Night of the Consumers is an engaging PC indie video game published in 2020 on the PC distribution platform ich.io that puts players in the shoes of a retail worker during the busiest shopping season.



While the many games of his genre are set in a full horror environment, this game focuses on the mundane and eventful challenges that happen during nightshift in a large store where demanding customers are causing just enough chaos to always keep the player on their feet. Eventually, the game shows its full horror potential, offering users many unexpected moments.

And to make the atmosphere of the game as engaging and appealing as possible, the sole developer of this unique title has managed to infuse it with just the right amount of eerie sounds and gameplay events, to transform this simple-looking 3D game world into an engaging puzzle game that can be replayed as much time as players want.
