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.

Capitalism is delicious.
when I come back to this game it's for the peaceful item shop management element and maybe the cute lightweight story. Be cautious if (like me) you don't usually love mixing adventure combat into your simulation games — if you go in with a completionist mindset you WILL want to deal with the dungeons eventually — but at least you can do a lot of prep on the item store side to make the dungeoneering a lot easier if you want. And I think you can finish the core plotline without any dungeon stuff, though you won't meet all the characters that way. that said, this is one of very few games that I'll spend hours doing solo action combat in this style. The other elements hook me enough and failing a dungeon is forgiving enough that I just roll with it.
this game ♥♥♥♥♥
The game has a simple design. Run a store and then when needed go exploring and fight monsters to get more crafting materials and items to sell. You have so many days to make so much money in order to save the shop/house. If you don't then you fail and you have to do it all again. I enjoy the simplicity of it.
I love the characters, the game play and the concept of this game. And it feels easy to want to play again and again.
Why does this soundtrack go so hard
Graphismes qui ne manquent pas de charme, idées assez bien trouvées, c’est cependant avec regret que je le déconseille. Le jeu est une éternelle boucle ou votre principal ennemi est le moment ou vous devez payer la facture. Essayez la démo pour vous faire une idée, mais pour moi c’est un jeu super sympa qui fini assez vite pas être lassant.
