Every Tube Dude business in unlock order, from Gary's to the DMV

The full list of Tube Dude's 57 businesses with the level each one hires you, its boss and its sales counter, plus what each kind of street means for your play.

Published

Tube Dude keeps you employed at 57 different businesses, and the home screen keeps count with its "Now hiring" line. Here's the full roster in the order the game hands it out, with notes on how the crowd changes from one street to the next.

How the hiring works

The first six levels are handmade, one business each: Gary's Discount Motors, Tony's Pizza, the Mattress Mega-Sale, Dev's Fix-It Phone Kiosk, Rosa's Taco Nova Truck and Taxman Express. From level 7, a new business hires you on every third level (7, 10, 13 and so on) until the last one arrives at level 157. The levels in between send you back to places you already know, picked so the same storefront doesn't come up again and again, with your five newest gigs turning up more often than the old ones.

The number in bold is the level where that business first hires you. The word in capitals is what its sales counter says.

Levels 7 to 52

Levels 55 to 103

Levels 106 to 157

Most bosses greet you with a one-liner of their own on your first day, before telling you how many sales they need. King Kurt at Mattress Kingdom has strong feelings about your old job with Brenda, and Doris at the DMV hands you form 27-B.

Every street has its own crowd

Businesses don't just look different. Each one draws its own mix of customers, and that changes how a shift plays.

Times of day differ too. Night shifts debut at level 47 at Clip Joint Barbers. After that, night only comes up at businesses that open late, such as the laundromat, the bowling alley and the wedding chapel. HODL Corner, Mic Drop Karaoke, Madame Zora, Hollow Manor and the Boo-tique only ever trade at dusk or after dark. Iron Gym, Holly's Tree Lot and Powder Day Ski Rental often come with falling snow, which is just for looks, and the gym, the tree lot and the fireworks tent never get rain.

Finding a business again

Tap All levels on the home screen to see every level you've unlocked. Each button has a color swatch matching that business's tube, and hovering or reading it with a screen reader names the business, so you can find your favorite boss and replay a shift there. For the hazards that join these streets as you climb, see businesses, hazards and bonus rounds, and if a car lot or a jogger-heavy gym is costing you stars, how to earn three stars has a plan.

The DMV is waiting at level 157. Clock in and start working your way there.
