We’re excited to bring Tiny Bookshop to new players with our first major Steam sale! Leave everything behind to open a tiny bookshop by the sea for 25% OFF this weekend; and for those of you who may also dream of opening your own restaurant? We have a delicious wishlist recommendation: Arcane Eats from our friends at Wonderbelly Games! In Arcane Eats, the best deck-building mechanics get spiced up by cooking elements to add a new depth of flavor and strategy. Running a restaurant is rewarding but hard – you’ll have to satisfy hangry customers, balance the books, and keep the health & purity in

Hi folks! After going back and forth with the Steam team, we were able to optimise Tiny Bookshop for the Steam Deck's screen fully! 🥳With this update, Tiny Bookshop is officially Steam Deck verified! This patch also introduces the ability to zoom in, while your shop is at a location, so even the smallest text in speech bubbles will be readable.This patch also sets the default back from Proton to Linux for the Steam Deck and Linux devices. This comes with two notes:The Proton (Windows) and Linux native versions are identical, but you might see some faster loads in the Proton version, and faste

General Fixes: Hi everyone, we’re back after recovering from Gamescom, and the stress that has been the release of our first game, with our latest patch! This one took a bit longer to figure out, because we made changes to the save system, and that requires a ton of testing and consideration, to make sure nothing breaks. Plus, it seems like the life we’ve been putting on hold before the release of TB finally caught up with us! Two of our team members got married last month, and we all had to spend some much-needed time to take care of our personal lives, after the crunch-free but still very al

Hi everyone, it’s now officially 7 days since Tiny Bookshop released, and finally, after tackling the most serious bugs, we found some time to take care of more UX and feedback. Adjusted/Fixed Maryam’s recommendation quest at the café not saving the progress consistently. Increased rain chance in spring slightly. Inspiring Klaus now counts anywhere, and not just at the supermarket. Adjusted Historic Tag. Changed it from “Written about the past” to “meeting a need of immersing yourself in the past”. Nerfed Professor Quest to make it less frustrating. Made cases visible and visually distinct to

Despite how popular the “cozy games” genre has become, many titles that fall under its umbrella lose sight of the “cozy” part—but not Tiny Bookshop. The latest indie sim darling is precisely what its name implies: you’ve started a mobile secondhand book store, operating out of a trailer pulled by your car. Each day, you venture out to one of the charming locales around the idyllic town of Bookstonbury-by-the-Sea to hawk your wares. Success depends on how well you stock your shelves and make recommendations to your indecisive patrons. Or at least, this is the core of Tiny Bookshop‘s experience—

Added a robust local backup system for saves (One on start-up and one whenever you save) Fixed an issue where the game did not start due to a Steam back-end change Fixed typos and adjusted some book tags Fixed an issue where in the final quest you would sometimes not get an important item Fixed the timing and conditions of some late game quests Known issue: There is currently an issue with Steam Cloud messing with the save files on Mac, and perhaps other OSes. That’s the reason we experienced and fixed the start-up bug, added two additional back-up systems for your save files, and did not get
