Overview
Shift Happens plunges players into the unglamorous reality of a 9-to-5 retail job. Developed and published by JajaCodes, this first-person simulation RPG casts you as a struggling college student who lands a gig at Sell-By Grocers. Your mission? To keep the store running, no matter what's on the shelves, under the watchful, and likely unimpressed, eye of your manager, Biff. It's a stark, yet potentially humorous, look at the daily grind.
