Grand MALL Simulator

Love the idea of running my own mall, but the execution leaves a lot to be desired, which is particularly unfortunate in a game stuck in early access as an abandoned project the dev doesn't even care enough to charge a substantial amount of money for, although I'm not shocked something this bare-bones is as cheap as it is. While I wasn't expecting anything that feels genuinely real, the lack of realism in [i]Grand Mall Simulator[/i] is sorely disappointing. Not only do the NPCs largely look the same, but they also just kind of stand around T-posing. All of your employees are "working" (standing around while business is magically conducted invisibly) 24/7, hence their pay being denoted as a daily rate. You can't hire mall staff beyond runners who stock shelves for whichever stores need inventory to be restocked. No security guards, no janitors, no food court staff (probably because there is no food court, LOL), no one running little kiosks or activities, etc. Even stores can only have two employees: one cashier (implementation outlined above) & one store manager, whose functionality I never did discover. You don't get to see the managers, either, unless they're the creepy bearde…

I have waited quite a long while to write a review for the game, I am around 60 hrs. in since it first released, I loved the game right from the start, it was something different and for the price, well worth a go, There has been quite a few issues, and with a 2 person Dev. Team it took some time to get it to a pretty good place with minor issues, I stopped playing after getting all the stores filled out and had tons of cash with nothing to spend it on The Devs disappeared for awhile with little to no communication, until just the last week, There is a post from the now Solo Dev. about that so I wont speak to it as somethings changed There was a wipe and I started a new playthrough, I still love the game, and the idea, however some issues are creeping back in and some adjustments need to be made, I support the Dev. and seriously hope things can get turned around for the game, I expect it will take quite some time to get it running smoothly and have more QOL features if The Dev decides to continue supporting the game My final thoughts are.. for $6 US .. it is more than a bargain and can give many hours of fun if You can overlook some jank

Abandoned, no updates in a almost a year :(

really good game but wish if you close all stores the night would go faster

The calendar needs work, as I was working and noticed it was the 34th of March. I love the game! I am excited for any updates that may come! I finished in 53.5hours. all stores open and running with the best shelves and best employees, vending machines mini shops and outside businesses. I also purchased and decorated each property. :)

good game worth the money
