May 2025

Winkeltje is a strategic game about running a shop. This is an incredibly straight forward game, and in a really, really good way. It knows exactly what it is, what it wants to be, and it offers a LOT of customization and a LOT of replayability. You can run a really great shop! IT TAKES A LOT OF WORK AND TIME TO GET THERE. It does not hold your hand, and it does not tell you how to play the game. You play it and discover that for yourself. The difficulties matter in this game. If you open a shop on easy, you're going to have a chill time. Any harder, and you've got debts to pay, insane events you can't control to get around, and the prices of products merchants carry is going to be VERY tenuous. You run a shop. This is the point of the game. If you want to fight monsters, this isn't that. If you want to use magic, this isn't that. If you want to romance people, this isn't that. You run a shop. This is a game in which you run a shop. You will start the game with a very basic shop. If you play a harder difficulty, you have debt you must pay off every so often. You can either try to be a jack of all trades- VERY difficult- or you can slowly pick a new focus for your shop and quit stocking some items. THIS GAME IS SMART. It will PAY ATTENTION to what you stock. Characters may request, for a while, items that you no longer carry, but as you tell them you don't carry it, they'll stop asking, and only request items you DO carry. You can be a shop that only sells crops. You can be a shop that sells cooked food. You can be a shop that only sells potions. You can be a shop that only sells blacksmithing items. You can be a shop that sells materials used to craft things, like iron, or wood, or leather. Whatever you decide to stock on your own, the game will take note of that, and that will become your specialty. There is an option to see what you have been specializing in within the game- I can't quite remember where, but it absolutely tracks that, and characters in game will start spending more. If events occur in which products become scarce, they cost more to buy from suppliers. You need to keep note of that, because if you need to buy way more expensive materials, you need to raise your prices. Buying from traveling merchants is VERY IMPORTANT and VERY GOOD. At times, you can absolutely save money by stocking up from traveling merchants, instead of using your materials and supplies. You can hire people eventually, but you'll need to make sure they're happy, or they won't work effectively. Keep checking how much they should be paid. At some point, they may be too high leveled and cost too much to keep happy. Let them go. Item quality will begin to matter to you. In the beginning? No. Later? Why the heck are you selling lower cost items- or worse, buying them? Stock up on as much high quality materials as possible, or make them. Watch your seeds evolve slowly over time, or your equipment, etc. It takes time, but you will suddenly blink after hours and find that you've filled the entire property and you've got an enormous store, all your own, that you earned yourself. Farming is the hardest specialty. You will never have enough inventory space. Weep. Upgrade. Weep again. Upgrade. Sob uncontrollably as ever upgrade to your store is overtaken by yet more storage upgrades. Your cat has one square foot of space to live in.

I don't really understand negative reviews. Like, what did you expect from such type of a game? It's well implemented. A lot of content, it's all similar, whole gameplay loop is very repetitive, but it's a genre problem. Completed for 100% achievements, opened even not all the content for 35h. It wasn't VERY fun from the beginning, but still did not become boring after 10, 20 and even 30h Cons - Few little bugs - No more than 1 floor - Strict income cap of 3-4k per day, no more scale options - Tiny limit of workers which are almost useless Pros + Large amount of decorations, especially season, event decorations + Possibility to gridless placement + Free walls/floors decorations (it's honest coz it doesn't affect shop rating) + A lot of recipes, profession progression + A lot of quests, even if it's similar + Events highly affecting economy adding some fresh air to the game I would save ~5-8h if found out that I can skip days by closing shop earlier :C

This reminds me of runescape - really good game to wind down to and just sit and play for hours

Very well put together game. I don't really have any real complaints other than wanting more content. Maaaaybe I have one complaint - I would like to have an option to speed up time somehow. It is not a problem in regular gameplay, but when I was trying to finish the achievements it got a little boring. I "won" the game on very hard by the end of autumn - I had enough money to pay the debt. But I needed to play through the entire winter to finish it for the achievement. So if you want all achievements and don't want to have this issue - start on very hard. It is not very hard at all. Other than that, great little game.

Fully beat the game in 23 hours. I enjoyed the short ride. Simple and relaxing game.
