In Squirrel Shop Adventure, you step into the shoes of a budding shop owner striving for success in the world of retail. Your mission? To manage a quaint little seed shop for a whole year, consisting of 52 challenging weeks. Your ultimate goal is to become the esteemed ‘Best Store Manager.’ With a modest initial budget of $100, you’ll need to make savvy business decisions, from purchasing seeds to setting their prices, and even managing your shop’s marketing expenses. Your success hinges on keeping your finances in check and satisfying the demands of eager customers. As the seasons change, so does the demand for different seeds. It’s your job to adapt, providing customers with the seeds they desire while ensuring your inventory remains well-stocked. But remember, managing your budget wisely is crucial.
