The game has two cycles per day. The first cycle allows the user to purchase their supplies for the day. Once the user has selected their supplies, the game will run the simulation. The second phase of the day is the counting mini game. The user must select the amount of money they made by selling your lemonade. If they fail to correct the amount, they will not get the money for the day.
Sales depend on the weather, so be sure to notice the forecast for the next day! Also, be aware that lemons do go bad, so don't hold onto them too long.
Occasionally, random events will occur giving you extra resources or removing more resources than normal. Try it out and see how much you can make!
