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.

After failing the first 2 attempts, I went online and read a guide, things made much more sense and I managed to clear the story. Though graphics are outdated, but still a fun concept and game. (save file says it took 17hrs to beat)

经营内很难有一直玩下去的。以前就玩过开罗出品。这款一直没通关哈哈哈哈
以前玩過,現在玩也還算不錯 不過迷宮(地城)、合成的部分比較不太好, 迷宮能帶回的東西數量有限,掉在地上的材料+0~+4要撿起來才知道,如果包包滿的話就會浪費時間在丟丟撿撿 而二級以上的合成所需的材料數量太多,只有在前期有機會合一級的幾件來用,再來就直接穿商店貨了 當然如果願意農的話,ENDGAME應該還是會改穿高強化的合成裝備 單純以開店賺錢為目標的話,甚至不太需要刷迷宮,比起花時間走迷宮開箱,直接買市場/公會貨回來賣還比較划算
A simple, enjoyable game with tons of replay value. Great for some simple skill use while playing something relaxing.
Very niche game. Like most people I came here off a ssethtzeentach video to see what it's like to play it myself. The Storymode is quite short but every character has their silly little story. The gameplay is challenging and even for a first time playthrough you can manage to beat the game without going broke.
I love this game so much but it's just old. I wish we could get this remade to work on newer hardware. I don't care about any improvements or quality of life updates. If this was made to run on windows 11 or portable handheld gaming pc's like the steam deck, I would put over 1000 hours in this, make an entire Youtube collection, and probably donate more money that I can afford on close to minimum wage to keep the project going, or work with the team to learn how to built or improve this alongside them. This game is one of a kind and needs to have a future. Heck, even making a new Recettear 2 that isn't the same but similar enough would be amazing and life changing.
Not a long game, but one that I recommend highly! I really enjoyed the main and side stories, and the core mechanics were fairly forgiving with lots of room to dig in deeper if I wanted. Just a fantastic game!
