Popular mysterious tycoon games
Running a small business gets strange in these popular mysterious tycoon games, where serving customers and keeping the till going comes with unanswered questions. In The Last Gas Station you tidy a woodland fuel stop while looking into its missing keeper, Photomaly has you handling portraits and prints as the images turn wrong, and The Plant Shop puts you behind the counter after dark potting seedlings for odd visitors while an old town curse stirs.
