June 2025
King of Retail is an absolute gem for anyone who’s ever been curious about what it takes to run a successful store. I’m thoroughly impressed by the level of detail this game offers, especially when it comes to product placement. It’s not just cosmetic – where you place your items genuinely affects customer behavior, and mastering that system adds a rich layer of strategic depth. What really hooked me is the attention to sales strategy. The game doesn't just throw you into the deep end – it gives you a toolkit full of analytics, trends, and customer feedback to help craft the ideal approach. Whether you're focusing on managing your staff or optimizing your store layout, every decision matters. It's more than just a management sim – it's a love letter to retail done right. For players who enjoy a detailed, hands-on approach to business, King of Retail delivers a highly rewarding experience. I loved every minute of building my brand from the ground up.

Likely the best real business simulation out there. Can't wait for King of Retail 2 to fix on some of the frustrations, but this is already an awesome game to play, no doubt about it.

We are now in the wave of seemingly AI Generated simulator games, and above all of those stands King of Retail. This game is very very fun, and they're working on a sequel to compete in the now saturated store management niche. People like myself who like this game and others like it are kinda crazy, because we want to go to our real life jobs, and come home and work at our not real life job that pays us nothing (we actually got to pay to play the game) But beyond that, if you're like me, PLAY IT!

I was bummed out at first when I learned that the dev abandoned the game to work on KoR 2. But if I look at it objectively I support the decision, furthermore it was communicated openly, which I respect. About the game, you can easily bury 100+ hours until you realize that it jumped from like 0.18 to 1.0. If you buy it on sales, you will definitely get your money's worth.
