The Demo Is Live

Dark Workshop Simulator's demo is now available to download and play, completely free. Step behind the counter of your own dark-fantasy shop, where the ingredients are stranger than the customers.

What's Inside

  • Brew potions, forge weapons, and stock your shelves your way

  • A market that shifts under you — plagues, war bands, and rumors change what sells

  • Explore and unlock new rooms as your shop grows

  • Deal with thieves, oddball travelers, and the occasional bulk buyer

Help Me Shape It

This demo is still evolving, and your feedback genuinely shapes what comes next. Run into a bug or have thoughts on the shop-keeping loop? Drop them on our Discussions or reach me through my website.

If you like what you find, wishlisting the game is the single biggest help you can give us right now.
