During gameplay in Papa's Scooperia , beginners often make several mistakes that lead to low scores and dissatisfied customers. The most common mistake is overcooking or undercooking the cookies, due to not paying attention to the timer at the Dough Station. To fix this, prioritize baking the cookies first and either turn on the timer alarm or watch the clock to take them out at the right time. Another mistake is scooping the ice cream in the wrong position at the Build Station, resulting in a low Build Score; the solution is to carefully center the scoop on the cookie and place each scoop slowly and precisely. Additionally, many players tend to pour syrup and sprinkle toppings unevenly, making the dish less visually appealing. The advice is to drag the mouse in a straight line and release the toppings one by one, instead of dropping them all at once.

Another common mistake is poor time management, causing customers to wait too long and lowering the Waiting Score. To address this, multitask effectively: while one batch of cookies is baking, you can scoop ice cream or take orders from other customers. Beginners also often forget to prioritize demanding customers like Closers, significantly reducing their overall score. When you see them arrive, handle their order first or at least start baking their cookies immediately. Finally, many players are slow because they don't upgrade their shop, leading to time-consuming operations. Buying a cookie timer, a faster oven, or upgrading the Build Station will help you make dishes more accurately and efficiently.

By recognizing and correcting these mistakes, you will quickly improve your score, serve customers better, and easily achieve more Perfect days in Papa's Scooperia.
