I will be pruning my friends list in the new year. If we haven't spoken or played together in a while or if I can't recognize your username because you change it every 2 weeks, you will likely be removed. If I make a mistake, please accept my apologies and add me again.
A lovely doujin game, part strategy, part tycoon, part dungeon crawler. You play as Recette Lemongrass, a clueless young girl who is given 4 weeks to pay off a loan her father took and disappeared with. You take over his shop where you can buy and sell various items to earn money. You can buy and resell items from the marketplace, or from people or you can go and do dungeons to get items without having to pay for them. The idea of the game is to earn a profit while keeping your customers happy so that they will return for repeat business. The game gradually introduces gameplay mechanics until you realize that there is a fairly deep game hiding behind the cute exterior presentation.
Don't be put off by the Japanese style, the Anime look or the fact that it's made in Flash. This is the reason we play games... to discover new and wonderful experiences that can be had through this medium. I thought it was worth full price, but it's definitely worth getting in a sale.
An absolutely wonderful game, one of the best indies I've ever played. It's a charming old school adventure/puzzle solving game, beautiful artwork, lovely music and you can see it's made with love.
