I’m thinking of buying some business cards. I don’t know why, as I don’t know what the heck I’m selling. You can see my wordsmanship is pretty stodgy. I’ve had some cards in the past just for the pure novelty of it. I’m thinking of offering my photography skills as a service. But before those business cards can happen, a business website and accompanying email are a necessity, and my enthusiasm has already drained.

Sticky Business lets you dive in with everything set up for you. Your job in the game is to create, print, and mail out stickers to complete your online orders. Just when you think there’s already a specific job or life simulator game out there, a new form of normcore arrives. But Sticky Business doesn’t get too distracted by its own world of e-commerce.
The first task you’ll complete is designing a sticker using the shapes, logos and animal templates available to you in the creation tool. Whatever you make, your first order will consist of stickers with that particular design you just created, which you’ll then have to pack securely using paper and other filling.
My initial design consisted of a doughnut and a fish. But the next day, with a few extra inventory slots to fill on the new-yet-barren website, I added some extra stickers, including a plant with a cartoon skull at the top. It was my homage to Plants vs Zombies, I guess. The available templates are sufficiently plentiful to get you going, but limited enough to force you to be creative. Printing out your stickers, managing your inventory and packing up your orders is incredibly easy, with simple clicks saving you the hassle of dragging and dropping.
