Evaluation

GeckoShop launched into Early Access on April 24, 2025 and reached its full 1.0 release on June 6, 2026. Throughout development, the game received a consistent series of major updates — including a massive v0.2 overhaul on July 21, 2025 (adding multiplayer, map expansion, and gecko breeding) and Set 7 with legendary geckos on August 31, 2025. The most significant ongoing development signal comes from two recent developer announcements. On June 13, 2026, the developer revealed that the entire original GeckoShop is being rewritten from scratch in C#, delivered as a major update to the existing game rather than a separate release. This "Remake Update" is designed to fix foundational issues and explicitly enable continued content support going forward. On August 25, 2026 — just two days before today — the developer posted an update confirming the new codebase is functional and that a public beta for the Remake Update is opening soon on Discord. The same post also confirms that GeckoShop 2 is fully complete and waiting, with both games targeted for release by the end of 2026. The developer is actively improving both projects in parallel until their releases. Anyone considering a purchase should be aware that the game is still being substantially reworked. The upcoming Remake Update will change the game's technical foundation, and the developer has committed to continued content support following that release.

About this game

Everything about GeckoShop:

GeckoShop is a Sandbox Shop Simulator + Creature Collector, where you manage your own shop, selling all the different varieties of geckos!

"Your dream of having your own Petshop finally comes true. Get cozy and have a fun time collecting and selling lizards, or grind hard and be the next millionare on this island!"

You'll have to:

  • Deal with customers, set your own Prices.

  • Keep the store clean and working, or get Employees to do it for you!

  • Explore the small open-world city, with People to interact with, Quests and other things at every corner.

  • Find Shells and ancient Artifacts on the beach to fill the museum, to unlock even more content as you go.

  • Accept Quests from various NPCs on the island.

  • Catch Thieves trying to steal from your shop.

  • Decorate and upgrade your store, however you want. 

Collect a big variety of different types and rarities of Lizards.

You can sell your pets, or turn your Shop into a zoo!

There are hundreds of geckos for you to unlock, in 4 rarities. Through opening chests, mutating geckos in the Lab, Vending machines, and through sidequests.

Buy and open different Boxes, to get random Geckos from that set, and if you're lucky enough you might even find a Super rare gecko.

Upgrade, Decorate and Paint your Shop, however you feel like.

Hire Employees to assist you to sell pets and products, clean trash from your store, and catch thieves before they can steal anything.

Keep your shop small or upgrade it to the maximum, make a giant warehouse full of rare items and animals.

Collect Trophies to display in the Backroom of your Shop, to keep track of your Progress.

Explore the City, Mutate Geckos, Eat burgers, Repeat.

The City is full of Surprises! Check out the Lab, where "Zippy Joe" made a machine to mutate 5 geckos into another one, and with some luck you might even get a Lab-exclusive gecko (very rare, they sparke in rainbow colors!)

Go to the Wrenchshop, and talk with "Bolt" about upgrading your shop, or go to the Paintshop and let "Doodle" paint your whole Shop.

Get yourself a Companion from the Petshop, or race against other geckos!

And dont forget to get a Burger from the restaurant next to the Beach ;)

Sidequests everywhere!

You might want to go treasure hunting, or collect shells and ancient artifacts to keep the museum growing.

Or maybe you want to catch fishes all day long and forget about your customers!
Sell your fishes to "Skipper", but don't worry, you'll see in your Collection which fishes you've already catched, and which ones are missing.
