Retro Rewind Video Store Simulator is an economic strategy game in which the main goal is to manage a rental store. Management requires close supervision of staff, as employees periodically take sick leave. Profitability depends on fines: late returns cost $2, and physical damage to a tape costs $20. Rare holographic editions are purchased from a shady backstreet dealer. Inventory orders are processed through an old electronic terminal, and cash only is accepted at the checkout. These nuances accurately convey the distinctive atmosphere of the 1990s. A collection of 1,000 films and a fruit snow machine ensure a steady flow of customers. Daily routine necessarily includes the manual rewinding of returned tapes.
