Team


Synopsis

You are a recent hire into a budget shop chain during a tax hike event, and the company is finding any way possible to cut costs! People are rushing in to get their hands on the discounted products, and you are the only one standing between them and bagging the goodies. Armed with a faulty and slow POS machine, how long can you survive this onslaught and become the one-and-only star employee?


Gameplay

Endless workplace simulator game where you try your best to serve each customer by correctly checking out their shopping list. Complete each procedure with an increasingly faulty system, and at the same time report malicious customers that may swap discount stickers for a totally different product.


Theme interpretation

  • "Nothing can go wrong ..." as everything can go wrong will go wrong, especially with poor equipment and time constraints.



Controls

  • [Mouse Button 1] to interact with an item
  • [Mouse Button 2] to drag and drop an item / POS monitor



Trivia

POS System, or Point of Sales System is the machine you commonly see when you are paying at the till. These systems are usually custom-made with hardware and software tailored to the client's needs. Nowadays though it's more common to find POS systems as an entirely software-based solution built on a smart tablet.

this was so fun! i love simulator games and this was spot on and very great to play. The only thing i didn't like was the swinging of the tools, i think they swung a bit too much and it made it very hard to scan some things. But other than that, everything was great. Loved the sound, art, and music. Very great game!

Very nice art work and well polished, the game itself feels great. thankyou for my termination notice :D

cool game woulda liked for it to be more mobile friendly
