About
Recettear is the story of an item shop, the girl who lives in it, and the fairy who turned her life upside down. Recette Lemongrass finds herself in charge of an item shop built into her house, in order to pay back a loan her father took and then skipped out on - and Tear, her newfound fairy "companion", won't take no for an answer! As Recette, you have to decide how you'll get your stock - either through playing the markets in town or going out into the wild with an adventuring friend and thrashing beasts until they give up the goodies - how much to sell things for, what the shop should look like, and how to best go about getting the money Tear needs to pay off the loan. If you can't come up with the money... well, hope you like living in a cardboard box.

[b]Recommendation[/b] Cute little game about running an item shop to pay off the crushing debt foisted upon your estate. The (optional) dungeon-running side of the game is extremely threadbare, but the actual shopkeeping mechanics are deep and interesting enough to carry the game on their own. If your tolerance of anime cutesiness is high, this one is absolutely worth your time. CAPITALISM, HO! 6.5/10
A merchant sim at the top of its class and an extremely punishing dungeon adventure game at the same time - where you never even really need to go into the dungeon. That's right - you can play the entire storyline just trading between the guild and selling at an appropriate profit in your shop. Currently, and usually on a steep sale. If you haven't played it then you probably don't know there is a void in your heart it means to fill. CAPITALISM, HO!

This is just a really fun, simple, JRPG-style game with the hook being you are a shop keeper and need to dungeon dive to get good items to sell in your store. A bit of inventory management, friends to make, and NPCs to roll with. Highly recommended. Wish I could get it working on my Steam Deck...
你是為成熟的冒險者了,所以我東西都要賣你120%~125%。
Combat is clunky and unsatisfying and bosses aren't even close to being scaled to the rest of their dungeon. It's ridiculous that I can skate through four floors of regular enemies only to lose virtually all of my spoils to a boss that takes one point of damage per hit. Recommendation to avoid.
Bought the game for real after playing it for years. My personal comofort game. It's peak.
