Game was fun at first, running the stall and choosing what to buy, but after franchising all the initial locations the game just becomes an idle game. Log in, collect, upgrade, leave.

played it for 10 seconds before it asked me to rate it, but so far, so good Update: That was a fun diversion. I went as far as I could go in this game. (33 locations + all upgrades. The 34th location put me over capacity.) It took me about 2 days (595 game days). I love the theme and concept. If I had one critique it would be that it was too easy. My favorite part was reading the hot dog reviews from the Chicago customers. They were hilariously authentic. Good job devs.

This is a fun and strategic game where you grow your hot dog business empire! (it's easily worth the low cost to avoid the ads!)
