Something you see a lot in cozy games is a scenario where you move to a small island or a rustic neighborhood, then use your farm or shop to revitalize it, bringing new life to a sweet but neglected little town. Those vibes are definitely present in supermarket management simDiscounty… at least at first.

But there’s something else going on in the Discounty trailer revealed today at Wholesome Direct today. The act of becoming a successful businessperson is seasoned with a dash of capitalist dystopia.
“You won’t settle for good enough, will you?” the narrator continues before the trailer goes completely off the rails, showing protesters picketing outside your Discounty store, toxic waste polluting a river, and black smoke billowing from an industrial chimney. Are you saving this cute little town, or destroying it?
I’m always up for a new shop sim, and I love the idea of there being repercussions to success, because there always are. It’s also nice to see an idyllic little town showing its darker side, because there always is one.Discountyis coming to PC sometime next year.
