### 4/5 — Finally Found it!!

*2022-08-13*

This game used to be called something else with different products lol. It was way better the old way. I have a request on this new game though. The old game had a tab where you can check the prices around the world so you can know where to go. This one doesn’t. Can you please add a tab where it shows what the candy prices are elsewhere. Because without it you just travel around with all this candy in your bay aimlessly. Thanks and keep up the good work.

### 5/5 — Come back wit more bro
