My thoughts of the game

[Cirth]

Hopefully the title is sufficient enough for what I'm about to type.

I like the game its decently priced, fun, interesting and enjoyable/relaxing to play. There has been a few things that has me a little frustrated with the game which I've voiced (restockers/storage). One thing that has been a bit "frustrating" and from what I can see in other threads is the Income for the store doesn't seem to match with the Management tab on the computer as well the Growth.

I feel like I'm being rushed to buy more Sections of the store, buy New Products (Licenses). I've went and looked at store level 30 you're able to buy 2 new groups of products/licenses which will run you 7,975. I rarely have that much because how expensive products are and how much I need for the next day, I usually have a small surplus of some products just in case something comes up.

Noticing the new upcoming update, has me a bit worried for a few reason.

1. The restockers needs some more work, bunch of people have complained about them leaving multiple boxes with less than half of said product instead of just using the box with lesser product first. Also should have it where they combined and put the newly bought product off the sidewalk into storage. I've also voiced this.

2. Would we have enough money or will some of the new upcoming items be giving for free. With this I mean the "cleaning" I'm guessing we will need to get a mop/brush to clean floors? What about the CCTV's and the Anti-theft doors are they going to be cheap or will we need to take a loan.

3. The putting items on sale to attract more customers. Ok sounds nice but I've noticed other people like myself are having a hard time "saving" money or getting enough to buy new stuff. Plus some of the products I've noticed you're not making much profit unless you're fine with a bunch of people not buying said product because it's too expensive.

4. Online orders and delivery this sound nice but I'm guessing going to need to hire a delivery guy(s) and more product.

5. Veggies and Fruit this will be interesting but more product I'll need to buy.

6. Needs to be implemented but still a small problem will need more money for more product which is able to run store at nights too.

7. Should be in game already Purchasing product at a lower cost by physically going to grab it. My only problem with this is how much product can you buy plus how far away, could be a pain having to travel back and forth grabbing product for your store.

8. The one I'm dreading Expiration dates for some items. Which items, how long till they expire (reason I ask because I get a bill every other day saying I have 3 days to pay up rent for the store or I'm charged for a late fee) what happens after they expire?

9. Should also be in game already economy app to see price change, customer stats inventory and to set all prices.

10. One issue I do have with this including some I've mentioned above is the customer stats and attract customers. I'm guessing we will have and need to keep an eye on a customer "happiness" level so no more short changing people that give you a $100 for like a sub total of $4. I short change those people, give me a $5 or a $10 or $20 if you're not going to buy a lot of stuff.

11. Shoplifters cool little add on, one thing is could they go into your storage to steal also could they steal newly bought product that is on the sidewalk. Also what happens do we get store xp, costumer happiness, or just that we didn't lose money.
Also what happens to the product they tried stealing does it magically go back on the shelf if so that might be another problem *looks at restocker problems*.

To sum up, a few things need to be pushed aside some needs more work and really should've been added last update. The 2 biggest concerns I've noticed is not enough money coming into the store (which looks like next update might help but also looks it might not) and the restockers needs more reworking on plus the storage needs more storage expansions.

One thing I decided to do before I post is I went and took note of the profit from the products is find the Mean, Median, Mode and Range. When you go to enter the price down at the bottom it shows how much profit you make by selling 1 item of the product.
Mean (Average): $3.212
Median: $2.73
Range: $8.12
Mode: $2.33, $2.99, $2.55, $2.63, $1.98, $3.3, $1.88 (each appeared 2 times)
Geometric Mean: $2.8642776698259
Largest: $9.17
Smallest: $1.05
Sum: $240.9
Count (# of different product I have): 75

(I went to calculator.net and used their Mean, Median, Mode & Range calculator)
Just went bought enough product to hold me for a day. Income for that day was $4,042.20 Profit for that day was $2,683.06 that is roughly my average profit. So the above numbers are pretty spot on, in other words I could say I pretty much have only 10 costumers come in and buy 1 of each product every day.
I'll also point out I have only hired 1 cashier and 4 restockers while I'm on the other checkout.
