You also have to fight off thieves and thugs that might raid your isles.  😄 

That concept does have potential for a real game.  I'm imagining going down the isles catching shoplifters and treating them as if we are under martial law.  😛

No idea about the context of this post.  So, the first thing that came to mind is I would probably buy it just for the shell and use it for my own games.

I remember scavenging 2600 commons and Genesis sports titles for shells.  A dollar a shell isn't too terrible 🙂

And in the game you also have to prevent the dollar tree from burning down!

 

Funny you should mention that, I remember reading a newspaper article a few years ago about a woman who was arrested for burning down a Dollar Tree store because she could not get a shopping cart.  It was before Christmas and the whole strip mall burnt down and with it and dozens of people's jobs went up in smoke too.  Sad.

I've got it!  I figured it out!

Dollar Tree employees are handed that cartridge once hired.  They have to go home and use it.  Once inserted and turned on, it zombifies them into real Dollar Tree employees.  Full of repeating short advertisements with annoying music and repeated animations, tests, etc.
