Incredible
Tue Nov 12 2024 CollinGMillerThis 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.
Potential
Fri Oct 11 2024 BlaizkThis 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.
Fun, logical, and addictive
Sat Feb 22 2025 In-linedThe 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.
Addictive but room for improvement
Mon Aug 04 2025 kdjxdkI 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.
This game is awesome!!
Wed Sep 11 2024 Allie :DDI hate being catfished by mobile game ads, we’ve all had it happen before. you get shown a segment or what you would assume is a mini game on an ad, you very obviously assume they’re accurately representing what the game play is like but unsurprisingly, a lot of games will advertise better looking versions or fake mini games. I really love simulator games and i’ve tried so many different super market and retail ones. I love the cashiering part but any other game i’ve found has either catfished me in the ad and then I download it and its a completely different game or I found it on the app store hoping it would be a good game and it was in fact not. I saw an ad for this and was like ok i’ll give it a go, and it was a shocking experience. for the first time in forever, the part that I was shown in a game ad was in fact in the game ON TOP of other segments of the game. I like the graphics a lot and how the gameplay feels. it’s really fun and i honestly can’t stop playing. it was especially a breath of fresh air that the gameplay of the checking out i was shown was a one for one of the game and not some better animated segment for an ad then the game having cheaper graphics. thank you for fulfilling my need for a GOOD supermarket/retail simulation game. there was a gap in an oversaturated market and you guys filled it.
Room for improvement
Thu Jan 16 2025 Khalea09Instantly got addicted to this game, it really is great and has so much potential for future updates. Like many others have said, the ads are absolutely ridiculous. I suffered thru so many to see if I’d like the game and since I loved it I caved and got the season pass with ads for $5. But they should really adjust it because the ads every 20 seconds can really deter people from playing a great game. Also a big thing that needs to be addressed is the energy. You have to watch an ad or pay for energy and every game puts in ways for you to earn energy or it least regenerates every however many minutes. FORCING people to pay for it or not making a way for it to build back up outside of the season pass is insane. I’d love a stocker to be added to at least bring stuff from the back storage if the item is on a shelf in the front. Having a cashier is a huge help but a stocker is needed so players can focus on loading up storage room from the delivery area and ordering inventory. Would also be nice if we could color customize our shelves and coolers etc like we can with the walls and floors. Overall a great game with tons of potential to grow into an even better experience.
The new update is horrible!
Sun Aug 17 2025 GodsNewCreationSo I have been playing this game for a while now and I have to say that I enjoyed it a lot more before this new update. The update only allows you to choose one cashier and I have had to fire them each time because of how slow they are checking out the customers. Not only that, but whatever the purpose is for the stocker has me completely baffled. I paid for this person to help and the only thing he did was stand OUTSIDE of the store. Literally did not do a thing. Yes, they increased the amount of products that you can have in your storage area, but it takes almost an hour to restock the store. If they would allow someone to actually restock that would be amazing and I may be tempted not to delete the game. The final icing on the cake is now the developers have decided to throw trash all over the store while customers are shopping and you have to pick all of that up, not to mention having to mop up all the spills that they decided to throw in just to add salt to the wound. I’m so disheartened by this update because my main goal was to finish building out my store and completely stock my shelves. Just a sad turn of events. I don’t know how the developers thought this was going to appeal to their patrons. My only word for this is sadistic. Seriously about to delete what was almost a great game concept. Huge miss on this one guys.
It has potential
Thu Jan 09 2025 Ajones54It’s a fun game to play to pass the time but I feel more can be added on. For starters, when your store grows, it becomes extremely tedious to have to stock and backstock everything yourself. Cant there be an extra employee for that, with a dolly to grab multiple boxes at once? I also feel there should be more challenge and daily goals. Each day is a 12 hour shift that lasts maybe 5-7 minutes in real time, it goes by too quickly. I’d like to see customers getting upset and potentially leaving due to long lines. Id like to have more than one register open and hire more than just one cashier at a time. Also, can we hire once a week instead of once a day? I see potential in this game for it to be better. I’m sure there’s other suggestions in mind but this is it for now. Edit to add on: There needs to be either an undo button when accidentally throwing away products, or preventing it from being thrown away if the box isn’t empty. I also would like to see sales happening off the app and not just on the app, and not pausing when ads play.
Also, allow us to rotate storage items on the rack. A lot more can fit than what the game allows. Boxes shouldn’t be placed horizontally unless theyre too long. Some boxes only allow 3 to fit per storage shelf when 4+ can easily fit if placed vertically.
Stagnant, No Incentives, Not Motivating to Play
Sun Nov 24 2024 Dobby the Free ElfI had to wait 12 minutes just for one box of peanut butter to come to my store and everything else in the store sold out before it even got there. The long wait is ridiculous, especially once you have a decent amount of product in the store, and I spend most of the game just watching ads to try to get product in quicker. This could be a really fun game if I didn’t spend my whole time playing it just waiting down a clock. In addition, I’ve sat through a minute of adds just for the add not to let me close it, so I had to close out the game and it doesn’t even grant me the reward, despite watching the adds. Furthermore, since we have to wait so long to get product in, I think it is pretty lame that we don’t get free energy when we level up. If we didn’t have to wait so long to progress in the game I would understand why we don’t get rewarded energy, however in order to get product quick we have to watch an add or spend energy, but in order to get energy we have to watch adds. The main reason I want energy is so I don’t have to watch so many adds to play the game. Due to the complaints I have made above, I have found no incentive to continue progressing in the game. Truly, this game could be so much fun if players didn’t have to wait so long for deliveries or even if they gave us small rewards to keep the game moving.
IT DOESN’T SAVE MY PROGRESS!!!
Wed Nov 13 2024 melbabyxoI really liked this game at first despite all of the ads, I even got to level 15 or 16? Anyways. Yesterday I opened the game and noticed that some of the stuff I had purchased previously, were just GONE! I thought maybe it was user error and that maybe there was an option to save the game before you log off but I looked everywhere and couldn’t find an option. I brushed it off and just assumed it was a one time glitch. Well to my surprise, I got on again today and MORE OF MY PROGRESS WASN’T SAVED!!! And this time I had spent real money, I bought the starter pack that comes with 100 energy and with that energy I bought the cashier license and the storage license. And now it’s just GONE!!! I had also bought some expansions for the store and some more shelves, freezers, fridges, etc as well as food licenses and products and general and it’s alllllllll gone. It’s so annoying and normally I wouldn’t care if it hadn’t been for the fact that I used my real money to buy some in game stuff just for it to be gone and cease to exist. On top of all of this, it’s impossible to contact support for this game. I looked everywhere and I can’t get in contact with the game developers or someone, anyone. They have a “support” button in the game, but for some reason it just takes me to the Discord and in the Discord I can’t find anything regarding support. Don’t bother with this game… seriously.
