the Rings is quite challenging, in terms of it's use of language and sentence structures.
