How it feels

A tense, otherworldly job simulator where you manage supernatural customer chaos and inventory collapse in a liminal afterlife convenience store.

What players say

Players praise its addictive convenience-store management loop and distinct monster designs, but split on difficulty: some love the challenge while others cite the thief enemy and instant game-overs as too punishing. A common complaint is the risk of accidentally deleting save files, and long-time players note the game is short with high replay value through multiple endings.
