About This Game

A night job. A few rules. A reason to look over your shoulder.

Asha has finished her degree, the bills are waiting, and work is hard to find. A night shift at Sharma Ji's kirana store sounds like a way forward. Learn the counter, serve the neighbourhood, and keep the shop running until morning.

Sharma Ji's Shop is a single-player, first-person psychological horror game set in an Indian neighbourhood, where familiar work gives way to the feeling that someone is watching.

Keep the shop running

Find the groceries your customers ask for, carry items to the counter, and settle their bills with cash or UPI. Learn the shelves and listen to the people who stop by. Some are in a hurry. Some have time to talk. A returning customer may remember what you asked earlier.

Pay attention between customers

A stranger lingers outside. A light flickers near the office. An ordinary message on your phone gives you another reason to look up from the counter. Follow the small disturbances, decide when to investigate, and work out how much you want to know.

The shop's sounds and music shift with the night, leaving room for quiet conversations before the tension rises again.

An Indian night, seen up close

Start in Asha's apartment, read the messages you choose to open, and ride your scooter to work along the rain-soaked road. At the shop, hanging snack packets, rupee notes, plastic chairs and the hum of everyday appliances make the setting feel familiar, even when the night does not.
