How to gain a high score
*spoilers*
Posted: July 28, 2009 at 06:02
The first time I played this game, I didn't really put much
thinking into stratagies on gaining a high score. I
just wanted to get to the end of the game and see what
upgrades there was throughout. For those of you that
have played it through once already, you would have noticed
that some of your upgrades disappear when you move from
London to Paris then from Paris to New York.
These upgrades do return and are still fully upgraded when
they return (the glitter machine and the branding machine
etc....).
Second time round I started to
think more stratigically. I started out by trying to
better my score in the very first level. Skipped the
tutorial and served each customer one by one. Not many
points gained. So I then served two customers thier
perfumes at the same time and my score increased. This
only works on the first couple of levels, cause after that
speed counts for everything. (If you can still serve
two customers at the same time quickly you get a small
bonus)
The real score gain came when you
mix your own perfumes and have upgrades for the glitter
machine, then the branding machine and then the gift
machine. At first I thought that I would just mix the
perfumes to keep the speed fast, but once you have the
upgrades to the machines for red, yellow, and blue you
really don't need the fast choice, you can mix the perfumes
to gain more profit and choose average or even slow.
Then add something to every bottle you sell. If you
get the chance to do so add more then one thing. It
does not matter if the customer asks for it or not they will
take it and you will get more profit. When you get the
bottled perfumes always buy as many as the most expensive
ones your budget will allow (don't forget you need your
upgrades) and add as much as you can to each bottle
and give the most expensive ones to customers who have the
question marks above thier heads. When you have the
table in the middle always make sure that you have a fully
loaded expensive bottle to give to a customer with a
question mark. That includes the glitter, branding and
gift wrap (bow), so you can give them it immediately to gain
the most profit. when you have the final four
customers in the shop keep everyone waiting while you fully
load each of thier bottles to gain an extra boost at the
end. (use the flower to keep the most impatient one/s
happy)
You also get bonus' for serving the
already bottled perfumes in a row, if you get for example
six customers that want bottled perfume and one that you
have to mix yourself, keep the one you have to mix for
yourself waiting (get their order ready, just don't give it
to them yet) and give out all of the bottled perfumes first,
you will notice X1, X2, X3 etc.. as you give them to the
customers.
Lastly, you need to be fast,
speed counts for bonus tips and the faster you can get an
order ready and give it to the customer the more money you
will get.
If tomorrow never comes, why do we get older?
