FAQ
What is Anime Shop Simulator?
A first-person shop management game by One More Time, released on Steam on September 11, 2026. You run an anime store that sells manga, figures and collectible cards, alone or with up to three friends in online co-op, and there is a card game called Arcanis built in.
How much does Anime Shop Simulator cost?
$14.99 on Steam, or $12.74 during the 15% launch discount that ends September 25. There are two optional DLC packs, the Supporter Pack at $4.99 and the Naughty Shelf Pack at $6.90, and no microtransactions.
Is this the same game as the Roblox anime card shop games?
No. Searches for anime card shop or anime store simulator codes mostly turn up Roblox experiences. Anime Shop Simulator is a paid Steam game from a different developer, and it has no redeem codes.
How This Wiki Is Kept
Anime Shop Simulator Wiki is an independent, unofficial fan resource for Anime Shop Simulator players — not affiliated with One More Time.
- How we verify: Numbers come from Steam itself (store page, achievement rates, patch notes) or from at least two separate player reports on the Steam forums and in launch videos. Anything only one player has reported is labelled as a report.
- Update cadence: After every hotfix (1.0.2 and 1.0.3 so far) we re-read the patch notes and achievement rates and update the pages they touch that same week.
- What we don't do: No money cheats, no Cheat Engine tables, no pirated downloads or key-reseller links. The save-file page only covers backups and the community broken-save repair.
