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.

I don't have many hours logged into this game but I have had it since I was in university. It is the IDEAL shopkeeper simulator. Run a shop, raid a dungeon, sell the blood and gore of your enemies to the populace. Granted, the dungeons are terrible, the enemies look worse than a US Christmas claymation special but ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ there's heart here. I've been dying for some game in recent years to mimic the style or love this game had and the closest I've gotten to was Potionomics. Give this game a go, you'll love it. CAPATALISM, Ho!

[h1]Played on Linux via Proton Hotfix[/h1] Recettear is a 2007 japanese doujin shop management game, and one of the most influential of all time. It follows the [strike]tragic[/strike] story of Recette, a very young girl who one day wakes up and finds out she is being forced to pay for her father's huge debt to a shark loan. Then begins her saga of [strike]child slavery[/strike] trying to pay the ever increasing weekly debt. The gameplay loop is pretty fun, with you having to juggle time, money and materials. Unlike Moonlighter, another shop management game, the actual shop management is the most important part, as failing to pay the weekly debt means game over. The dungeon aspect is important and pretty fun too, with many resources only available when entering the dungeon. In this regard, combat is probably Recettear's weakest point. Moonlighter did an outstanding job with their animations and combat gameplay inside the dungeon. 9/10 [strike]f*ck[/strike] capitalism, ho!
This game is so good it's a mystery it doesn't have a remake or a sequel
Best capitalist game ever... and it's not even close.
My dad went out for a vanilla coke and never return.
Yayifications !!!!!!!
It's the game that radicalized me.
Recettear 100% Full Completion Review Score: 10/10 Recettear is a game about a young girl with a parent who leaves her with a mountain of debt and has to repay it all or face losing her home, fortunately with the help with a young business savvy fairy she is able to convert her home in a shop to help make some money to pay off the debt and in the process becomes one of the most cunning and business savvy protagonists the JRPG world has ever known. All joking aside Recettear is basically a dungeon crawling and shop management game that revolves around it's New Game+ mechanic, essentially your supposed to lose the first time you try to pay off the debt, it's technically possible to do it in one go, i managed it once, but it's pretty rare, instead your supposed to lose so you get introduced to the New Game+ mechanic that let's you keep all your Heroes, stats, shop upgrades etc. so that your next run will be even easier, but the game doesn't end after you pay off the debt in fact that's only the beginning, for once you do pay off the debt you enter free mode that allows you to keep playing, keep collecting heroes and keep upgrading your shop. Overall it's a very solid game that has good strong gameplay and mechanics with endearing characters a good story and overall just a really fun little addicting game to play and if you like shop keeper or dungeon crawling games you will definitely like this game but as always Its.. Up.. To.. You, and i'll leave it at that. Capitalism Ho! (^_−).
好想尖叫怎么会有压迫感这么强的休闲游戏,一周还一万第二周还三万进货商还不补货开店客人纯随机不想买掉头就走太现实了,单价赚个30%都嫌贵太不现实了,警惕高利贷套路贷变成精灵帮你赚钱实则打黑工逼你还债。还有不能用鼠标按键改不了很累手,老游戏了如果是情怀可以新玩家感觉不是很建议,但是开店+讨价还价+rpg+迷宫的玩法我很喜欢,如果有重置应该会再尝试 。有恋爱就更好了(图穷匕见
