New game Book Bound invites players to manage a cozy bookstore in simulation demo

A new game called Book Bound combines bookshops and cozy gaming. Players manage a small bookstore, stocking shelves and serving customers. The demo is available now, allowing players to experience the game's mechanics and customer interactions. Unlike other similar games, Book Bound features fictional book titles. Players can earn bonuses for organizing books by genre. The game focuses on decorating the shop and will include five genres at launch. Book Bound is set for a full release in early 2025 and will participate in Steam Next Fest in late February. The developer plans to add more features and updates after launch.
