Jerma bought me here fun game, a little repetitive but if you respect the grind, there's a good amount of content here that's enjoyable. 7/5/10

It's getting a lot of hate but I kind of love it Hyperfocus grinding utopia (iykyk). 7 hours just got deleted from my day It gets pretty hectic, and the grind IS a tad slow, but it's got some great aspects to it I didn't expect: Strange quests Decorations Terrorism??? A lot of different things to manage. Buying and restocking supplies, drawing custom T shirts, pulling people out of washing machines, texting your delivery driver back to tell him to stop at the house with the Giraffe I haven't reached the end game but I'm satisfied with it already. It should be clear if this is your type of game or not. This is NOT a chill and lay back type of sim. It does require a lot of attention during opening hours. DO NOT MISS THE EXCLUSIVE SHOP ON THE DESK. I might have wasted a bit of time by doing so. There's literally an upgrade that doubles your income for 800.

Cheap price & constant update :) You can feel growing your own laundry store. In initial phase, you have to transfer laundry basket to A to B, work as cash register, clean the floor, stock products over shelves and whatever. But, every you got an upgrade, each jobs can be done permanently by employee and getting faster. As time goes by, you are being a store manager. One bad thing is product's market price change is too frequently. Every morning, I have to check all price tag. Also the method for set new price each tag is very inconvenient. It need to be patched to make more comfortable to player ASAP. I'd recommend this if you like simple & repetitive style.

This game is super fun. I DO understand others saying that the costs for upgrading tools,the laundry and employees is super grindy and they are right. But come on: it's a simulator. You don't start with Millions of Dollars. You gotta work for it! I am already max'ed out with everything upgraded and the best Machines and Dryers (currently waiting for more content which will hopefully come soon). What really IS annoying (especially in the beginning where you don't have your Employees) is the CONSTANT breaking of machines,customers getting stuck,customers leaving clothes in the Machines,Customers wanting customized shirts and so on. This can really throw you off because you kinda need to be EVERYWHERE at once. But as soon as you get a routine,you can handle this too easily. All in all a great game to casually play.

This is another shop-like sim game which is actually entertaining enough to keep playing. It is not a difficult game, and it has the typical shop sim game mechanics poured into a laundry business. Is it a perfect game? No! It is an early access game, like many other current shop sims out there. It has some bugs and gameplay can be obstructed because of it. So far, I have had a very fun gameplay without many issues. If you like shop simulation games, this one will probably be fun for you too. So, the core business of the game is to upgrade your laundry business. Grind money for upgrades by doing the typical chores in the shop. You do laundry! You start off with the cheapest machines, a washer and dryer, which break down regularly. The first three machines are not that expensive. After I got 6 washers and 6 dryers, the cheapest kind, I quickly upgraded to the second-tier machines, which cost 26 bucks per machine. I managed to use these machines until my shop reached level 3. There are more expensive machines, which I haven’t used because I didn’t feel the need for it. I guess that the breaking down mechanic will be reduced with higher tier machines. Maybe the time gets reduced, but I haven’t seen that with the first three tiers. I have 7 coin-washers of which 5 are the cheapest ones and 2 are second-tier. The challenge here is to keep them fixed. Which adds to the gameplay for me. So far, I have been running back and forth between my 6 washers and dryers and I check the coin washers regularly to see if they are broken. There are hints to look or listen for. There will be a notification when a machine is broken and there will be a crackling noise when you get close. Broken machines can leak and cause a puddle on the floor. Customers will slip and fall, but so far, I haven’t seen any negative effect for it yet. I also have two suit washers, which bring in new customers. I have my shop at level 4, I upgraded some things in the shop to get their effects. My ironing area is at level 2, my dirty laundry area has 5 spots, my laundry storage has 12 spots, and my washing products are at level 4. Most effects are related to tip money. Better upgrades area’s give increased tips. I have the first three employees working for me, one cashier, one helping with laundry and one for ironing and folding. They are all upgraded to level 2, which makes them faster. If I do the laundry myself, which I did for a long time, I manage to do 30 baskets per day, with the help of the employees, we do 30 to 35 baskets per day. The thing to look out for with employees is that they don’t clean the fur in laundry, and they don’t care about the order of baskets. I had once a man waiting for his basket, number 6, while numbers 20 to 27 were being cleaned. His basket was sitting in a dryer for a long time. If customers are waiting to long, or if you mess up the laundry (i.e. not ironing before folding) the tip will be reduced or 0. That is the only negative side effect so far. Same goes for the t-shirt printing area. Although I don’t get why this is part of the game, and I think this can use some reworking, negative orders will only affect the tip money. There is a delivery service, I haven’t used it yet because I noticed the game hasn’t been updated beyond shop level 4. I think I will wait for the next update before I continue the game. Then there are the characters outside that can give you missions and rewards. There are random characters that you can interact with and have a reward at the end. So far, I have helped the bum near the trash container, the kids with the deer, and slendy. I also have a spooky kid staring at the shop occasionally, but I haven’t been able to find a way to interact with him. I guess this part is not yet implemented or I need to look harder. There are codes in the play area, same goes for the newspaper, which can give you some money if entered in the phone. The best way to get money fast is to check the achievements board in the office. There are things to keep in mind when playing this game. It is still in development after all. So, bugs can happen. People walk through the appliances, which is fine because otherwise they probably get stuck, but the pathing could be worked on. The shelves for the mini mart are stuck in place and not in a logical way. They are scattered throughout the shop. I would love to be able to move them around, just like the washers and other machines. The placing of machines is not modular, and the outline is not always accurate. For example, the suite washers are bigger than the outline indicates. Placing appliances don’t snap to each other and leave a tiny area between them. It is also not possible to place washers and/or dryers on top of each other, like the coin-washers. I have 6 washers and dryers in the main area of the laundry shop. The washers are on the wall adjacent to the coin-washer area. All 6 washers line up. The dryers are on the other side, on the short wall. There can only be 5 dryers on that wall, the 6th is in front of the shelves and window. This is caused by the door, there is just no room to put 6 appliances in a row on that wall. There is one mechanic that you see in many shop sims, cleaning the floor. Where dirty spots and footsteps appear out of nowhere. I hate this mechanic, and this game has it too. The footsteps are huge, and it seems that they appear more at the end of the day. This is something that could be more balanced. The empty boxes from products can be thrown away in the trash container. I would like to see and option to throw them away inside the building, like a maintenance area and then you have to clear the inside container every now and then as well. This way, it would be possible to lose less time when adding products to the shelves during business hours. Shop renovation would be a nice addition too. As of now, there is decoration you can add, but the walls and floors stay the same, greyish dirty look. I would love to add new paint to the walls and make the building look clean again. Upscaling could be more balanced too. I am not sure if the current way to get money is build in because of early access. I think upscaling should go gradually. The reason I don’t buy the fourth-tier machines, is because they are more expensive. If I make, let’s say, 500 buck per day, and the machine costs 100 to 200 bucks, plus paying bills (which are only 4 bucks each day), and buying products, and buying ink for the printer and wanting to get more machines, it can be a struggle to upscale more. There is also a loan. This has had no consequences for me so far. I assume this is because it is still EA and the story is probably not yet completely implemented. Paying it back with the current income, will be very hard. I hope this will be looked at for future updates. All in all, this is a fun game, worth playing if you like shop-sims.
