Yesterday’s Wholesome Snack showcase by Wholesome Games saw the next announcement of Stuttgart cosy studio Spellgarden Games: Thrifty Business is a successor to their hit game Sticky Business and the next title for the studio after Ritual of Raven. The announcement trailer shows a combination of shop management gameplay, decoration like in Animal Crossing and social interaction with the customers.

Thrifty Business was not the only German cosy game announced at the showcase Tiny Roar from Hamburg have also presented their survival adventure game Verdant set in post-apocalyptic Germany.
