This game is probably my favorite mobile game I’ve ever played. Everything about it is so fun and it feels so realistic most of the time and the best part is they actually listen to their consumers!!! A few weeks ago I had been scrolling through the reviews to see if anyone else had been encountering an issue that I had and I read some suggestions that people were commenting for better gameplay. A few days later I noticed that some of the things people mentioned were in the new update! They even have a discord you can join to get some behind the scenes stuff and get kind of more personal with the players. I purchased the option to remove ads because it was offered to me for only $5 and it was honestly the best $5 I’ve ever spent. Without the ads the gameplay is so smooth and effortless and I don’t even mind having to watch ads for deliveries because I can just put something on in the background and watch that while I binge the ads. The only thing I find tedious is it moves my storage product around after closing the app or not playing for a certain period but it’s not too bad because I haven’t gotten all the licenses yet. But it might get a little harder soon because my store is getting kinda big 😅. Great game though! I really hope it keeps growing and adding more licenses and features.

This game had potential to be a ton of fun. It misses the mark with a few things. I’m not even gonna say anything about the ads that pop up, that’s to be expected. You don’t want ads? You gotta pay money. If these things get taken into account, I will bump up the rating to a full five stars. This one is mainly for people starting up their store. You start with just two shelves. One specifically for fruits, and one for the cereal. You start with $40, fine. Don’t make the customers flood in at the start. Make only a couple only be able to be in the store at any given time. You fully stock those two shelves and the products are gone in just a couple of minutes. When you add on the fact that when you place an order to restock the shelves, you gotta wait up to 2 minutes, for the box to even show up, so on day 1 you are constantly closing and opening the store so you can get your shelves restocked. My second place of complaint is that there are no stickers on the shelves when you place a product. Especially when you get a really good store going, it could be VERY difficult to remember what is supposed to go where, cause when that product is gone, there’s nothing to indicate what was there. Honestly, if those things got fixed (Starting off with a few customers, not having to wait so long for a product to arrive, and having a sticker remain when the product is out) I would pay to remove ads, and give this a 5 star rating.

The game is great, it’s simple but challenging, in working to grow and expand your store you have to actually think about your income and expenses and all those little details. I think the graphics and gameplay are high quality plus the in game challenges and prizes feel like the work always pays off in some way. It is pretty time consuming but you could also do it while watching tv so if you want something going on with your hands and in the background this game is perfect for it; plus ordering groceries can take from 30 seconds to 15 minutes depending on what you’ve ordered. If you’re a person who can’t play games all day, this game gets so much faster when you’re not on it 24/7.My only qualm is when you partake in the month long challenges (lunar year; last month), you get prizes but sometimes they’re useless and you can’t throw them away, place them in storage, or sell them, which can cause some crowdedness. You do have to pay ($5 I think) to remove ads and I did that the second I realized the game was worth it, and there are some things you have to pay for to get more of (like the lighting strikes to speed up ordering time) but I feel like they’re pretty reasonable and affordable considering some other games are asking for $15-30 for the alike things.

I will say I haven’t been able to stop playing this game since I downloaded it, but I do have some opinions. There should be ways to earn the energy bolts(not sure what they’re actually called) other than ads or spending money. Having a cashier is helpful, but having to spend on them adds up. If I have to wait on deliveries, which is also frustrating, I can be getting more of those while I wait at least. There should also be someone to hire to stock shelves or the storage space, if there’s an item tag they can put them where they go. I always buy product, realistically speaking you have to buy a good bit at a time so you don’t have to keep waiting on deliveries, so it gets tedious having to wait for items AND stock one by one. All furniture and expansions need to be half the price it is. The licenses are already pricy, when you buy a food license you most likely need furniture with it. I still only have one storage shelf, I stack my boxes neatly on the floor but every time I come back to the game they’re everywhere. Either knocked down in the storage room, on top the shelf, or even up the street! I also shouldn’t have to use the energy bolts to get boxes thrown out, it needs to be free. PLEASE add an inventory feature on the computer, we should be able to see how much of any item we have without having to count boxes.
