The core route does not require a pass
No verified source says a paid pass is required to build the original cinema or reach the drive-in. Start with the beginner route and treat every purchase as optional.
Separate passes by what they change
- Customization: Custom Name and Custom Colors.
- Movement effects: Extra Speed and Low Gravity.
- Convenience: Self Serve Machines, More Workers, and Auto Collect.
- Cash speed: Double Money.
- Other optional access: VIP is listed, but its current benefits should be checked live.
Public game data describes Self Serve Machines as shortening lines and allowing more customers, Auto Collect as automatic money collection, and Double Money as doubling cash. Verify the live store before making a purchase because availability and prices can change.
Some owned effects can be toggled
The developer update log says owned Extra Speed and Low Gravity passes can be switched on or off in Settings. It also documents a separate NPC toggle. The developer does not explain whether disabling NPCs changes earnings, so this guide does not claim an income effect.
Check the live store before buying
- Confirm the benefit currently shown in the game.
- Check the current price rather than relying on an older article.
- Decide whether the pass changes progression, convenience, or appearance.
- Do not buy a vehicle or cosmetic expecting a verified income boost.
