Defeat humans by managing a shop
Goblin's Shop is a free pixel-art simulation game developed by CYCLOPS. Here, players take on the role of a goblin who aims to take revenge on humans. To do that, he opens a shop that sells weapons, armors, and potions to monsters.
More than simulation, Goblin's Shop is also an RPG-adventure title. Players have to undertake adventures with their customers to acquire better crafting materials. There are over 100 items for crafting to collect, and there are random events and adventure quests. However, leveling up takes ages. Moreover, over time, the lack of variety becomes evident, making it monotonous.
How do you play this game?
Goblin's Shop features a goblin who has been bullied by humans and has always wished to get even. Unfortunately, he lacks the strength to beat even one human soldier. To gain what he lacks, he decided to open a shop for monsters. Here, he sells weapons, armors, and potions that his customers can use against his enemies. Additionally, he puts up a team of monsters to take revenge.
Together with his team, the goblin will go on adventures on various human territories to acquire crafting materials. There are 44 territories available, however, all of which are guarded by human soldiers. Your customers will serve as your shield defending you against the enemies. Although, to make them stronger, you must craft better equipment. Note also that the customer has to be a VIP to be in your team.
As mentioned, there are over 100 crafting items to collect. You also have a large roster of monsters with random talent systems. Moreover, the adventure quests and events are random. However, you will find that leveling up is incredibly slow. Additionally, you can only take up to four companions with you. Furthermore, the gameplay lacks variation in that you will do the same thing, despite reaching new stages.
Is the game good?
Overall, Goblin's Shop is a fun casual game that you can play. It has easy-to-grasp gameplay, consisting mainly of taking care of your shop or out in the world map doing overland dungeons and harvesting crafting items. However, while it is fun—at first—the lack of variety makes it monotonous. Over time, doing the same thing over and over will make the game boring.
