Hello, aspiring cardboard tycoons!
Demo V3 of Grombo Card Shop Idle is now available!
This update does not expand the demo with twenty new systems and a variable-rate mortgage. Instead, we focused on making everything already there feel much clearer, smoother, prettier and more polished.
Although we may have also hidden a small surprise for the most obsessive collectors…
Have you completed the Grombodex? Are you sure?
Collecting every card in the regular set now lets you discover a new secret hidden inside the Grombodex.
We could tell you exactly what happens, but that would make it considerably less secret. Complete the collection and find out whether your life as a collector was truly over.
It probably wasn’t.
A much more Grombo interface
This version includes a huge number of UI and UX improvements throughout the entire demo.
We have revised menus, panels, buttons, information and several parts of the game to make managing the shop, opening packs and checking your collection clearer, more consistent and more pleasant.
It is still a questionably managed business. At least now it is easier to understand why everything is going wrong.
Some Grombos went back into surgery
We have also redesigned several Grombos and cards that did not quite match the final look of the game.
Don’t worry: they still look suspiciously drawn. They simply look suspiciously better drawn now.
Fewer bugs, stronger cardboard
Demo V3 also includes numerous bug fixes and smaller adjustments based on feedback from players of the previous versions.
Thank you to everyone who sent us feedback, shared videos or discovered increasingly creative ways to break our tiny card shop.
Play Demo V3 for free!
You can download and play the new version of the demo for free right now.
Whether this is your first visit or you already completed the collection, this is the best time to reopen the shop.
And if you enjoy what we are building, please add Grombo Card Shop Idle to your wishlist. It makes a huge difference as we prepare for the Early Access launch.
Thank you for playing and supporting Grombo!
The collection was complete.
Until it wasn’t.
