Taco Stand

Taco Stand is a psychological horror simulation game created by Wave Infinite and released as a demo version for various platforms including HTML5, Windows, macOS, and Linux. The demo has been available since early 2026 and gives players a short but tense experience set during Night 1 of a late-night taco-selling shift.

At first, the game feels calm and routine. You play as the person running a small taco stand after dark, focused on taking customer orders, grilling tortillas, adding sauce, and folding each taco just right. Getting every detail correct matters—customers have different personalities and levels of patience. Some are pleasant, while others are rushed or irritated, which adds pressure to each shift. The smooth rhythm of cooking and serving gives a realistic sense of managing late-night service work.

As the night goes on, the atmosphere begins to shift. The sounds grow distant, shadows seem to move, and the familiar routine starts to feel wrong. Small details—like strange noises or subtle visual changes—build a sense of unease that creeps up slowly. Players are left wondering whether what’s happening is just fatigue or something far more disturbing. The game’s sound design by Josh Bakaimis helps intensify this psychological edge, drawing players further into the unnerving environment.

Taco Stand is simple to control—players move with WASD keys, look around with the mouse, and use “E” to interact with objects. These straightforward mechanics keep the focus on observation and atmosphere rather than difficulty.

The current demo lasts about five to ten minutes and includes only the first night, but it has already earned positive feedback for its immersive tone and realistic cooking system. Many players have praised how smoothly the game transitions from a relaxed job simulator into something deeply unsettling.

Those who want to experience Taco Stand can play it free and instantly on kbhgames.com, right in their web browser, with no installation required. It’s an accessible way to sample Wave Infinite’s skillful blend of ordinary work and creeping horror.

While short, the demo lays the groundwork for a full release that promises to balance everyday realism with psychological tension—reminding players that even the most normal nights can take a dark and unexpected turn. Add game to Steam Wishlist.
