Soukh
Discover Soukh - a Middle Eastern-inspired fantasy shopkeeping and strategy game. Run a chaotic bazaar with demanding customers, dispatch caravans and conquer challenges to gather exotic loot. Guide an exiled merchant’s rise. Will the sands lift him to glory… or bury him in stories left untold?
You were once an upcoming star of the lucrative Bazhi Empire until the organization you worked for turned on you and sent you on exile. Now, you’re back where it all started: a crumbling village at the edge of the desert, your hometown. But a merchant with nothing to lose only has everything to gain.
Soukh is a vibrant blend of shop management, light strategy, and quirky minigames, all set in a world inspired by the rich aesthetics of Middle Eastern and Asian cultures.
The Art of the Hustle
Forget "set it and forget it" pricing. In a real Soukh, the price is whatever you can talk the customer into paying.
Simulating Soukhs in real life, you have to approach the customer instead of standing behind a cash counter, letting you engage with the customers in real time!
Active Haggling: Engage in fast-paced minigames to charm, pressure, or out-negotiate your customers.
Crowd Control: Manage a chaotic market filled with impatient shoppers, silver-tongued rivals, and the occasional thief looking for a freebie.
Market Mastery: Keep your shelves stocked and your eyes on the trends, or risk being left with a warehouse full of worthless stock.
