Oberhaching, Germany, June 9, 2025 - Publisher SunDust, a label from the German publishing folks at Toplitz Productions is proud as a peacock to announce that the demo for Wild West General Store Simulator is available now as part of the rip-roaring Steam Next Fest!
Pack your bags and travel back to days yore where you’ll be takin’ over the granddaddy of what will become supermarkets. Deck your shop, located in the middle of a dusty ole ghost town, with all manner of goods - from mighty fine baked beans and other foods right up to tools. Walk the thin line between supply, demand and them pesky profit margins. Savor the sweet “Ka-ching!” of the cash register ringing in your ears as coins start fillin’ your pockets.
Earn your stripes by unlockin’ new products and fancy stuff as your store grows and you have to tell yourself, that the customer is king, as they get mighty particular bout their needs. Prove that you got what it takes to handle random calamities like grain or meat shortages, so you ain’t gotta go to the bank beggin’ for a loan to stay afloat. Need some help? Hire a trusty sidekick to work the checkout or wrangle the stock, Test your mettle in a mostly fair and square contest of Tomahawk Tossin’ to win new licences for your store or tempt fate when you spend your hard-earned dough on mystery crates packed with rare treasure or more stuff to peddle to the townsfolk.
For them hardcore shopkeepers, they can try the “Realistic Prices” mode, where every penny counts just like in the 1800s. Try makin’ ends meet when all you’ve got are nickels and dimes to bring home to Molly!
