## What is Anchor Tenant?

You own the building. What happens inside it is up to you.

Anchor Tenant is a mall builder where you lay out the space yourself. Drag
walls to carve a unit, hang a door on it, and it becomes something you can
lease. Make it small and a coffee bar fits. Make it twelve tiles or more and it
becomes an anchor — a tenant big enough to pull its own crowd, and lift every
shop within a short walk of it.

That is the whole game: you decide where people walk, and who they walk past.

BUILD THE SPACE
• Walls, doorways and glass shopfronts, placed tile by tile
• The room you build decides who will take it — size is the constraint
• The clock stops while you have a tool in your hand, so you can lay out a
  floor without anyone walking through it

FILL IT
• 34 original tenants across retail, food, service and fun
• Every one has its own fit-out, drawn out in full — the bakery has ovens, the
  bowling alley has lanes, the aquarium shop has tanks
• Level up the ones that earn. Drop the ones that do not

MOVE THE CROWD
• Four kinds of shopper, each in at a different time of day, each after
  something different
• Nobody visits the same brand twice in one trip, so variety is what keeps a
  crowd spending
• Planters, fountains and sculptures make no sales at all — but beauty brings
  people in, keeps them happy on the walk, and counts toward your rating

GROW
• Expand the footprint three times, open a second floor, and buy new entrances
  on any side of the building
• A wider mall means more upkeep every day, so growth is a decision, not a
  reward
• Daily goals pay out in gems, and gems buy anything in the game

NO ADS. NOT ONE.
No interstitials, no rewarded video, no ad SDK anywhere in the build. Gems come
from playing, or you can buy them. Every unlock in the store can also be earned
with gems you never paid for.

Plays offline. Your mall is saved on your device.
