Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
Every market we collect.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 2.71/day in the week to Sep 12 → 4.86/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 24 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,419 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

のんびり本屋を経営、ではあるんだけどなかなかの混雑ぶりの本屋さん。 補充やレジはスタッフを早い段階で雇える。 本の種類が多いからそれぞれの本の内容のちょっとした概要とかあるとさらに思い入れが生まれそう。 〇〇Simulatorの中でも好きな作品です。 もうすぐ製品版。さらに期待してます。
Bookshop Simulator ist ein sehr schönes Spiel zum Entspannen – besonders, wenn man genügend Mitarbeiter hat, die die Arbeit erledigen. xD Hehe. Nee, aber es macht schon Spaß. Immer wenn ich es gespielt habe, hatte ich danach direkt wieder Bock zu lesen. Leider kam es nie dazu. Meine Leseflaute hat mich momentan richtig im Griff. Trotzdem würde ich mir tatsächlich ein paar Bücher holen, weil mich ihre Buchcover total angesprochen haben. :)
if you ever wanted to own your own bookstore this is your game. all kinds of books you get a pet cat, and special books that make the game special what i love is the customers dont yell at you hurry up or get made and your workers dont take days off or have to take breaks they are always there for you. i love this game highly recomond
Perfectly cozy. As a reader, I really enjoyed every single title of the books. My only wish was for books to be unlocked faster so I could get the whole series. I did only open the first shop though, so maybe with more playing I will be able to unlock more from series. Love the kitties and the progression. Basically as soon as I get bored of doing a task, I'm ready / in the position to hire out, and progress my shop. Perhaps spent too long in one area, but I was enjoying all the decorating and looking forward to opening my next location :)
Adorable and very satisfying bookshop sim, i easily loose a whole day playing. <3
There are many simulator games out there covering just about anything you can imagine, but this is the first bookshop sim I've seen. Starting with a single bookshop and just you as the staff, you have to buy stock and furniture (shelves, till etc) and get the business up and running on your own. Once you've got a bit of cash in the bank you can hire an assistant to help and so on. Once to get to a certain point you can buy another shop, add things to your shops such as coffee shops. Nothing is too rushed, there are no time limits for tasks that I've found. Just a great game to while away a few quiet hours, or even days :)
I can't believe how much love was put into the little details of this game. It's so relaxing, so stress free, so charming. Every new book title and cover makes me happy. AND YOU CAN HAVE SHOP CATS. Perfect game no notes
