About the Game

WELCOME TO RETAIL HELL

Clock in at the only convenience store in the liminal void between life and death. Juggle supernatural customer service, collapsing inventory, and unravel the truth behind your own damnation.

As an overworked clerk stuck in a literal dead-end job you'll have to deal with the unpredictable threats of the abyss and manage your stock in order to pay your debt to the faceless management.

In this psychological horror job simulator, the mundane is your lifeline. If the store goes under, your soul goes with it.

EMPLOYEE HANDBOOK

  • Run your store
    Keep the coffee brewing, make hot dogs, maintain your machinery and keep your store tidy. Be ready for anything.

  • The customer is always right (even the dead ones)
    Fulfil strange requests from a roster of grotesque entities while avoiding reality-warping curses and unexpected eldritch side effects.
    Serve them quickly and you might get a tip, or upset them and face the consequences.

  • Survive the shift
    Manage your resources, trade for grisly upgrades, keep your shelves stocked and decipher cryptic orders from the dead.

UNCOVER YOUR PAST

This isn't just a job; it's a prison. Uncover the sins of your past life (and death) to understand why you’re trapped in this fluorescent-lit corner of the afterlife.

With multiple endings to discover, will you piece together the mystery of your purgatory and break the cycle, or are you doomed to forever be employee of the month?
