inKONBINI: One Store. Many Stories

 
inKONBINI: One Store. Many Stories is a cozy, narrative-driven simulation game developed by Nagai Industries and published by Beep Japan, with Serenity Forge handling physical distribution. It released on April 30, 2026 for PC, Mac, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and Switch 2. You play as a college student spending summer behind the counter of a small-town convenience store inspired by early 1990s Japan.
Sobre el juego
inKONBINI is a meditative, single-player experience centered on human connection and everyday moments rather than high-stakes drama. Your days are shaped by simple, tactile actions like stocking shelves and ringing up customers. The heart of the game lies in its regulars — customers who return again and again, each carrying quiet stories that unfold gradually through conversation and choice.
Developer Nagai Industries, a Tokyo-based independent studio, built the game around nostalgia and the quiet beauty of everyday life.
