Beautiful little piece of art, it creates a very nice atmosphere with the stylized graphics and cozy otherworldly music. Hunting around the store for weird and mundane little trinkets is surprisingly satisfying. It's definitely a game that sticks in my memory as a very unique kind of experience. If you think the art looks cool check it out.
Late night shopper looks for perfect gift in magical realism walking sim There is an odd joy in perusing items in a tiny convenience store in the middle of the night. The game captures this vibe and blends it with hints of larger mystical world outside the store. It's like a vivid short story that left me wanting more.
