Run a shop in a world that doesn't deserve one

Dark Workshop is a first-person shop management sim set in a grim fantasy world. Buy ingredients from shady suppliers, brew potions and forge weapons at

your crafting stations, set your prices, and sell to the creatures that walk through your door — orcs, mercenaries, plague doctors, and worse.

Your Shop, Your Rules

Stock your shelves, set your own prices, and watch the market. Supplier costs fluctuate, world events shift demand, and customers will walk out if you

get too greedy. Read the signs, prepare during the rumor phase, and profit when chaos hits.

A World That Comes to You

Armies camp outside your door and send generals to bulk-buy weapons. Plagues sweep the land and doctors rush in for potions. Floods wash through the

swamp, and the Witch-Hunter comes knocking. Every event reshapes what you can buy, what customers want, and what it all costs.

Get Your Hands Dirty

Venture into the swamp, cave, and graveyard to gather ingredients yourself. Catch thieves stealing from your shelves — with a hammer. Hire zombie

employees to stock shelves, work the register, collect ingredients, and guard against thieves while you focus on the bigger picture.
