Faire Trade

The game is okay. It's the same thing as Winkeltje but prettier. It needs some complexity. Like a tech tree or open world objectives. Overall not disappointing but also not exciting.

Un juego con muchas posibilidades, esperemos que sigan implementando mas cositas chulas. Mi review: https://youtu.be/A9Kv1notpg8

Currently, the game is quite underbaked. I do think some people will like it once the game has progressed further, but I don't recommend buying it in its current state if you want it as a game to play now. I like the general vibe, and I think it will be a worthwhile purchase eventually. It is mostly playable in the sense that the base functionality works, there's just a lot of issues and it feels very empty. The gameplay loop consists of checking what types of items will sell the best that day, buying any materials for crafting that you need, placing items out to sell, and opening the shop for customers. The customers buy stuff and leave. At the end of the day your shop closes and your staff (if you've hired any) go home. You can do more buying, crafting, make any changes you want to your shop, and then you go to bed and start it over the next day. There are events that happen throughout the year that influence prices and availability of ingredients. You can also have a garden and grow some ingredients yourself. This game is a bit empty compared to how most modern games are designed, and while some of that is due to it being early access, I think it's also the intended general design choice of the game. It kind of grows on you, so I'm not saying this as a complaint, but it's not going to be everyone's cup of tea. It's very quiet and nothing really happens, and sometimes that is nice. You can make your own rules about what items you sell, decide what type of crafting (if any) you want to do, be a gardener, baker, etc, but the game isn't really going to engage with you in response to those decisions so it's up to you. The game kind of punishes you for not being well rounded as well, due to the way prices fluctuate. I recommend *not* trying to specialize, unless you are okay with your progress being slower. The difference between being able to take advantage of the fluctuations in the market vs always selling the same type of items is huge. Assuming the best faith I can muster in regards to how this game will progress, you may like this game if you like no-pressure shop keeping simulators, designing and decorating the shop, and watching the market prices to make the most money you can. The empty world doesn't bother you, as you just want to run your shop. Judging early access games can be really tricky. I feel guilty doing it because I think the devs will improve the game, but for now I have to mark it as not recommended. I will change that once sufficient updates are released.

Noch im early access, verspricht aber bereits jetzt Winkeltje zu übertreffen. Finde es bis jetzt schade, dass die Schulden-abzahlen-Herausforderung fehlt, aber wer weiß, was noch kommt.

I am 100% addicted to this game, just like I was Winkeltje! They've taken a good game and made it even better. It was a little slow to start, and there are a few things I miss from the old game, but it's early access and I'm so excited to see where this games goes in it's development! For me, this is the shop game I've been itching for. Thank you devs :3

cute and fun

Ein super angenehmes Spiel und ein würdiger Nachfolger von Winkeltje. Sehr zu empfehlen für alle, die solche Spiele mögen.

Relaxing game.

Love this game! Not a big surprise because I enjoyed their last game. A pure shop game that is deep and complex while still being chill to play.

:D
