Panda Shop Simulator

8 votes

Panda Shop Simulator is a chance to see what it would be like if pandas could run a business. You play as a panda who has been taken over, and now you must run it yourself. You'll serve a community of pandas expanding their tastes for various products. You'll begin with just the space, and you must put all the money you earn at the start into growing your business to offer new products. You must stock the shelves, tend to the customers, and check on your animals and employees. Work hard, and you may one day be able to retire from the panda business.

About Panda Shop Simulator

Anyone who has worked in a shop can tell you it's pretty demanding both in a big city and a small town. In this game, your shop is in the middle of a very active panda community, and they need to get groceries somewhere. You may be the boss, but you're also the first line of defense when running the shop. You must take a hands-on approach to ensure that the customers can carry out their shopping and will be satisfied with their visit. Spend money to make money, and soon your business will start running independently, but don't get left behind.

How to Play

Panda Shop Simulator is a 2D management game about a panda owning and operating a store with the mouse and/or keyboard. You can use the cursor to select the different icons to open menus or move it while holding down the Left Mouse Button to use the onscreen analog stick.

The goal is to upgrade your store and fully serve all your customers. Your profits and other details will be displayed at the top of the screen. The game will continue until you finish all the shops or decide to close up for the day.

The main menu overlays the game screen, where you can access shops for upgrades and hats and select other locations. When you start playing, the boss panda will stand in the middle of an empty shop. Using what little money you have, you must add shelves and products. Plants, animals, and machines will produce everything you sell onsite. The more you upgrade, the more you'll be able to create, and thus, the more you'll be able to sell. You'll also be able to hire employees who can stock products for you, run the cash register, and tend to the animals. Make sure to keep your store safe from any troublemakers that come in. Keep going until you've fully upgraded the shop so that you can open another location.

Tips and Tricks

This is a management game where you must be a very active manager, especially at the start. You can carry multiple items at once, but first, you should upgrade your facilities to produce and stack more than one item at a time. Animals should be upgraded first to make them faster and stay active longer.
