About This Demo

You are the only competent employee.

This free demo is the real first shift: ValuCo #3, corporate's newest turnaround assignment, played exactly as it plays in the full game. No curated slice, no training wheels. Five real days, every mechanic live, one of you.

Think PlateUp, but the kitchen is a supermarket and the ticket rush never stops.

SCAN FOR COMBOS

Work the checkout belt and chain perfect scans for combo tips. The register doesn't care how your day is going, only your rhythm.

THROW THE CRATES

The truck's here and the shelves are empty. Wind up and launch crates clear across the store: hit the shelf and it restocks itself. Miss, and you already know what happens next.

WRANGLE THE CART TRAINS

Chain stray carts into a five-cart snake and haul the whole thing back across the parking lot before the next rush hits.

SURVIVE THE DIRECTIVES

Every night, corporate approves exactly one improvement. The store keeps growing, and so does the headcount: the new hires are exactly as useless as you'd expect.

Your first turnaround ends after day 5, but the campaign doesn't: ValuCo #3 is the smallest of six failing stores corporate needs someone to run. Turn this one around and the reward is a transfer to a worse one, the 24-hour store, the Megamart, the concept store, the Flagship's 14-day Grand Reopening. Each one bigger, busier, and further behind.

Wishlist the full game to keep going. Your demo save carries straight into it, so nothing you did here gets left behind.
