Simulation games have put us in the shoes of everything from power washers to goat herders, but the latest announcement from Arafkan Games and publisher PlayWay SA is bringing something beautifully chaotic to our PCs. Get ready to dust off your spiked clubs and perfect your customer service smile, because Quarantine Market Simulator is officially opening its gates on July 10!

If you’ve ever thought working retail was a nightmare, this game is about to show you what a real challenge looks like.

The Ultimate Post-Apocalyptic Side Hustle

Set in a gritty, post-apocalyptic world, Quarantine Market Simulator places you in charge of one of the very last operating markets inside a heavily fortified quarantine zone. Society may have collapsed, but people still need their canned beans, toilet roll, and survival supplies.

The game blends first-person management mechanics with high-stakes survival elements. You aren’t just scanning items; you are the thin line between a thriving community hub and total outbreak devastation.

Key Features to Expect:

• Manage Your Market: Keep the post-apocalyptic economy flowing by stocking shelves, organising inventory, and managing your prices to maximise profits.
• Quarantine Control: Not everyone is fit to shop. You’ll need to check customer temperatures at the door. If someone has a fever, they might be infected. Do you turn them away, or take a shady bribe and let them sneak in? The choice (and risk) is yours.
• Store Security: Shoplifting hits a bit harder when society has collapsed. Catch thieves trying to raid your register and use a spiked baseball bat to “restore order” and recover your cash.
• Defend the Colony Walls: When a massive threat approaches the colony, you’ll drop the scanner and pick up the heavy artillery. Hop onto the defence line and operate a minigun to tear through zombie-themed raids before they breach the walls.

The TechMash Verdict: PlayWay SA has a massive track record for publishing incredibly addictive simulators, and teaming up with Arafkan Games for a mashup of Supermarket Shriek meets Left 4 Dead looks like pure indie gold. It’s a brilliant twist on the tycoon genre that requires equal parts business savvy and trigger-finger reflexes.

Quarantine Market Simulator launches on PC via Steam on July 10. Will you run a clean, safe establishment, or let a few infected slip through for the right price? Wishlist it now and get ready to open for business!
