You are an Assistant Demon selling secretly cursed items to humans in Wittenberg, Germany.

"It looks gorgeous, the theming is super fun..."

"...another banger of a game ... packed full of theme"

"The polish on this is incredible, and I am seriously impressed with how well the theme and mechanisms are integrated..."

Inspired by Needful Things by Stephen King and The Screwtape Letters by C.S. Lewis, Caveat Emptor is a solo game from Exeunt Press, creator of the ENNIE-nominated Exclusion Zone Botanist.

Greet new customers as they enter. Offer them an item from your inventory that seems too good to be true. Secretly twist it with a curse, and close the deal. Avoid suspicion that you are a demon. Maximize sales before your Manager returns. Avoid annihilation.
