Corner Shop: NightShift

Corner Shop: Nightshift is a first-person narrative horror game with simulator mechanics set in a failing convenience store. You play Adam Callahan, a man trying to prove he can put his life back together. Every night is a test. Maintain the shop and keep yourself together. But the deeper you sink into the routine, the more the store starts to shift around you. Glitches in memory, gaps in time and a growing sense that this place remembers more than you do.

You lost your wife. You’re trying to get your daughter back. The night shift won’t let you forget that. Odd events rip you out of routine: power cuts, sudden alarms, freaks in the aisles. You need to solve the puzzles. What happened? What’s real? What’s next? Keep your stress down. Keep breathing. Don’t let the paranoia finish the job. Scared? Take your meds. Better, right?

You play Adam Callahan, a man whose world collapsed when his wife vanished, leaving him behind locked doors and their daughter in custody. Now he’s working nights in a place no one wants to be, trying to prove he’s ready to be a parent again. But the store remembers what he wants to forget. As the nights drag on, fragments of his past return, out of order, out of place, and out of his control.

Restock shelves, mop the floor, fix the damn lights. Take deliveries, scan items, and serve customers. Done? Good, now upgrade the store: new alarms, working cameras, stronger locks. Manage your time. Manage your money. Manage your mental state. No one’s coming to help and meds don’t pay for themselves. Try not to lose your job… or your mind.
