About the Game
inKONBINI: One Store. Many Stories is a cozy, narrative-driven slice-of-life game with light simulation elements, centered on human connection and everyday moments.
Play as Makoto Hayakawa, a college student spending her summer behind the counter of a small-town convenience store, in a colorful world inspired by early 1990s Japan.
Your days are shaped by simple, tactile actions. You stock shelves, tidy displays, and prepare the store for customers, not to optimize numbers, but to settle into a comforting rhythm. Between tasks, you explore the store and its surroundings, notice tiny details, and connect with regulars whose lives gently intertwine with yours.
Through branching conversations and meaningful choices, your interactions shape relationships and reveal intimate stories of a close-knit neighborhood.
Key Features
A Cozy, Routine-Driven Store Experience
Engage in light storekeeping activities like stocking items, organizing shelves, and ordering goods. These moments create a calming flow that supports exploration and storytelling rather than complex management.
Narrative Focused Interactions
Experience branching dialogue and meaningful choices as you learn about the lives, routines, and secrets of your customers.
Nostalgic Early 1990s Atmosphere
Immerse yourself in a Japan-inspired setting with soft visuals, warm lighting, and lovingly crafted details that evoke comfort and familiarity.
Toy Capsule Surprises
Collect and discover charming capsule toys from the store’s gachapon machine. Each capsule holds a small surprise, adding moments of delight and curiosity to your daily routine and inviting you to uncover every little treasure inside.
Soothing ASMR Inspired Soundscape
Enjoy a peaceful ASMR-like soundscape filled with subtle everyday sounds that enhance relaxation and presence.

Hello everyone!
We've been watching your streams, reading through bug reports, and following the discussions across all our channels. These insights help us spot issues, prioritize improvements, and make inKONBINI even better.
Based on your feedback, we've added an option to reset progress on the current shift and Korean language support. We've also improved how Makoto navigates around obstacles, making movement through the store smoother and more reliable.
As always, we've included a number of bug fixes and general improvements as well. These updates are available on Steam right now and will be coming to consoles very soon. Check out the full patch notes below!
Change Log
New Features
Added “Reset Shift” feature
Players can now reset their current progress on each night back to the beginning of the shift. “Reset Shift” option will appear in the pause menu only if the shift was started after the patch update
Gameplay & Mechanics
Improved Collision & Pathfinding
- Players could occasionally get stuck in narrow passages, most notably between the Main Area and Storage Area as well as in several other spots, especially while carrying boxes
- Makoto will now automatically navigate around nearby obstacles more smoothly, reducing the chance of getting stuck and making movement feel more natural
Story Events
Fixed a bug on the third shift where a taxi could appear while Naomi and Makoto were commenting that there was no taxi in sight
Interactions & Systems
Fixed an issue where improper text would be written down in Makoto's Notepad
Localization
Added full Korean language support
Fixed misspels and missing lines in Japanese, English, German, and Russian
Fixed Spanish localization for conversation with Satoshi outside the store on the 5th shift
Console-specific
Added "Gameplay Center Dot Reticle" feature to consoles - turning it on in Accessibility settings makes a small dot appear at the center of the screen that would help players better navigate and interact with objects
Thank you for your support and suggestions!

Change Log
New Features
Added an ability to WALK FASTER. To turn this on, please open Settings. In "GENERAL" under Accessibility switch "Sprint Button" to "On" and use a corresponding button during gameplay
Gameplay & Mechanics
Improved Boxes stacking
- now if you take the box with Toy Capsules or the box with Marketing Materials while holding a box with products in your hands, the products will not move to the stack of boxes in the Storage Room (since many players weren't able to find the products in the stack of boxes) - the product box will instead be placed in the nearest spot on the floor in the Main Area so that it's easy to find
- If you picked up Toy Capsule/Marketing Materials box while holding an empty box, it'll still go to the stack of empty boxes in the Storage Room
Story Events
Fixed a critical bug where the order in which customers/delivery arrive would mix up if player pressed "I" button on a keyboard
Fixed an issue with Mystery Man on the sixth shift where the dialogue near Freezer wouldn't start properly resulting in a critical bug
Fixed a bug where Satoshi could arrive when the journalist asks to order taxi
Fixed an issue where event with recommending sale items to Mystery Man on the second shift was triggering after the payment is already completed
Fixed a bug causing Satoshi to remain in the store after checkout on 2nd and 3rd shift
Fixed a progression bug caused by Satoshi entering while selecting an extra bag for the Mystery Man on the 5th shift
In a conversation with Delivery Service on the third shift regarding ordering Gonseung Coffee text now says "order 1 box", because Makoto can't order 2 boxes that night. Text was changed for all languages
Interactions & Systems
Improved object targeting responsiveness when interacting with the box of Capsule Toys
Fixed an issue where you could interact with Sink from behind the counter
Improved object targeting when interacting with the Vase on the sixth shift
Fixed an issue where controls would stop working if player started checking customer out and opening text log at the same time
Fixed an issue where players couldn't close Notepad after opening it during checkout cutscene before scanning products
Fixed an issue where players weren't able to interact with Chief on the 5th shift
Cutscenes & Camera
Fixed an issue for slower Text Speed options where lines from some cutscenes would cut off before they were even typed, not allowing players to read the text properly
UI / UX
Fixed a bug where "Decrease/Increase" input would appear in Settings after changing Controller Style
Added Accessibility options in "Settings"
Fixed a bug where dynamic panel would constantly move after exiting interactions
Achievements
Fixed a bug that caused achievement names to be displayed incorrectly (it showed achievement that you unlocked first during that play session)
Localization
Fixed misspels in English and Russian
Visual Fixes
Fixed an issue where Makoto could clip into one of the boxes in the Storage Area on the last night shift
Audio
Fixed an issue where some SFX effects (like Satoshi talking about great tea martial artists on the 2nd shift) were not linked to SFX slider which resulted in louder sounds than intended
Miscellaneous
Added additional names to Credits section
Xbox-speficic bugs
Fixed an issue with accessing DLC on Xbox
Added localized Achievement names for Xbox

Dear Players,
Today, the doors of inKONBINI are finally open.
To celebrate the launch, the game will be available with a 10% launch discount during the first two weeks on Steam. If you'd like to support the team even further, you can also get the completely optional Yojoki Masters Supporter Pack DLC, the inKONBINI Artbook, and the full Original Game Soundtrack which will be available soon.
What started as a small idea - a quiet convenience store filled with ordinary people, late-night conversations, and tiny everyday moments - has now become something we can finally share with all of you.
In a world that moves faster every day, we wanted to create a place where you could slow down for a little while. A place where small choices matter. Where brief encounters can quietly change someone’s life. Where even the smallest moments can stay with you long after they’re gone.
[img src="{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44951606/30ef600dafba63019d31a90a65c45562b2831e89.png"]
Over the past years, our team poured an unbelievable amount of care into this tiny store. Every shelf, every customer, every conversation, every strange little detail was handcrafted with love. And now, after this long journey, you can finally step inside.
We honestly can’t wait for you to meet Makoto, the regular customers, and discover the stories hidden between the aisles. There’s a Japanese phrase we often thought about while making this game: Ichigo Ichie (一期一会) — “one time, one meeting.” The idea that every encounter is unique and can never happen in exactly the same way again.
This release feels a little like that for us. Thank you for being here with us today. And thank you for giving our small konbini a place in your life.
See you on the night shift.
