Free Android strategy game
Screenshots
Shopping Mall 3D is a free strategy game for Android in which you build up and manage a series of strip mall stores. You’ll sell everything, from fast food and groceries to toys and clothing. Build up multiple stores as you work toward a monopoly over services in this virtual mall.
The pick-up-and-deposit mechanic used in Shopping Mall 3D is a popular new way to develop Android games. Try Papa’s Freezeria To Go! or Diner Dash for similar retail-themed fun.
Multitasking master
Keep your cool as you manage numerous stores within the mall. Each store requires your constant attention. Shopping Mall 3D quickly becomes a game of deciding where your priorities lie. You'll be able to hire staff for each store, which certainly helps to keep money flowing in and customer satisfaction rising. Your staff won't be able to do nearly as much as you, so you'll still be the driving force of each new, exciting enterprise.
Pay to play, in a different way
Shopping Mall 3D functions on a pay-to-play mechanism but with in-game currency. This currency is generated by the success of each of your previous in-game endeavours. Each additional store you purchase and build will generate more money than the last. The last few stores cost considerably more to purchase than your first one. You can use in-app purchases to top up on in-game currency to progress faster.
Graphics and performance
Like many similar, small Android games, Shopping Mall 3D features smooth graphics and well-made assets. The game's mechanics work well, and each store has slightly varied effects and responses to your character's interaction. The game functions well on Android version 4.4 and up. Although, you could potentially run it on older versions with a minimal performance impact.
Fast-paced strategy game
Generally, with small Android strategy games, you're playing one level at a time. Sometimes, there are numerous objectives, but it's still reasonably easy to keep track of everything. Shopping Mall 3D takes the usual split-level progression mechanic of mobile gaming and turns it on its head.
In this game, you have to keep track of each new venue you purchase, ensuring that it's running smoothly and operating efficiently while still taking the time to check on all your previous venues.
