## What is Art Shop Supply Tycoon?

You inherit a dusty little stationery shop. Sell pencils, reinvest everything, and slowly build it into the grandest fine-art store in town.

Art Shop Supply Tycoon is a cozy idle tycoon set in a fully 3D isometric shop that you grow piece by piece. Every purchase is physical: open an aisle and its display appears, fills with real products, and customers start walking in to buy.

WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Open 10 unique aisles, from graphite pencils to precious Kolinsky sable brushes
- Watch animated customers browse, queue, pay, and leave with their parcels
- Hire clerks — each with their own specialty — add registers, and expand through 5 shop sizes
- Complete the 24-color chart — each color lights up the tube wall in your shop
- Negotiate with 6 quirky suppliers in a quick bluffing mini-game
- Take on dozens of lifelong Challenges for hefty rewards
- Catch limited-time events and seasonal rushes — back-to-school, holidays, winter sales, summer festival
- Collect 40 hidden finds left behind by customers
- Pet the shop cat

KEEP GROWING
- Idle income even while you're away (offline earnings)
- Prestige "Moving Out": restart bigger and spend Renown stars in the Renown Shop on permanent perks
- A real day/night cycle following your phone's clock

FAIR AND COZY
- No forced ads, ever
- One optional purchase (the Guild Card) — everything is playable for free
- Your data stays on your device
- Play in English or French — switch anytime
- iPhone and iPad

Handmade with love. Now go — the artists are waiting (and they always buy too much).

## Version history (last 4 releases)

### 1.2 — 2026-07-02

Your shop has never felt this alive!

- Smarter customers: they navigate the aisles around displays, registers and queues, come in through the door and head straight to their aisle and then to checkout — no more silly detours or walking through counters
- Flawless lines: everyone takes their spot on arrival (no more gaps in line), shuffles up facing the register, and pays right at the counter
- Livelier staff: clerks keep busy at their aisle, so you can spot them at a glance
- Better framing: the whole shop stays on screen even at max size, and pinch now zooms all the way out
- Smooth expansions: customers gracefully slip away instead of vanishing abruptly

Under the hood: improved stability (several rare crashes fixed) and a safety net that guarantees no customer ever gets stuck, even on very long sessions.

Thanks for playing — happy selling!

### 1.1.1 — 2026-06-28

- Renown Shop: spend your prestige stars on permanent perks (income, offline cap, events, rewards…)
- Clerks with personality: every clerk now has a unique specialty
- Challenges: dozens of lifelong milestones to complete for big bonuses
- Living seasons: special events for back-to-school, holidays, winter sales, summer festival… plus more events overall
- Buy ×10 / MAX to upgrade your aisles in a tap
- Richer daily streak (day 7/14/30 milestones) + reminders so you never lose it
- Countdown on event offers and a Mystery Critic badge

- Roomier, better-arranged shops with a clear checkout lane: no more crowding inside a display

Fixes:

- "While you were away" earnings no longer loop endlessly

- Accurate on-screen amounts, more robust saves, and better English formatting
