In 2024, it seems that every major release is followed by some small indie title that sweeps up all the players with its charm. And September is no different, as TCG Card Shop Simulator has attracted quite a few more players than even Frostpunk 2 or God of War: Ragnarok.

Released on Sept. 15, TCG Card Shop Simulator lets you “open your own local game store” and perfect the card shop experience for your virtual patrons, who won’t have to suffer those issues your only card shop in town has. The game currently sits at a whopping 95 percent positive Steam reviews, putting it in the rare and respectable “Overwhelmingly Positive” category, with players praising its simple yet addictive gameplay loop. And, given how popular trading cards themselves are, it’s no wonder that the game has managed to attract over 38,000 players during its peak on Sept. 22 per SteamDB.
