From the store: Probably Stolen is a cyberpunk shopkeeping simulator set in a dystopian space station. Craft, trade, and smuggle goods of questionable origin, navigate faction loyalties, and decide how far you’re willing to go to stay afloat. Earn enough to buy out your shop before rising rent forces your hand.


This one starts out simple, but gets incredibly deep. My recommendation is to go in blind and not follow any guides. It is absolutely blowing up on Steam for an indie game.

I played the first hour or so of this and enjoyed it, but I haven't played it since because I've got a bunch of other stuff I want to get through first.

Would you recommend starting over with a new character after the tutorial or continuing on with the session that they sort of hand-held me through?

I recommend going through that session because the game gets deep and you need the experience. The handholding is sort of necessary because if you start over with no tutorial you are missing a ton of the documents and signage that help you get rolling.

The word of mouth is that this is a worthy spiritual successor to Papers, Please. Are we in this realm? This looks interesting but while Papers, Please grew increasingly complex it remained a pretty streamlined experience. Looking at screenshots of Probably Stolen, it looks super overwhelming like a Satisfactory or an Oxygen Not Included (which are great games, but not for me!).
