The V1.3 update is now live.

This update brings together the systems and improvements we've been developing since launch, focused on expanding and refining the shop management experience while laying the groundwork for what's coming next.

LIMITED-TIME SALE — NOW ON

Blind Box Shop Simulator is currently 15% OFF.

Whether you're opening your first blind box shop or bringing a friend along, now is a good time to start.

NEW CONTENT

Special NPC Hiring Raise an NPC's affinity by giving gifts, and once the requirement is met, hire them on as a permanent employee. · Shop promotion: send your cuter special NPCs out to promote the shop and draw in more foot traffic · Photo wall: special NPCs pose for photos with customers, generating extra income

Shop Review System Customers now rate your shop across three categories: · Display: how your figures and collectibles are presented · Décor: the overall layout and atmosphere of the shop · Service: how well you handle customers during business hours

Collection Room A personal collection room with no business pressure and no clock to watch. · Plenty of space to display as many figures, cabinets, and prized pieces as you like · All furniture is free — decorate however you want · Unlock carryover: every piece of furniture and décor unlocked in your management save is available here

Shop Expansion · Placeable shop floor extended by 3 additional rows · Warehouse storage grid extended by 3 additional rows

Multiple Save Slots 10 save slots are now available, each saved independently.

New Furniture · Furniture storage rack (warehouse only) · Series collection cabinets (7 designs) · Paintable partition walls

IMPROVEMENTS

· Quick unboxing: common figures skip the reveal card, with the full figure reveal reserved for secrets — a major speed-up · Rare figure crowds: displaying rare figures can draw a crowd of onlookers and boost sales · Late-night ordering: the time restriction is gone — place orders from the shop menu at any hour · Restocker AI improvements · Numerous refinements, bug fixes, and polish

Thank you to everyone who has played the game, sent feedback, reported issues, written a review, or simply followed along with development.

With V1.3 out, we'll be moving on to the next phase of the roadmap.
