About Supermarket Expert Idle
You collect products from the places they are grown or produced, carry them to the department they belong in, and put them on the shelf. Then you work the counter and check out the customers who came for them. What the till takes pays for upgrades, and upgrades open new departments that widen what the shop can sell.
The interest is in the loop rather than any single job, so the skill is knowing which shelf empties first and getting there before the queue does. The provider text says it plainly: keep an eye on the product levels. It runs at 800 by 600 on a phone or a desktop.
How to play
- Collect products from where they grow or are produced.
- Carry each product to its own department and stock the shelf.
- Check out the customers waiting at the counter.
- Spend the takings on upgrades and new departments.
Controls

| Mouse and left click | Move, as an alternative to the keys |
Tips
- Restock before the shelf runs out, not after. A customer at an empty shelf is money the till never sees.
- Put the first upgrades into whatever slows you down most, usually the walk between the produce and the counter.
