A surprise indie hit, "Retro Rewind - Video Store Simulator" has become one of the best releases on Steam this March. Developed by a two-person team in Canada, the management sim has already sold over 100,000 copies, making it one of the platform's most successful recent indie launches. Released on March 17, the game taps into strong nostalgia for the VHS era, letting players manage a classic video rental store inspired by the golden age of Blockbuster.
