FreshMart: Supermarket Manager

Take an empty corner lot and grow it into the busiest supermarket in town — one shelf, one checkout, one decision at a time.

FreshMart is a hands-on management game, not an idle tapper. Where you put a shelf decides how much it sells. A display facing the main aisle moves stock; the same display in a corner gathers dust. Tap any shelf to see exactly how visible it is, or switch on the traffic heatmap and watch where shoppers actually walk.

RUN A REAL SHOP • Design the floor: aisles, endcaps, checkouts, and the queue that forms in front of them • Seven departments, from produce sold by the kilo to frozen food that spoils overnight • Order bulk stock into your backroom — cases are cheaper by the pallet, but cash tied up in inventory is cash you can't spend • Set prices against a drifting competitor, and run promotions when you need to move stock

A CREW WORTH MANAGING • Every hire has a name, a personality and a skill you can train — the Quick one flies through the queue, the Slacker works cheap • Morale drops after a hard day of long lines. Pay a bonus, or watch them walk • Cashiers, stockers, janitors and security, each with a job only they do well

THINGS GO WRONG • Shoplifters skip the tills. Cameras and a guard on the floor are how you catch them • Litter piles up and shoppers notice • Heatwaves, supplier strikes, holiday rushes and a bake-off next door

GROW, THEN FRANCHISE • Eight levels of goals, each unlocking a system rather than a number • A research tree of permanent upgrades: pallet racking, cold chain, modern tills, loyalty cards • Franchise a finished store and it pays you every day, forever — then open your next location with a bigger grant

No timers, no energy bars, no fail state. Just a shop, and the decisions that make it work.
