The central activity is picking up toys and placing them in the correct section and shelf. Completing rows of correctly placed items grants points that can be used for upgrades.

- Balance speed upgrades with capacity upgrades based on your current play rhythm.

- Use the train after unlocking it to reach far aisles quickly.
