Overview

Stack & Brew is a fantasy shop management game from developer BODOS, published by Rock Paper Publisher and Gamersky Games. It launched into Early Access on November 4, 2026, and is available on Steam with full controller support and adjustable text size.

The game casts you as the keeper of the kingdom's most important potion shop, a role thrust upon you because King Ging's obsession with ginseng has spiraled out of control. Your job is to keep the business thriving while managing every aspect of its day-to-day operations.

Highlights

  • Grow and brew: Cultivate magical ingredients, then use them to prepare potions and magical items for your customers.
  • Reputation management: Fulfill orders carefully and keep your Reputation from dropping too low, or risk losing your shop's standing.
  • Boss encounters: Powerful bosses will arrive with massive orders that test your production planning and resource management skills.

Who It's For

If you enjoy management sims with a cozy fantasy twist, Stack & Brew should be on your radar. The game blends shopkeeping with light strategy, as you balance ingredient growth, potion crafting, and customer satisfaction.

It's ideal for players who like incremental progression and a medieval economy setting, and the Early Access status means you can watch the game evolve over time. The full controller support also makes it a comfortable pick for couch play.
