The concept is great and enjoyable except for the constant issues I accept this is a early access game and my recommendation is to wait a while for more of the bugs to be fixed before playing but if you can live with these bugs then I do recommend giving it a play, it has a lot of potential. I would love to see a auto save feature implemented so when one of these bugs do occur then you wont lose all your progress. Bugs Include; Game randomly crashing. Constantly freezing or getting stuck on a screen or with an item in hand that I cant remove then having to close the game to fix it and losing all my progress. Items randomly disappearing after I set them down. Staff members getting stuck.

About This Game
Everything about GeckoShop:
GeckoShop is a Sandbox Shop Simulator + Creature Collector, where you manage your own shop, selling all the different varieties of geckos!
"Your dream of having your own Petshop finally comes true. Get cozy and have a fun time collecting and selling lizards, or grind hard and be the next millionare on this island!"
You'll have to:
Deal with customers, set your own Prices.
Keep the store clean and working, or get Employees to do it for you!
Explore the small open-world city, with People to interact with, Quests and other things at every corner.
Find Shells and ancient Artifacts on the beach to fill the museum, to unlock even more content as you go.
Accept Quests from various NPCs on the island.
Catch Thieves trying to steal from your shop.
Decorate and upgrade your store, however you want.
Collect a big variety of different types and rarities of Lizards.
You can sell your pets, or turn your Shop into a zoo!
There are hundreds of geckos for you to unlock, in 4 rarities. Through opening chests, mutating geckos in the Lab, Vending machines, and through sidequests.
Buy and open different Boxes, to get random Geckos from that set, and if you're lucky enough you might even find a Super rare gecko.
Upgrade, Decorate and Paint your Shop, however you feel like.
Hire Employees to assist you to sell pets and products, clean trash from your store, and catch thieves before they can steal anything.
Keep your shop small or upgrade it to the maximum, make a giant warehouse full of rare items and animals.
Collect Trophies to display in the Backroom of your Shop, to keep track of your Progress.
Explore the City, Mutate Geckos, Eat burgers, Repeat.
The City is full of Surprises! Check out the Lab, where "Zippy Joe" made a machine to mutate 5 geckos into another one, and with some luck you might even get a Lab-exclusive gecko (very rare, they sparke in rainbow colors!)
Go to the Wrenchshop, and talk with "Bolt" about upgrading your shop, or go to the Paintshop and let "Doodle" paint your whole Shop.
Get yourself a Companion from the Petshop, or race against other geckos!
And dont forget to get a Burger from the restaurant next to the Beach ;)
Sidequests everywhere!
You might want to go treasure hunting, or collect shells and ancient artifacts to keep the museum growing.
Or maybe you want to catch fishes all day long and forget about your customers!
Sell your fishes to "Skipper", but don't worry, you'll see in your Collection which fishes you've already catched, and which ones are missing.

I want to love this game so badly, because I'm a reptile lover, and I love the fun loot box style games that are simple like this, but it's an absolute cooking pot of glitches. - I can't speak to anyone or the chat box gets stuck on the screen and I get locked in without being able to click the responses, or close it. This includes accidentally clicking on someone whilst im doing things. - Constant issues that if I buy say soil, and auto-pallet it, use it all, then try to buy something else, I get continuous 'wrong type' error messages despite the pallet being empty, meaning I need to either restart my game every time I was to restock something different, or keep gathering boxes from outside because I cant pallet them. - If i pick up the bit of rubbish my cleaner was going for, he glitches out and T-poses down the street, never to return until I restart the game. - My security guard is just walking into the front window. - I was on the beach gathering shells at one point, then su...

The game have potential, but is FULL of bugs. Love the design of the game, but at the time it's not playable (10/08/2025). Will come back when they have fixed a lot of the issues :)
game is completely unplayable, i lost about 5 hours of progress in total because the game just doesn't save progress, screw this game ive had enough i did have a review saying its a good game with some flaws but seriously dont bother i paid £13 when it came out and after leaving it for a few months decided to play again and really got back into it until that is all the new bugs that have popped up since the new updates which i could look past, but my save file just vanishing is ridiculous i have requested a refund hopefully i can get it i dont care how many hours ive played this is completely ridiculous. what a waste of time

I spent $14.17 that is more about bugs then the geckos. Every time I buy the gecko box's the damn geckos disappear. I spent $500 on box's and the box's didn't even show up. I'm really pissed off about this. I've been watching ImCade and Blitz play this and it looked really fun. For now, don't waste your money.
The multiplayer update has been out for 5 days, constant bugs and issues. Please push for a fix.
okay, so, i love this game, it's adorable, but i keep encountering a bug where i order things and they don't arrive at all, not unless i exit the game the load back into it, my friend and i attempted to play multiplayer as well, i can't see the prices my friend sets for the Gecko's and if i try to enter the menu where you set the price on the gecko's, i get locked into the menu even if i've exited it, i can see my characters head moving from side to side but i have to shut the game down entirely because i can't even open other menu's in that locked state, can't even open the main menu where you exit the game so i have to alt + tab and close it that way, like i said thought, i'm enjoying playing it apart from those experiences
