Supermarket Simulator is a business sim for PC from Nokta Games, available on Steam, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox/PC Game Pass. You take over an empty store, stock the shelves, price your products, and run the checkout yourself.
There is no story to follow. You build the business at your own pace, one delivery truck at a time.
The pricing system is what makes it different from other store sims. You set every price yourself, and customers react in real time if you charge too much or too little. Get it wrong and shelves sit full while customers walk out empty handed.
Supermarket Simulator left Early Access with its full 1.0 release on June 19, 2025. Online co-op for up to 4 players arrived October 8, 2025.

What Is Supermarket Simulator?
Supermarket Simulator puts you in charge of an empty store. You start by unpacking delivery boxes, stocking shelves, and setting your own prices for every product you sell.
As you earn money, you unlock more shelf space, new product categories, and store upgrades. There is no combat and no way to lose. The challenge comes from balancing what customers want against what you can afford to stock.

You Will Love It If:
- ✅ You enjoy slow, methodical management games
- ✅ You want a co-op game with no combat or pressure

You Might Not If:
- ❌ You want a story or scripted objectives
- ❌ You need fast-paced action to stay engaged

🎮 Our Take
Supermarket Simulator works because it keeps things simple. The pricing system gives you a real decision to make every time you restock, and that one mechanic carries the whole game. Reviews have stayed Very Positive since the 1.0 launch, and the added co-op mode gave it a second wind by turning a slow solo game into something you can run with friends.
If you like slow-paced management games with no pressure, this is worth buying now. If you prefer games with a clear story or goal to chase, you might find the open-ended structure gets repetitive after a few hours.
