There is a shop type game on steam that just recently released (Early Access of course) called Teddy’s Haven. You set up a shop, you upgrade the shop, decorate the shop, customers come, and then there’s also things to do outside of the shop – adventuring type things. Farming and gathering type things. Sometimes strangers wander by and sit outside, buffing your shop sales for the day. There’s also some cats you can pet. Yesterday someone dropped off a baby bear and I’m supposed to use a heal potion on it but I have no idea how to do that. You can stock your shop with things from a never ending catalog (they cost coin) or you can harvest items yourself from the beautiful world around you.
The characters who come to your shop are all sorts. Pictured above, a flock of … geese… came by. What on earth the geese wanted daggers and swords for – well, I’m just the shop owner. It’s not my job to judge the patrons.
The game was only $15 CAD, and I found it to be absolutely worth the money. I can’t wait to see what else gets added to this game, but even if nothing were to change from the state that I played today, it’s still absolutely worth what I paid for it (and more).
As always, happy gaming – no matter where you find yourself.
