Short description

Späti Tycoon is a shopkeeper simulator for mobile. Order stock, fill shelves, work the register and check IDs — while handling shoplifters, weather swings, fires and burst pipes. Six shops in six countries, cities built by hand. Ten in-game days free, then one single purchase. No ads, no subscription.

Long description

In Späti Tycoon you run your own small store — not a supermarket chain, but the corner shop down the road. You order stock, fill the shelves, work the register yourself and decide on every sale: scan it, or ask for ID first. Sell an age-restricted item without checking and it costs you a fine.

Every in-game day has its own headline. A heatwave, endless rain, payday or a football night shift what the neighbourhood buys — and how long the queue gets. In between, the things that happen in a real shop happen here too: shoplifters work their way along the aisles, a pipe bursts, a fire breaks out. Grow the shop and you hire staff and build it out.

There are six shops in six countries: the Berlin Späti, the Viennese Trafik, the Italian bar, the Turkish bakkal, the Japanese konbini and the corner store for everywhere else. Range, prices, customers and neighbourhood change with it. Developer Martin Langhammer builds the cities by hand in his own editor.

The first ten in-game days are free. After that, a single purchase unlocks the whole game — no ads, no subscription, no energy timer.
