Why do certain “cute games” exist? Because game devs know that sometimes people just want to turn their minds off and play something that will make them smile without having to think too hard. There’s a whole market out for these kinds of games, and Tiny Capsule Collector is the latest addition to it. Playing Mantis built the game to be a “desktop companion,” one where you’ll run a store, try to bring customers to it, and then slowly collect capsules for your enjoyment and others’. The game is out now on Steam, and you can learn more about it below:

“Tiny Capsule Collector is a relaxing idle game, an ambient desktop companion where you run your own tiny Gachapon shop at the bottom of your screen. Designed for low-focus play, it quietly lives alongside your day – while you work, study, or simply unwind.

Your shop attracts a steady flow of cute animal visitors, each bringing life and charm to your world creating a relaxing ambient work environment. Every visit adds to your collection. Fill your collector’s journal and enjoy your favorite finds directly on your screen. Create your own relaxing space with vending machines, decorations, and layouts that reflect your style.”

See? Nothing wrong with a simple title to relax with, and the team even laid out what they feel the perfect person for their game is. Specifically, if…

• You enjoy relaxing idle games that don’t require constant attention
