Review from: GameZebo

Apparently, each year the average American consumes 4 pounds of potato chips, 30 pounds of cheese, 56 gallons of soda pop, 75 pounds of sugar, and 221 pounds of meat. Yikes! Anyone getting indigestion? Around 2.4 million people are employed the grocery stores that provide this food, and supermarket cashiers earn a about $7.90 per hour on average. It might not be the best paying career on the planet, but hey, it's a living.

In Supermarket Mania, it's time to earn your salt. The big conglomerate Torg Corporation is everywhere, and so you hesitantly decide to get a job working in the Torg Supermarket as a stock girl. You thought you did so well! Well, Mr, Torg did not agree. After being retrenched and replaced by a team of robots, you are lucky enough to find work for the tiny, run-down grocery store owned by Mr. Clarence. The question is, can you help him defeat his old nemesis and run the best supermarket in town?

Throughout the game, your primary goal is to keep the shelves of the supermarket stocked, so that customers can gather all of the items they require without losing patience. As the customers buy items, the shelves deplete, and need to be restocked. Stocking the shelves is done by clicking on them. A shelf does not need to be completely empty in order to be restocked, so it pays to keep up.

You can fill up five stalls with a full food cart (seven with an upgrade). Once empty, you need to refill your cart. To fill your cart, click on the stockroom and wait until the gauge is full. The cart's stock is shown by a gauge on the lower right side of the screen.

In addition to stocking shelves, you must clean up any trash that might trip your customers, and drop it in the recycle bin. If you want a boost of energy, a cup of coffee will really boost your speed...

WHEW!!! Whether you're a food service employee, a grocery chain manager or simply a person who goes shopping, Supermarket Mania from Alawar Entertainment and G5 Entertainment is the time management game for you!! After playing it all the way through (several times), I discovered that there were a lot of things I didn't know about my neighborhood grocery store -- and Supermarket Mania lets you manage ALL of them!

Are you eager to do well on your first day of work? Work as fast as you can and you'll be rewarded! Are you looking for more responsibility? Maybe you want to generate more sales? Work a little harder (and smarter) and you'll be rewarded! Do you want to make your store the best store and take pride in your work? Keep at it -- all the way to the end!!! Just try to get an excellent on all of the levels. (It's not easy!)...

With the price of groceries going up by the minute, Supermarket Mania offers a great deal in keeping you busy for hours avoiding a trip to the grocery store. Like the coffee shop on every corner, Torg has supermarkets all over town giving Nikki little choice but to go work there as a stocker.

Nikki doesn’t like the looks of Torg when scary-looking robots greet her on her first day of work. After four days of excellent work, Mr. Torg fires her and her cashier friend. He activates the robots to run his stores. The girls find a better place in a run down pop store (well, there’s no mom as far as we can see) run by Mr. Clarence. He trusts the girls to run the store alone.

The girls deal with different types of customers who have different styles of shopping. Granny takes her time and has plenty of patience while teens have zero patience and move quickly. Kids tear up the place until you have your security guard friend, Mr. Barefist (I wonder how they came up with that), blow the whistle to stop their antics. Barefist also comes in handy in stopping brazen thieves.

You have two ways to catch a thief. Notify Barefist while the thief has a circle over his head to stop the thief who moves on to the next attempt or leaves the store. Or be patient and let the circle over the thief’s head fill and shake — alert Barefist at that time and you earn a cash bonus. However, the shaky thing doesn’t happen every time so waiting for a full circle could lead to thief getting away with … well, theft.

Upgrades are present ranging from better products that sell for more money and a gumball machine for more tips to a faster loading stockroom and the most expensive one, a bigger cart. As you advance levels more upgrades show up to help keep customer patience from spiraling when so many require your time in stocking the shelves...

Review from: Game Advisor

Never ever think of managing a supermarket. Its unbelievably hard! And to understand this, you have to try it by yourself in the brand new time management game Supermarket Mania.

You might already know, that in time management games you have to serve customers. But in the Supermarket Mania they can serve themselves pretty well. Well enough to make you busy.

In this game, customers just come to your supermarket and take what they need from showcases. And your job is to keep the showcases full of goods. Because if customers can’t find what they want for a long time, they just leave and you lost the money.

Different customers have different preferences on food. For example, grannies just love sausages. Especially with a milk. Teens are usually don’t get too much. They prefer soda, cakes and the ice-cream. Ladies are buying many different groceries, but just a few from each of them. And gentlemen are always love to buy a lot from almost every showcase...
