Fox Curio’s Floating Bookshop
On this River, you are a bookseller, paddling your floating bookshop up and downstream to various towns along the Riverbank. How did you come across the bookshop? Was it gifted to you or did you happen to chance upon it?
Your days are filled with customers, leaks and the irritating nook beetles that bury into the pages of your books. Make friends with regular customers to the bookshop, experience the River as she moves through the different seasons, visit and explore various towns, go fishing in the River's rich waters. Throughout the year, the seasons change and holidays give the chance for you to join in celebrations and festivities with the animalfolk.
Floating Bookshop is set in a fully formed world with its own unique seasons, holidays and customs. It is a place to escape to; where the inhabitants of the world live in rhythm with nature and things are simpler. This game was primarily inspired by The Diary of a Bookseller by Shaun Blythell which documents the hilarious day-to-day of running a secondhand bookshop in Scotland, and Wanderhome by Jay Dragon.
