Buy an abandoned gas station in the middle of nowhere and restore it to its former glory. Get rid of the broken furniture, fix up the walls, paint and decorate. Just don’t spend all your cash on the looks right away, you bought a gas station after all. Repair the equipment, buy those that can’t be repaired and start serving your customers to earn money for further renovations and improvements.
The more you widen your gas station’s appeal, the more customer demands will vary. The truckers want a healthy meal and a shower while the Tesla driver wants a Latte while he waits for his car to charge up. Expand the range of services you offer by adding stations, buildings and appropriate equipment. Why not expand and build a shop area, build a car wash station or even a small motel? How about some slot machines to ramp up the profits?
Restoring your gas station is one thing, giving it a personal touch another. The game offers a wide array of options to customize what you have already built, ranging from your own color schemes, the name of your gas station to decorations inside and outside.
Don’t forget to advertise! Letting people know about your existence and services you expand will drive even more customers to you. It might not come cheap, but pays for itself in the long run.
Serving your customers is key in running your gas station with success. They all expect to have their cars filled up and their food served right away. You are going to be dealing with some serious time pressure at peak hours and have to schedule various tasks for when it’s less hectic. Proper time management and closing the right priorities becomes very important when it comes to keeping your customers happy.
You can try, but the more you expand the less likely that you will be able to manage it all on your own. Hire the right people to help you run your business, but keep a close eye on them. Some employees might just not do their job right, slack, lack the right attitude to serve customers or even steal.
You can’t sell what you don’t have. Keeping track of your stock is important and ordering at the right time for the right price helps to keep profits up. You can also opt to increase your profits further by procuring from less reputable sources. Remember the gas truck that went missing last week the newspaper wrote about? Well, a shady character is just offering you a full gas delivery at half the price…
Or maybe you want to take some shadier goods into your offer, the profit margins certainly are enticing.
Sometimes it just isn’t possible to keep every customer happy, some are just out to get you. Don’t worry, you have many stupid and mean things you can do to take revenge on such people. Drop their food, be extra slow to hand things over, shake their soda real good or just throw stuff at them. Dozens of ways to get back at those nasty ones. Just don’t overdo it, others might be watching.
Irritating or shady customers, your staff breaking or stealing things or too much pressure are by far not the only situations you’ll have to deal with. You have a triving business and some people just want a piece of it. You will have to find means and ways to deal with robbery or extortion attempts not to mention vandalism or the occasional level of stupidity.Key FeaturesWide range of choices and approaches in every aspect of the game.
