This is a soft review. Meaning this is what I think for now but I will change this as more updates come in. As of now this will be a negative review but only because there is a lot of work needed still.
For example I painted most of my shop then saved the game and logged off. Later I logged back on to find a shop with no paint on the walls.
Secondly there is n no real tutorial. You need a tutorial to take you through your first sale and show you how everything works. Right now the game basically gives you a list of keys and what they do (which some of them don't do) so a definite tutorial is needed.
Also as mentioned some of the keys listed don't do what they supposed to do. For example I opened the shop. A guy walks up to sell something. I grab the scanner to scan the box (I think that's what you do since I didn't have a tutorial to help me) and nothing happened when I pressed the scan button. Also couldn't put the scanner down.
All this could probably be avoided with a tutorial that show you how to do everything once.
Anyway I will leave it there. If there isn't an update within a week I will refund and come back in a month or 2 and see how it is going. I see a lot of potential here and the dev seems to care. SO I look forward to seeing where it goes. But for now I can't suggest that people buy the game. Wait for an update. Mainly for a tutorial.

I tried, I really tried to make this broken game work.. but I failed and just wasted an hour of my time. The simple face is people that this game is NOT worth any amount of money right now because it is not even close to being a finished product.

I do see some effort put into this game, and it's actually a pretty cool idea for a simulator game. I love the idea of bargaining with customers to buy and sell products to try and make your maximum profit. However even the haggling aspect is severely broken and just seems to be 100% RNG on whether they agree to the price you off or counter offer you. The developer needs to make sure the customers have a "lowest price they will settle for" before they come into your shop to try and sell their item. Right now, it's just way too random to be realistic or fun haggling.
This game right now at early access launch is a LOOOONG way from being finished and worthy of your money. Maybe wait six months and see if this developer has lots of big updates and if the reviews have drastically improved from the current "0% positive" before diving in.
NOT RECOMMENDED. Right now this product is so broken, no pawn shop in the world would pay even a bloody nickel for it.

Refunded after 5mins of gameplay. I was able to clean the floors, Bag the trash. Could pick up the bags but would not let me sit them back down or throw in the dumpster. Early access is unplayable.

I have only left one negative review ever but with the fast work of the devs i got to change it into a positive one.
Unfortunately i ended up requesting a refund myself in under 10 minuets. There's no option to turn the music off so its not good to make videos for you tube in case of copyright. The game just throws you in. with some of the keys. Hold F to pick up trash, but then i ended up walking round down dark ally to find the dumpster. Once found i couldn't throw the trash away.
I know it only came out today, but it is really unplayable.

The game does not function at all. If you managed to arrive at the moment when you have a customer to pay, it just stops.. You can do nothing at all after you open the cash register, although the time inside the game is passing, so it is not a freezing problem. I needed to close the game going through Task Manager.

Refund the game afther on hour playing it is not worth the money
Keys are not right when you press Q the pause menu shows up will it should rotate stuff

Overall nice concept buy not worth the money for the moment game is to buggy to can play on a decent way save your money for a better game then this
To me it feels like a big cash crap nothing more
and maybe if the dev work more on this game and afther a few update then I will maybe buy it back and chance my review of the game

Die Steuerung funktioniert nicht. Wenn man zum Beispiel einen Müllsack aufhebt, kann man diesen nicht wegwerfen. Der Müllsack wird nicht geworfen. Sowas ist kein Early Access würdig.
Da hilft es auch nicht, das Game günstig anzubieten.
Leute lässt die Finger von diesem Game, bis es gefixt ist.
