About the Game

Welcome to Curio Shop,  step right in and whatever you do, don’t touch anything.

By day run a shabby little curio shop packed with strange (possibly cursed) artifacts. As customers wander in it’s your job to sell them something without accidentally killing them. Or kill them intentionally just to see what happens, I'm not judging.

By night dive into the dark corners of the web to hunt for new stock, inspecting item listings to separate the weird from the dangerous and using your earnings to upgrade your shop to your liking.

Your end goal - to gather enough gold to purchase the one artifact powerful enough to end late stage capitalism (and the world). Honestly it's a mercy at this point.

Featuring such horrors as:

  • Character & Shop Customisation 

  • 10+ Shop Upgrades

  • 130+ Unique Sellable Items

  • 32+ Unique Curses

  • Pettable Cats

  • The Apocalypse
