Optimization in the game shows variability based on store size and player expectations; smaller shops perform well, while larger, more complex stores may experience occasional slowdowns, pathfinding issues, and minor bugs. Although these problems are not game-breaking, they indicate that further optimization is needed.

- “Performance and polish vary depending on store size and player expectations.”
- “These issues are not game-breaking, but they signal that optimization still has room to improve.”
