Why is it that you have a certain price for expanding the store in RS, but in BS and FS, the price is much more? Generally 50,000 + coins more. Especially with items selling slower in BS, it seems counter-intuitive. And in FS, enlarging the store is tied to goals for a much larger shop than in BS or RS. Thanks.

Your daily bonus is more in Bakery Story than Fashion Story. I think you also earn more money per hour in Bakery Story than Fashion Story. I don't play Restarunt Story so I can't really comment on that one.

The Fashion Story expansions cost approximately the same, I think, as Bakery Story, though I'm not positive, because I can't remember if the expansions are the same size. But I'm pretty sure I earn a ton more coins in RS than in Bakery Story, and all of us who play both know that in RS, stock sells quicker. I'm not sure what you mean about a daily bonus. The only thing I can think of is the coin you get when logging into the game, but that's just based on what was sold since you were last there.

Me too, I have been playing for more than 2 years, seen people talk about "daily bonus" many times here, but never knew what it is.

Well, there's a lot more dishes with higher coin counts in BS, so you can probably make money faster, even if the food sells slower. I've never done a strict comparison.

I get a daily bonus in FS2 and CS, and DS when I played that, but never noticed one here or in RS or FS. (android)

Oh...I see, that reminds me, I got daily login bonus from pet shop story and dragon story, but no, never even once in BS.

Everyone gets a daily bonus on bakery story. You get a pop up on iOS letting you know how much. You don't get a pop up on android but you still get the bonus. Try closing it just before reset then restarting just after reset. You'll notice a difference. It'll be more on some days than others as it goes through 4 stages of bonus. There's day 1 that is usually around 30,000 coins. Then up to day 4. That is often as much as 100,000-140,000 coins. I think it all depends what level you are on though. Hope this helps and assures that iOS and android are treated the same. Regarding the bonus anyway.

When they first released RS and BS in 2010, most of the RS dishes were 2 coins and BS were 4 coins. Decorations and expansions in BS were twice that of RS, as there was more profit. Then, after about a year of lying to people in the description when downloading that there would be weekly updates when there were none, they decided to do weekly updates. They made all dishes 4 coins but kept with expansions being twice as much in BS. Then they doubled the cost to make dishes in BS, giving leas profit, but still kept the expansions being twice as much in BS.

I actually tried that once, several months ago, after someone said the same here on the forums. Like I said, I only tried it once, so it's more than possible I just messed it up, but I still didn't see a bonus. But you've inspired me to try again! (if I remember to)

Anyone?

Because...well...because...erm...oh! I know! To provide balance to the economy of the game and to provide a fun and engaging experience that everyone can enjoy for a long time.

:p

There was a time when the daily bonus was significantly (and boy do i mean significantly) less for android users than for ios users. There was a longish thread about it too. I'm not sure whether the bonus increased or not, but android users really do get a daily bonus.

I've memorised the standard response to everything that ails and fails in the games, you see. The "fun and engaging experience" bit is new. It was added on this year i believe. I thought it was a great addition. :)

The reply to one of my questions on FS was something about we don't want to give things away....and that was just asking why they don't have monthly updates like we have here in BS and RS. And in Fashion Story, since every outfit (except for two, that I know of), consists of four items, you have to purchase 2 extra catalog slots in order to not have one of your orders be half an outfit. (Say, shirt and skirt, but no pants or purse, something to that extent).

But watching my stores the past week, I DO think I'm making more money in Bakery Story, granted, I spent more in RS because I had to buy more counters, so that set me back a total of 100k coins, but I think I've made possibly three times in BS what I've made in RS in the last week and a half, I think. I wasn't paying too much attention to the cost of the food, to see which game charges more for food.

I hope this question doesn't sound snotty, because I really don't mean for it to be, but: Why should they be the same? They're different games.
