Attractiveness

AllThingsHow held 250 early, then dropped to 175 when garbage sat out for two nights, and a clean restored it. The Mirage Projector cost GitM 400 on Rock Bottom and needs a night to charge. Starting a day at 1,000 is the Shiny achievement, which 1.6% hold as of Oct 31, 2026. Prime Real Estate adds a daily customer.

Display tips

GitM saw household goods bring household buyers, and food bring food buyers. TreyexGaming, in the playtest, found pure water attracts an Upper Levels wholesaler, and a best-quality item wealthier customers. The case does not work on Day 1 with the tutorial on. And never show contraband.
