### 3/5 — 我要中文

*2026-07-16, version 2.00*

Optimize not to recruit bakery clerks, add Chinese. The staff will always stand outside the store. The customer can't find the item he wants. Optimize quickly, optimize quickly.

### 3/5 — Improvements

*2026-06-17, version 1.94*

Decent game. However, is there a possibility 1. where we can have the option to sell our equipment if we want a different one. 2. Where instead of having to go into the catalog to buy product we can use the scanner to scan the item on the shelf and add it to the cart to buy, and 3. Lastly where the workers don’t keep putting things on the wrong shelf in the storage room when the player already placed each in the order they want them to be in the storage room:

### 3/5 — Cote negatif

*2026-06-12*

Bonjour, le jeu est bien, je vais dire les cotés négatifs qui ne sont pas déjà dit dans les autres commentaires, j’ai testé au bout du 100 jours et j’ai remarqué que les factures du jeux montes beaucoup trop vite ceux qui empêchent de faire du bénéfices, 115 la facture locale et 50 la facture d’electricite tous les jours cela fait beaucoup de dépense en plus des employés. Ensuite quand on achete beaucoup d’items il est dommage que tout les objets s’éparpille de partout meme sur la route ceux qui fait que les magasinier ne viennent pas les prendre. Je pense aussi que l’extension de la boutique augmente beaucoup trop, ceux qui fait qu’avec un petit magasin on ne peut mettre tout les produits et donc impossible de tester de nouvelles licences. Il devrait avoir aussi des jours bonus pour avoir un plus gros CA comme par exemple tous les 6-7 jours il y a plus de monde qui achètent avec un plus gros panier moyen. Car tourner autour 2000€ au bout du 100 jours avec + de 800€ factures/jours il est difficile de faire du bénéfice. Soit je suis nul soit vraiment j’ai l’impression qu’a partir d’un moment le bénéfice descends de jour en jour a cause de l’augmentation des factures.

### 3/5 — Estou com problemas

*2026-06-06*

Help! Os funcionários pararam de trabalhar, só os caixas trabalham agora!

### 3/5 — lack of cloud save function

*2026-05-30, version 1.94*

Perfect, here's the final version that ties all your points together smoothly for the US store:

"I’ve been obsessed with growing my in-game supermarket, but the missing account login and cloud save features ruin the experience. Not being able to back up my progress means switching devices or even an accidental uninstall forces me to start completely over. It’s heartbreaking to lose hours of work just because there’s no way to sync my data. Fix this, and this easily becomes one of the best management games on the store."

### 5/5 — CADE ATUALIZAÇÃO??

*2026-05-24*

### 5/5 — Звезды

*2026-05-08, version 1.94*

### 5/5 — Shopping fun

*2026-05-02, version 1.94*

I love the game and the style of it and all the upgrades you can do to it but you can’t sell the shelves for better ones and I wish you could be I don’t like that

### 3/5 — …

*2026-04-30, version 1.94*

Hard. Takes days to reach actual store mode. Impossible to get to actual store mode. Pls make my shop 10% wider pls. It’s super hard to move my stuck line and stuck register so pls make mine 10% bigger bye

### 5/5 — Game hay, no ads

*2026-04-16, version 1.94*

Game hay lắm, gameplay mượt mà chỉn chu, bị 1 số lỗi nhỏ thôi, ví dụ tag hàng hoá trong kho nếu empty thì sẽ tự bị nhảy tag sang hàng hoá khác gây ra sự lộn xộn cho nhân viên lúc xếp kho, hoặc thỉnh thoảng còn box dưới đất nhưng nhân viên đứng im ko bê vào. Mong nhà phát hành bán game đi em mua bằng tiền cho, đừng chèn quảng cáo như các game simulator khác rất khó chịu. Lâu lắm ko thấy update tính năng mới. Mong nhà phát hành phát triển tối ưu game này chứ đừng drop nha. Em gần như là đã down và chơi thử hết các thể loại simulator trên điện thoại và duy nhất chỉ có game này làm em hài lòng thôi ạ.

### 3/5 — Fun but

*2026-04-12, version 1.94*

I love that there are zero adds! It’s a simple fun game but my only issue is customers can’t find dark bread but I have no idea on how to even purchase dark bread when it’s not under and of the licenses…. If someone knows how to purchase dark bread without the bakery as I’m only level 3 please tell me….

### 4/5 — cần cập nhật nhiều thứ

*2026-04-12, version 1.94*

nhân viên xếp đồ và nhân viên thanh toán làm quá chậm phải nói là rất chậm và cày tiền rất rất rất lâu mong nhà làm game sửa lại

### 2/5 — Bug!!!

*2026-04-10, version 1.94*

Bug sering terjadi dimna para staff atau penjaga toko roti tidak mau bekerja! Padahal tidak ada barang yg menghalangi dan sebelumnya baik aja gada masalah tiba tiba saja hanya diam diluar ! Tolong fiks bug!

### 5/5 — Отзыв по игре

*2026-04-09*

Игра довольно хорошая, я бы даже сказала отличная! Нету энергий и поэтому заказ приходит сразу) Нету рекламы, большой вам поклон! Честно от игры положительные эмоции, игра сразу захватывает, много лицензий, расширение помещения и склада, и конечно работники!
Не в одну игру так не рвалась как в вашу:)
Если читаете отзыв, то я советую игру если вам не чем заняться, это намного лучше подобных игр)

### 3/5 — C’est une expérience sympa MAIS

*2026-04-08*

Mon conjoint et moi avons enchaîné 24h de jeu non-stop, donc nous avons eu le temps de tester le jeu en profondeur. C’est une expérience sympa, mais plusieurs points méritent vraiment d’être améliorés.

Ce qui manque :
Aucune récompense à la montée de niveau c’est frustrant, un simple bonus ou un déblocage suffirait à rendre la progression plus satisfaisante.

Les voitures roulent sur les cartons sans s’arrêter. Si le jeu vise le réalisme, elles devraient les éviter ou freiner.

Les clients repartent les mains vides après un achat un sac ou un emballage serait bien plus immersif.

Le joystick de déplacement est mal positionné, collé à une autre touche, ce qui provoque des erreurs fréquentes.
	
Les employés ne sont que des hommes il serait bien de pouvoir choisir leur genre.

On ne peut pas personnaliser son propre personnage, alors qu’on peut modifier les employés, c’est incohérent.

Impossible de tester les peintures ou décorations avant de les appliquer un aperçu serait très utile.

Aucun rappel pour les factures : on doit s’en souvenir seul, ce qui casse le rythme.

Les employés en pause fixent le mur ils pourraient fumer, être sur leur téléphone ou simplement rentrer chez eux, ça rendrait le jeu bien plus vivant.

Les cartons qui traversent les murs deviennent irrécupérables un bug à corriger en priorité.

On ne peut pas rentrer chez soi, alors qu’en tant que gérant, avoir un domicile serait une belle extension de gameplay.

Aucune liberté en dehors du magasin dans d’autres jeux du même genre, on peut se promener en ville, faire du sport, jouer au basket ou conduire des voitures. Ici, on est totalement limité à l’espace du magasin, ce qui manque de vie et de profondeur.
	
Pas de téléphone pour le personnage un smartphone intégré permettrait d’ajouter une touche de réalisme.
	
Aucune option de livraison, pouvoir livrer des commandes à domicile ou gérer un service de livraison ajouterait une vraie dimension logistique au jeu.
	
Pas de caisses automatiques elles sont incontournables dans la grande distribution aujourd’hui, leur absence se remarque vraiment.
	
Impossible de visiter la boutique des autres joueurs le mode hors ligne fonctionne très bien et c’est appréciable, mais il manque une option multijoueur optionnelle : quand on active Internet, on devrait pouvoir aller visiter la boutique de ses amis, s’en inspirer ou simplement voir leur progression. Ce serait un vrai plus social sans obliger personne à jouer connecté.

Malgré tout ça, le potentiel est là et on a vraiment pris du plaisir. Avec ces ajustements, ce jeu pourrait facilement devenir un coup de cœur à recommander. J’espère que les développeurs prendront ces retours en compte ! 🛒

### 5/5 — City Shop

*2026-04-06, version 1.94*

The game is amazing! There are only a few things missing
1. We need some more licenses. 
2. There needs to be a mini fridge or small chip shelf to put in the checkout lane.
3. Lastly, a wand to order items would be really nice too. 
Other than that, it’s pretty much the best free simulator games out there!

### 5/5 — I need help costumer support

*2026-07-27, version 2.00*

Ever since the update my stockers freeze and I can’t use them so I go and stop paying them and they leave but when I get them back the freeze again I have no idea why but I need help fixing it

### 5/5 — Love this Game

*2026-07-18, version 2.00*

I love this game and play it all the time.  Growing and updated the store at every level gives a sense of achievement.  The only thing I wish the Devs. fixed is the lights they put in and you can purchase.  You can turn them on and off but they don’t actually light anything up in the store.  So when the weather is raining, it gets really dark in the store, and you can see that the lights are on but they’re not making things brighter.  It’s kind of a waste of money to buy something and not have it work the way it’s supposed to.  But still 5/5 for me on the game.

### 5/5 — Melhor simulador de supermercado

*2026-07-04*

Ele é ótimo, antes de instalar achei que era igual aos outros que tinha anúncios e etc, mas quando entrei era o melhor simulador de todos, sem anúncios e tudo de bom

### 5/5 — Great game!

*2026-07-02, version 2.00*

This is a great game, I found that it was perfect for the game I wanted. I just find it really hard to make money. So maybe, make it a little easier. Somehow I’m always broke!😬 I love the game though, it’s so fun and I play it everyday. Totally recommend it. Also NO ADDS! Awesome 👊🏻👍 Download it. You won’t regret it.

### 5/5 — 让我们说中文

### 5/5 — Круто

Очень крутое обновление

### 5/5 — Love this game

*2026-06-08, version 1.94*

I love this one compared to the others but umm please update it like maybe more stockers and better clothes so they can be dressed different I really love how you build up your money so fast. I love these bakery but the person I hired just stands outside and the amount of racks should equal the breads and pastries other than that I’m loving this game. Can you please add more and better wallpaper and flooring please.

### 5/5 — Замечательно

*2026-05-26*

Разработчики этой игры просто святые. Интересная игра без рекламы, не вынуждает делать покупки, нет ограничения в энергии, ожидания поставок и тп
