One of Steam’s Best Cozy Demos is Now on PS5 & Xbox (With Switch Coming Soon)

by

In simpler terms, it’s been a year with its ups and downs for fans of relaxed gaming. Some highly anticipated games like “Pixelshire” didn’t quite live up to the hype, but we also saw some real gems such as “Fantasy Life” and upcoming titles like “Tales of the Shire” and “Witchbrook”. This year has been filled with numerous new releases, and gamers have also had the opportunity to preview some intriguing future titles. Among the top cozy demos I’ve tried on Steam this year is the shopkeeping sim, “Discounty”. Beneath its charming pixel art atmosphere, there’s a hint of something more ominous, giving it depth beyond its appearance. And now, players on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S can finally try out the “Discounty” demo for themselves!

The eagerly awaited snug-feeling game hails from Crinkle Cut Games, a Danish developer, and PQube, a publisher known for releasing cherished cozy games such as “Potion Permit” and “Cat Quest.” Now, “Discounty” will be added to their esteemed collection.

The game titled “Discounty” is marketed as a “supermarket simulation where capitalism becomes personal.” Players assume the role of a shopkeeper in the seemingly ordinary town of Blomkest, but soon discover that all is not as it seems. You’ll be stocking shelves, striking deals, and expanding your customer base, while simultaneously unveiling the town’s hidden secrets. The demo provides a taste of the gameplay, showcasing both the shopkeeping mechanics and the initial mysteries of Blomkest. Previously only accessible on PC through Steam, console players can now join in the excitement.

The demo for the game titled “Discounty” is now accessible on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, starting July 24th. This free demo can be found in the respective online stores for these consoles, offering players an opportunity to determine if this unique puzzle game aligns with their preferences. Additionally, a demo version for Nintendo Switch is scheduled for release on July 31st. In essence, gamers across various console platforms will have the chance to test “Discounty” before making a purchase decision. If you find it appealing, feel free to pre-order your copy of “Discounty” at your earliest convenience.
