I Made a Fortune with My TCG Card Shop Simulator Strategy!

[@Mr_Fruit]

Sorry for the delay between episodes, but really appreciate all the engagement/love on this series. Glad you guys enjoy

[@kogden8110]

Fruit, you have to stop apologizing for doing absolutely nothing wrong xD

[@p_daddy8764]

don't be sorry enjoy the game at your pace/while the game develops

[@p_daddy8764]

way more enjoyable in my opinion if the youtuber is actually enjoying the game they are playing

[@mylesgagne836]

All of the included replies are valid. We are happy you are enjoying the game!

[@boydthames1460]

No worries would like to see more

[@bimboboggins]

i love this series! also fun fact- your electricity bill goes up when you leave the lights on even after the store closes. so now when i play, i turn the lights off at 9 and open packs in the dark like a little gremlin :)

[@jazakhan290]

The cut off with Mr Fruit getting hit with the pillow is hilarious lol

[@letheoberon]

I'd love to see you return to this occasionally! It's super fun to watch!

[@mountainliger9434]

@42:00 the single booster packs ate target are in the back by video games and tvs and such they mooved them from the front a couple years ago in most stores.

[@Mr_Fruit]

Ohh had no idea!

[@ravanatokisaki7548]

Oooh really? I’ll have to look next time.

[@Ryder42]

oh and if you do Fruit, don't feel bad about all the sorting and arranging of stuff, because (at least for me) id do the same thing, and it's verrrrrrrry satisfying to see everything on the shelves all nice and arranged

[@hissman5678]

I'm so glad this series is still going. Precious TCG shop. Oh, and of course, our beloved Mr. Fruit having a good time. We love to see it.

[@XWingMitch0]

To touch on your questions about the playable TCG portion and balance: The cards in this are based around monsters of the same name from the Mobile game Tetramon Monster Battles TCG developed by Sia Ding Shen. They also created the original Idle TCG Card Shop tycoon game and then OPNeon (Sia Ding Shens company it seems, The copyright on the bottom right of all in game cards, and Developer of the PC Simulator game) developed the 2nd Iteration of the Idle Card Shop Tycoon mobile game. So, these creatures, the developer, and the base game version itself have existed for some time. That's not to say they can just quickly port over the game mechanics, but they have a base to work from. Thanks for another great Vid Mr. Fruit!.

[@CatusMagus]

The running tally of net loss from opening all the packs was such a clever touch! 😂 Also, the piano montage of stocking shelves was (chef's kiss). 😩👌

[@GioLaud]

No shot!!! Mr. Fruit rippin REAL expensive cardboard packs in the video!? Insanity!!

[@LottaTrees]

Really didn’t expect to enjoy watching anybody’s gameplay of this game, but loving fruit’s! The edits to let us hear your thoughts and cuts to fully organized are appreciated, too

[@The_Real_C4]

Love seeing this series continue. When’s the real expensive cardboard shop opening?

[@vesves_4]

So happy for a new episode! Perfect way to chill after a really draining Monday at work. Loved the classical music stocking montage halfway through 😂 I am the same gamer. It has to LOOK nice, I can’t just half-ass my sim games even if the perfect organization helps nothing in the game itself.

[@hankthetank1449]

That bungie joke at the start killed me😂

[@Malaphor2501]

Oooo a mini episode of "Should I open it, or should I keep it sealed?" Fun fact, this game is based on a mobile game, that is actually based on a Tetramon the same devs also released for mobile. That's right, the Tetramon came first, and way back in like 2020.

[@wangchangbackup]

A friend of mine runs an MTG shop and for a while he was seriously considering getting rid of his storefront entirely because such a huge chunk of his profits came from just reselling singles online that the rest of his business was basically just supporting him getting an online shop set up.

[@xarviussilph4172]

In my experience, Legendary packs usually hit more frequently than the Destinies. Usually at least one $10 card every 2-3 packs

[@rocketfan86]

Sports card collector here. I know after the pandemic, lots of retail stores (Wal-Mart, Target, etc.) had issues with people buying loose packs or blaster boxes, getting/keeping the 'hits', and then returning the packs/boxes for a refund. I try to support the local card stores where I can still buy single packs and get to pick out which packs to purchase.

[@ryanturner5286]

These edits are absolutely amazing, been a while since I've watched but honestly loved this vid and was laughing out loud, especially the meme at 1:30 😂

[@forevertiredyt4642]

Not gonna lie, the clip of you in emperor garb with the music behind it and crazy color light will always make me laugh xD one of my favorite videos and out fits, 10/10

[@GioLaud]

Yess Mr Fruit coming out with so many bangers, this has maybe been the episode I've been waiting for the most!

[@walleyall5988]

Minecraft KZbinrs: So I did a little grinding off screen! Mr Fruit: Hold my sparkling water

[@shauntatroe]

Hey... hope this helps any. If u put one of the smelly spray tanks in the warehouse, it should reach through the wall & spray people as they walk in. U can put both in there but either way place it where ur work table is & it should b good.

[@ramblingrandle863]

the raid boss health bar before fruit got his by the pillow clearly signifies him as an absolute CHAD when it comes to EXPENSIVE CARDBOARD. Love the video Mr Fruit, keep it up!

[@kylelopez7631]

Fruit ever since covid, the target card area has been decimated. They also have vendors put them out, and people will wait for the packs they want for hours, lol. Source: I used to work there. I came in at 6 one day and left at 2 and there was a group of guys who waited my entire shift for the chance that the card lady would be there that day. Wild

[@FLYYLF]

Love the shop love THIS series LOVE MORE MR.FRUIT 🔥 💯 ❣️

[@randy1812]

I very much appreciate the level of editing in these videos. It shows how much Mr Fruit loves his craft and wants us to enjoy high quality content.

[@vengz1313]

Loving this series and was finally able to start my own shop. Still don't know what it is but it scratches an itch and is fun to watch and play. Looking forward to more

[@tinystar3010]

Definitely one of my favorite new series you're doing. And this episode just triggers all my dopamine buttons. My ocd loves organization and my creativity loves designing layouts and decorations.

[@andresdeferrari949]

Been looking forward to more expensive cardboard! Also love seeing card pack opening irl, would love to see more often

[@sweeperbot9747]

29:33 rhab jumpscare

[@remingtonlamey3464]

I couldn’t tell you why but using rob for the “wow” absolutely kills me every time. Love it fruit

[@epicleaf]

Love this playthrough! Also when you play with friends I love the party games you play like Mario party, jackbox, ttt, smash bros and stuff like that, I think a game that let's you guys interact with each other a ton as a group are my favorite And when you play solo stuff my favorite playthroughs are long videos where you have fun and chill while figuring out a game like the last spell, this game obviously, temtem swarm and magaloot and your nuzlockes and stuff. ALSO I really liked zoochosis, I don't know if other narrative games would work but the mystery and plot and the scary stuff really drew me in and I'd love to see more narrative games like that

[@dolphinpower1107]

Good to see this return and just after I spent a lot of money on expansive cardboard (Yugioh holds the remnants of my soul in its icey grip). Excited to see more especially in a 50 minute format.

[@ThePizzaDevourer]

really glad you're vibing with this game! super relaxing

[@mylesgagne836]

Dude you got legit cards to open! I'm so hyped. If you ever start doing like pack opening videos I'd be interested, I've always wondered what to look out for with pokemon cards and what people hunt for! I just got back into magic the gathering cards myself!

[@MicroOrganism]

That dramamine sketch was gold btw.

[@Grovenored]

Love this series - thank you, Mr Fruit! Now release an hour long tavern owner episode and all will be complete

[@joshstacheruk7372]

Loving these videos! If you are wanting to speed up grogress a little and make the game a little simpler, there are a ton of mods for the game! Things like being able to speed up time and auto store cards in storage. Might make a series of the videos simpler!

[@lumberlord69]

The let’s play Mr. Fruit vibes are IMMACULATE my guy thanks for blessing my Saturday o7

[@tony_sicily]

No worries on the delay Fruit! You could add mods or just hyper min/max the game to get XP and money the absolute fastest. But I’m here to watch you having fun playing a fun game. So whatever it takes for you to keep that then I support it!

[@natemathewson5200]

Hey, Fruit! I just graduated college with a Technical Writing degree and my senior proj. was to rewrite and redesign a bad set of board game instructions. If you ever pick that board game back up and get stuck on the instruction side of things- just put out the bat signal!

[@Steelscizor]

As someone who has bought/sold Pokemon cards as a side biz for almost 20 years now, hearing stories from someone who owns an IRL card shop definitely hits different.

[@noisepoIIution]

LOVE this series!

[@BigDaddyDorf]

Take your time brother. I’m here for it. Thank you for continuing the series

[@wawrinek]

another great episode of selling expensive cardboard, glad to see you having fun (even if your in-game luck for ripping packs is considerably worse than irl ones lol)

[@BirdmanG07]

Yay expensive cardboard! The comparison between your shop and adult entertainment got me good

[@bosschild78]

Love these videos. Gonna start playing this game, AND tavern manager simulator which I’d also love to see more episodes of

[@griffinwraf763]

New episode of my favorite series! Love you Fruit, keep having fun King! We gotta see that cost versus profit tracker again, that was GOLD!

[@andrewjohns3136]

I love these videos! So glad you keep doing them. I'm excoted to see the new updates as they come!

[@Arkbane]

Mr. Fruit, to make putting out cards easier you can right click the cards in the book and you will pick up multiple then you can place them on the table faster.

[@maxhable]

Happy to see another video! Solid content!

[@ShrockWPS]

Expensive CardBoard Baby!! My favorite up and coming Fortune 500 company

[@Ayzi]

Honestly loving watching these videos of the TCG, something about it just hits the spot😂 And well longer videos and more Fruit, win win win

[@Master_C614]

Now that you made it to the grind portion of the game you should check out some of the QOL mods available. Auto price set, hold more cards, faster card opening, and auto stock are some of my favorite mods that I can't play without.

[@xxJagMasterGxx]

Love the series Fruit, hope to see more! However if you get to sick when playing I don't blame you if you stop man. Put yourself first!

[@CrashbangXD]

These are just the most relaxing watch. I’m here for the long haul of Fruit falling into the rule of corporate overlord

[@ryden5189]

Oh man, I was just rewatching this series yesterday! What are the odds!?!

[@kogden8110]

15:04 well timed loud noise will always be funny

[@adrianalcala8857]

Been loving these vids & have been wanting much more! Thank you for letting us know why, take your time & enjoy the grind :)

[@gidkid100]

1:15 that cut away was hilarious 😂😂😂😂😂

[@TheJereBear]

Fruit, that cut seen I. The Dramamine section was ducking chefs kiss brother! Nice edit!

[@mr.noobtastic7476]

I’m so glad that this series is continuing!

[@leafgreen20cruz]

I love that art style on the thumbnail!!

[@keyanridgeway5639]

Yes fruit I’ve loved these videos so far, just so chill and fun, especially with my job being opening cards for people😂❤

[@grantbaltosser8086]

I've been lovng watching people play this game Fruit. I would love to see if you could pull some really expensive cards like a ghost card!

[@Ryder42]

Perfect timing Fruit, just sat down with food o7

[@finesstra]

lmaooo I mean if 1:13 is feeling weird I guess I gotta agree - totally unexpected edit - your videos continue to be an absolute treat

[@Bimmr]

I enjoy watching you play this game, but I'm mainly just commenting for engagement.

[@markdisisto3960]

I love this series, it’s so relaxing to watch at night, keep it up these are amazing!!!!

[@amethystcovette]

I love this series and the edition of the IRL expensive cardboard was fun

[@HaseoIX]

This gives enough dopamine for the next Mr. Fruit video 😅

[@Gyaat_Ohio]

Mr. Fruit I’ve been watching you for years now and have always enjoyed the content. Just wanted to say keep doing a great job :)

[@twinsuns2494]

The Fruit Empire grows ever stronger. Can't wait to see what Expensive Cardboard does next

[@ericslingerland5472]

can tell you from experience, having game rules made up and even having all the cards designed is way easier than programing it as a playable game. i was pretty surprised that was on the roadmap, when they could just make it its own separate digital tcg

[@LoopyBusiness]

I am loving card shop vids Fruit! Looking forward to more of 'em!

[@oinkwoof8378]

Love it! I wish I had that kind of organization skill and focus.

[@terifictaylor1076]

Glad to see people still make let's plays. Keep it up man!

[@bean_mochi5159]

Nice update! Fruit, get the auto set prices mod. It's a great quality of life mod that I feel doesn't make the game feel like cheating, it just saves a lot of time. I use it and it's a game changer. Also, yeah! Where's the Mr. Fruit plushie?!?!

[@TheOnlyDestroDragon]

By the end of this is I changed my review I gave at the beginning. Expensive Cardboard does in fact sell card.

[@Nannersuitluke]

coming to show my “CardToonz” card shop love for when you unlock his plushie haven’t seen yet. Still watching late but missed the Froot man and had stop in to show some love

[@bonkatonka89]

The edit with the money spent running had me and my husband yelling at you through the tv 😂😂😂 love the series

[@leahtuten1387]

Loving this series Fruit, looking forward to the next update

[@nicksforth]

20:00 Xandert leaving room for in case he finds a better shop😂

[@ravanatokisaki7548]

I WAS SO EXCITED WHEN I SAW THIS IN MY SUB LIST I WASNT SURE YOU WERE GONNA UPLOAD ANY MORE OF THEM OMG I LOVE EXPENSIVE CARDBOARD SO MUCH ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@Bingy780]

We're so back. Thanks Mr fruit for continuing this series even though it doesn't perform super well.

[@I0_Invictus_0I]

We appreciate you powering through with the meds just to play this for us, thank you Fruit!

[@SapphireFox37]

When you’re putting merchandise on the shelves and the piano music starts…~perfection~ 😘

[@UNSCCaptainNeal]

I was waiting patiently for this video. Thank you. I will continue to wait patiently for the next video Mr. Fruit. Keep up the good work. Love the videos. 🥰🥰

[@kagaclipse]

More Mr fruit outtakes!😂

[@RaphaelAlmeida-qo1ul]

How I feel when Mr. Fruit drops the "My TCG Card Shop Simulator" Content ----> 1:14

[@romanx4307]

Yessss full fruit visuals 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉. 1:15

[@sirbeam9500]

Yes, I love this series, Fruit. Hope your doing well

[@mariolaguardia1461]

Awesome video! Loving the series!

[@jasonmackay7898]

These videos are so chill and cozy. Keep them up Fruit!

[@Lambwarrior]

Yes! Glad to see this come back!

[@barnyoh]

Really enjoying these videos, looking forward to the next one.

[@finesstra]

Oh my gosh, the fact that you put in the time to find out how bad you were in the hole with those Destiny cards....that HURT.

[@Hyperion-uv6nq]

Editing is on point as always 👌

[@kylerogers7633]

My shop is level 48 and I gotta be real with you chief, sitting there and opening packs for 3 times longer than I'm open every night is getting old pretty quick. Game is great, but is a couple core updates away from me enjoying the end game
