Topic:three diffrent strategy tips

  • three diffrent strategy tips

    Hmmm.... hopefully I do not wrong, with what Im writing now, but I have a few other experiences with the game than it is told in three parts of strategy in tips and tricks. I ll write that down, maybe some others make same experience as me and can get along another way.

    * If you need to meet a goal that includes making a certain amount of money (that does not involve shop value), then sell something at the last minute to make your goal. Good items to sell are some Patience Improvers since by then most of the customers that needed them will be gone.

    - You can wait, till the last customer payed and then click to pause the game and fullfill the the goal you are missing. Goals that you can fullfill at the end, if necessary, are: Moneygoal, Shopvalue-Goal, Shopping-Class goal. When you have the money- and the value- or/and the shopping class goal, it can be very tricky to find the right items to sell, because every sold evening means also a minus in the shopvalue-goal and c a n mean a minus in the shopclass - goal. So you will need every cent to fullfill the moneygoal and its good when all customers are already paid. The game is over and you have to redo the level, when the last customer left the shop

    * When your store is getting full buy an additional cash register so the lines don't get too long. You'll be able to service more people that way and make more money.

    - In nearly every level (after the first three or so) I buy the second cashregister before the shop opens. Specially in the later levels, you have customers that have less patient. So they already have to wait at the shelf, because the starting money is never that high. When they have to wait at the cashregister also, the risk is high, that they leave the shop. With the second cashregister I never lost a customer because of this.


    * Another thing you can do if you don't have a lot of money in the beginning is to buy items that do not require something else to go along with it. For example:
    * Shoes require a fitting bench.
    * Clothes shelves and Fashion displays require a dressing room.
    * Sunglasses and hats need a mirror.
    * Instead, stick to items that don't require an
    additional unit to go with it. For example:
    * Sporting Goods section
    * Toy display
    * Bicycle Stand


    I saw it a little bit diffrent. Specially in the later levels, you can manage it, to have two or three shelfs, to keep more customers happy. They dont need the fitting bench or the mirror at once. So a media shelf, toys and hats or clothes are really good, because they all can serve two customers at the same time. Hats and clothes are the favourits of the most costomers, but specially of them, which spend a lot of money (for example the woman in the blue evening dress). When you just have one of the big ones, the customers have to wait to long, before they can choose. Maybe its just me, but when I first tried it the way with sporting goods, bicycles etc. I always lost one or more customer. But at the last levels you are not even allowed to loose one customer.

    Customers will only require mirror, fitting bench or patientimprover, when you have the money for it. So play by looking forward and be fast. When you have money, buy what you think, you need most ( I always had for example as soon as possible a newspaper stand - this is the patientimprover for the most inpatient customers) and do it at once, so the customers dont have time to have own wishes.

    Margie, I hope I dont make you angry with this. Its for sure not meant like this.

    I even tried a common mirror for sunglasses and hats and I fooled my customers. Hi hi hi! Although there are not a million ways of winning. Have you finished it Kayleigh?
