In 1990s rural Central Anatolia, you take over your father’s isolated toast shop while he is away. You work the late shifts in its small living area, walk-in refrigerator, and service counter.
Open the shop, prepare toast to customer orders, keep the premises clean, and earn money. Track supplies and ingredient condition, then use your earnings to order stock for the next day.
As the shifts unfold, customers, radio and television broadcasts, and events around the shop reveal an unsettling mystery. The story includes choices and multiple endings.
Players often praise the shop’s isolated 1990s Anatolian atmosphere, with customer conversations and especially the television and radio details helping make the setting memorable. Some enjoy the toast-making and stock-management routine, while others appreciate the gradual, unsettling horror. Reviews differ on how effective the scares and story payoffs are, and several wish the game offered more content or stronger endings.

In Tostchu, you assume the role of a temporary manager of a toast buffet and you have to manage this buffet during a series of late evenings when the toast shop receives the most customers. You are confined to the buffet throughout the game, which consists of a small living area, a walk-in refrigerator, and a service area. Every day open the shop's shutter and prepare toasts for the customers, earn money, close the shutter, and order new ingredients for the next day with your hard-earned money. It is as simple as that!
During the game, you may witness some mysterious happenings surrounding the buffet and its local, through the conversations with the customers, through your humble radio and television, or with your own eyes.
