That's a fun papa's games! Papa's Scooperia focuses a lot on precision and time management across its four stations.
Here are some top tips for getting perfect scores and managing your shop efficiently:
? Dough & Bake Stations (Precision & Timing)
Slow Scooping is Key: At the Dough Station, when dragging the scooper through the dough, move your cursor slowly and try to match the speed of the meter on the bin. This ensures a perfectly sized cookie dough ball. The same slow, deliberate movement applies to scooping ice cream at the Build Station.
Don't Burn the Cookies: At the Bake Station, watch the green bar next to the cookie plate. The moment it hits the white line (or when the bar starts blinking/turns a solid color), drag the cookie out immediately to avoid overbaking and losing points.
Upgrade to Alarms: Purchase the Oven Alarms as soon as possible from the Shop. They will flash or make a sound when a cookie is done, letting you focus on other tasks without constantly checking the oven.
? Build Station (Center & Distribution)
This is often the hardest station to perfect, especially with multi-scoop orders!
Center Your Scoops:
For a single scoop, try to drop the ice cream centered over the cookie.
For multiple scoops (2x or 3x cookies), the placement is critical. A good strategy for a triple is to place the middle scoop slightly higher or more centered first, then place the side scoops. They should all appear to be sitting evenly and centered on their respective cookies.
Even Topping Distribution:
For syrups and shakers (sprinkles, nuts), drag the container above the sundae and move it slowly and evenly from one side to the other.
Crucial: Stop pouring/shaking before the topping spills over the edge of the ice cream or cup. Even a tiny bit of spill can drop your score to 99%.
Placeable Toppings (e.g., Cherries, Wafers): These need to be placed in the exact requested location (center, left, or right) and in the correct order.
⏱️ Order & Flow (Time Management)
Manage Your Orders: On busier days, try to limit the number of open orders you are actively working on (maybe 2-3 at a time) to prevent one customer's Waiting score from dropping too low.
Prioritize Fast Tasks: If a cookie is about to be done baking, take it out of the oven before taking a new customer's order, as taking an order locks you into that station for a moment.
Lobby Decor is Important: Buy new Lobby Upgrades (wallpapers, floors, posters) and switch out your decor to match the current holiday. Holiday-themed items give you a huge bonus to your Waiting Score and keep customers happy while they wait!
Purchase Upgrades: In addition to alarms, consider upgrades that improve efficiency or quality, like the Automatic Ice Cream Scoop or tools that help with centering.
