HELLMART is a premium hybrid of supermarket simulation and survival horror set in a remote Northern convenience store. Developed by GAZE IN GAMES, you play as a normal employee during the day, managing typical retail tasks. As nightfall, sinister forces awaken, supernatural entities begin masquerading as customers, and survival depends on split-second decisions about who to let inside.

Prepare for a nightmare shift

In HELLMART, the gameplay is divided into three cycles. You start with the day shift, tidying store management, serving customers, and maintaining the store. As dusk approaches, the tone shifts with evening prep. Monitor generators, check cameras, and stock emergency supplies. The horror starts with the night shift, where the horror unfolds. Your survival depends on choosing whom to admit.

Your nighttime interactions carry weight. Letting in the wrong customer can be fatal, and survival hinges on knowing who to trust—the decisions you make influence who survives and shape the story’s outcome. Expect multiple endings tied to your choices and performance. However, the story is weak, and the overall gameplay can be repetitive. This game is also in active development.

A chilling twist on normal jobs

HELLMART takes the ordinary retail simulator and twists it into a horror experience, where every night becomes a test of judgment and survival. Its shifting day-to-night structure keeps players on edge, blending routine tasks with suspenseful decisions. While the atmosphere and concept are memorable, the weak story and repetitive loop may dampen long-term engagement. Still, it’s a thrilling oddity worth a try for horror sim fans.
