Purchase Yellow Dye No. 70 from The Stall (third item in the last column). Double-click the item to buy it, then use it to flag suspected burnt popcorn during gameplay.

Why does the game language keep changing to Arabic?

This was a known bug in earlier versions. Updates have addressed this issue, ensuring the language setting remains stable. Check for the latest app update in the App Store.
