About this gameFull description from Steam
Model Kit Shop Simulator is a first-person store management game where every sale starts with a Model Kit. Build and grow your own hobby shop by ordering master boxes, unpacking deliveries, stocking shelves, setting prices, and serving collectors and enthusiasts. But running a successful model kit shop is not just about selling boxes. To maximize profits, you need to keep the right matching paints in stock, increase basket value through the Hobby Basket System, and give customers a place to bring their projects to life with the Build Table. Core Systems Hobby Basket System Customers do not just buy a single kit — they start a project. When a customer picks a model kit, they may also look for the matching paints needed to complete it. If you keep those paints on your shelves, they can add them to their basket, increasing the total value of each sale. If the paints are missing, they may still buy the kit, but your basket value and profit will be lower. Build Table System Customers who complete the right kit-and-paint combination can pay to use a Build Table after checkout. There, they sit down, start assembling their kit, and turn a box of parts into a finished model right inside your shop. This makes your store feel more alive and adds a distinctive hobby-shop experience beyond traditional retail management. Success depends on smart stock planning, efficient shelf management, the right product variety, and creating a store that supports both shopping and building. Features Run your own first-person model kit shop Order and unpack products from master boxes Stock shelves and organize your store layout Set prices and manage your profits Use the Hobby Basket System to increase basket value Keep matching paints in stock to support model kit sales Let customers use Build Tables to assemble their kits after checkout Unlock theme licenses and expand your product variety Grow from a small shop into a larger hobby business Build a store that hobby fans love and turn your small shop into a thriving model kit business.
