A Cozy Occult Shop Sim With Mystery (And Heart)
The Totemist Preview




Craft uncanny totems. Aid troubled townsfolk. Uncover the darkness below. The Totemist is a narrative-driven occult shop sim set in a quietly strange town, where you craft charms inspired by real witchcraft, aid troubled townspeople, and uncover the ancient force festering beneath them.
Run an occult shop where complex crafting systems meet supernatural mystery. Gather materials, perform cleansing rituals, craft totems, and imbue them with power in this narrative-driven experience.

You run a small occult shop in a town that feels just a little off. Customers come to you with the quiet weight of everyday life, and you help them carry it a little easier.
Gather materials from the world around you. Cleanse and prepare them with rituals drawn from real modern witchcraft.
Craft totems and talismans, then imbue them with intention to give them something extra. Unique effects, deeper power, a little more of yourself in every piece you sell.
Your crow keeps you company in the workshop. Your frog minds the storefront. And the town slowly reveals itself through a cast of characters whose lives are messier, warmer, and stranger than they first appear.
Something is happening here. You can feel it in the energy. And you might be the only one who can see it coming.
