You build a bakery as your beginning shop, and then the first customers appear to purchase goods automatically with different purchase demands after finishing the construction. In this way, you need to use truck to place a delivery order so as to satisfy different customers’ requirements.
The delivery supplies shop with baked goods like bread, croissant and bretzel, but takes an amount of time to replenish the stock. Each time the delivery arrives at the door, make sure to take the order as soon as possible. Otherwise, there will be no more coins for a delivery bonus at all. The higher the order amount, the more the coin bonus. Meanwhile, the truck level determines the capacity of delivery. Originally, you begin with the capacity of delivering two kinds of goods, which is barely enough for the demand. If you want to increase the capacity, you can upgrade the truck by using four parts either purchased with cash or collected for free from friends’ help. However, you can only publish the second request feed on Facebook after a certain time.
In My Shops, you need to pay attention to every customer’s requirements. All the goods will be sold out within a given time listed on the bottom left.
