Evaluation

Tobacco Shop Simulator: Prologue is a free prologue — a deliberately limited preview version of the full Tobacco Shop Simulator game. The store description explicitly describes it as "a free prologue version of Tobacco Shop Simulator" with "a limited amount of contracts," making clear that it is a self-contained sampler rather than a game receiving ongoing content updates of its own. The full game, Tobacco Shop Simulator, launched on December 9, 2024, and reached version 1.0 on June 22, 2025. These milestones belong to the full product, not to this prologue. The prologue itself has not received any content updates of its own, and no additional content has been announced for it. As a free demo/prologue, it shipped as a complete, intentionally constrained product on November 1, 2024, and there is no indication the developer plans to expand it further.

About this game

[Tobacco Shop Simulator: Prologue is a free prologue version of Tobacco Shop Simulator. In this game, you'll have a limited amount of contracts.]

This is a first-person simulation game where you step into the role of a tobacco shop owner.

Work alone or with friends to expand your humble shop into a huge tobacco shop.

Co-Op Mode and Single Player

Share the duties with your friends in co-op mode (for up to 4 players).

The more players in the store, the more demanding customers will visit your store.

Also, you can go solo and manage everything in the store. You can invite your friends anytime if you change your mind.

Store Workflow

Sign contracts with leading brands, order new products with an in-game computer or with your tablet while walking in the store, unpack the boxes, place the products into your store, and set the prices for your products.

Consider the market prices while setting up your product prices in the store for customer satisfaction.

Always keep your store clean so as not to lose any customers. Also, be careful with the thieves to avoid some box losses that would cause a leak in your finances.

Products

Please make sure your customers find all their needs in the store.

Always expand your product portfolio and satisfy your customers.

Cigarettes, lighters, pipes, cigars, ashtrays, hookahs, e-cigarettes, tobacco, and smoking accessories...

Be aware of the market prices and purchase more products when they're cheap.

Customers

Place a sufficient number of checkouts to reduce the waiting time for customers.

Scan products and collect payments whether in cash or with card purchases.

Don't forget to fulfill the online orders.

Expansions and New Teammates

Expand your store and warehouse by leveling up your store and budget.

Hire stockers to fill the racks.

Purchase more cash registers and hire new cashiers to minimize long queues at the checkouts and to reduce waiting time for customers.
