Top 6 Skills to Get First
At the start of the game, only a few skills are available on the skill tree. As you unlock them, new skills will appear. Each skill costs money, so prioritize carefully and avoid wasting money on abilities that won’t help later. Here are my top 6 skills for the early game.
Extra Carry
It comes as a no-brainer that you will need this skill at the earliest. If you have $2, I recommend getting this first. With this, you can increase the number of products you can carry at a time. At base level, it is 5 items, but you can carry extra items upon upgrading this skill.
Request More
After unlocking Extra Carry, you will find a new skill branch beside it that will unlock the Request More skill. It does get a bit expensive to get this skill, as it costs $5. But this skill is very much worth it, as you can collect as many of the same products that are in your hand. There are 5 upgrade levels for this, and it makes it easier to pick up the same items from the pile of stuff on the floor.
Shelf Finder
You need to unlock the Quick Step skill first to get to this one. By far, I found this skill to efficiently help me find the right shelves and save some time. How this skill works is that while holding a product, the shelf where the item needs to be placed will be automatically highlighted. This saves a lot of time that would otherwise be spent going back and forth through the aisles.
Match Finder
You can use this skill in combination with Request More. While Request More will help you carry more of the same items, Match Finder will help you find the same item as the one in your hand. Personally, I wish I could get this skill first, but you need to go through a series of skills first before you can get to it. Plus, it costs $3 to unlock.
Match Finder+
An advanced form of the original Match Finder. Match Finder will help you locate the same items, but Match Finder+ lets you pick them up automatically. But the hefty price tag will set you back, as it costs $15 to unlock it. Fortunately, there is only one tier of this skill, so it is $15 well spent.
Long Reach
I initially thought I could make do without this skill, but it did prove handy when things were starting to get out of hand. Long Reach lets you grab items that are out of reach, so you don’t have to cover longer distances to find items on the floor.
