Convenience Stories

one of my fave kairosoft games! super cozy, addicting, and surprisingly strategic. there's just smth soooo fun about managing your own convenience store, arranging shelves, discovering combos, and watching your store grow. it feels cozy but still strategic. definitely one of those games i keep coming back to. (˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶)

I sank more hours into this game than I'm proud to admit and still find myself missing some end game trophies. It's super fun and incredibly addicting! I loved the style of opening up new areas, all the new characters, and challenges. But it was a slog going back to re-update my stores and organization when I unlocked new shelves and such. At least there passive income incorporation that made it just a little bit easier to finish the basic goals, and losing against a rival doesn't shut down your store- you can also return to previously completed areas to pick up things you might have missed. Sometimes it does feel like there is a little much going on, and rng can be cruel when you're trying to get certain customer's wishes fulfilled or snag them as regulars. I've decided to take a break before grinding out more of the end-game content (unlocking the last few rare characters and fulfilling all wishes / raising product quality to 800 / etc). But this might be my favorite Kairosoft game so far! I'd definitely suggest taking it slow, focus on negotiations, and make it a priority to unlock new products & staff when choosing your bonuses from regular customers. Only NG+ if you think i…

so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ hard at the start compared to other kairosoft games but it gets fun i'm buying every ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ game from these goats

extremely fun and straight forward. if you like any kairosoft game, you'll love this one. less minigames than some, a bit less complex than a few, but ultimately very rewarding and fun. a lot more time spent waiting to make money than in most kairo games; less pop ups that shorten the time if you walk away for a few, though. definitely always save before moving stores in case you end up with not enough money to get the new one actually up and running!! i find you usually must run the prior store an extra year past when you qualify for the next upgrade. if you're only buying one, or a couple, kairo games, perhaps switching from mobile to pc, i would highly recommend picking up this one! one of a few that is reasonably challenging without having to pull out the wiki as you do in the more creative-based sims. if you're not into kairosoft and curious, it's very similar to let's build a zoo, in fact all kairosoft games are; low res pixel art style, menu and pop up based, where you use research points to unlock new goods//services and place shelves/fixtures/campsites(whatever the sim would have equivalent), and in some games pay to place products, usually unlocked through research in som…
