Welcome to the trophy guide for Tiny Bookshop. This can also be considered a walkthrough and may be used for PlayStation 4, 5, Xbox One, Series X and Steam. Achievements for Steam and Xbox are in almost all cases the same as the PlayStation 4/5 Trophies. A roadmap is provided in the stages below.

Follow us on Bluesky for the latest news and giveaways. Feel free to join our Discord server if you have questions!


Stage 1 – Complete your first year



Welcome to the trophy guide for Tiny Bookshop, a heartwarming bookstore simulator game. Developed by Neoludic Games and published by Skystone Games. The main aim is to get through the first year, completing memories and stamps, see the tables below for specific tasks to complete. Please note that some stamps, especially those associated with the Far Beach and University, are locked in some seasons. Pay attention and use logic that Universities are closed during the summer, and beaches have fewer people in the winter. As nothing is missable, you can enjoy this game at your own pace. Please note that a lot of the trophies for example selling 90 books in a day or the multiple trophies for selling 40 books of a type in a day, may seem impossible at first, but near the end of the first year, with a lot of items acquired and extra shelves, these trophies will be fairly easy. Equip any items that help increase the chance of selling the type of books you want to sell, and any items that increase the number of customers and customer suggestions.

Stage 2 – Clean Up- year 2

Clean up any of the memories or stamps that were locked to a specific season and missed during year 1. Now with more bookshelves, a lot of items that help boost footfall, recommendations, and money to purchase a large supply of books, any remaining trophies not earned in year 1 should come easily if equipping the right items for the type of book needed to be sold.
