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 will cut off jeff bezos face and wear it like a mask :3
This is one of those comfort games you can come back to time after time. I've been playing since 2013. It's cute and funny and like I said comforting.
Jogo muito bonitinho e divertido de tocar uma lojinha enquanto tenta pagar a "fada agiota". Tivesse Ptbr e suporte decente a widescreen recomendaria como o melhor do genero.

O jogo é bem fofo, é legal poder abrir a nossa própria loja e vender pelos nossos preços, achei a história fraca, porém, faz sentido para os eventos que vem a seguir
cute game
It's still fun for an 18 year old game.
I am amazed I like this game as much as I do. Its a quirky little fantasy world, where customers are loyal and shop keepers are fair. Game play is simple but highly addicting, the basic dungeon crawler system works quite well. But the shop is where the meat is, haggling is an obscure mechanic just obtuse enough to be interesting and a little frustrating without resorting to outright cheating. You can learn a customers patterns, desires and budget. But its never explicitly told to you, you just gotta figure it out. A more modern game would probably just leave it all in the hands of baby RNGJesus, and he's a baby. He can't hold ♥♥♥♥. Literally. I think that's the secret to Recettear, its simple. But intentionally designed from the ground up. Which makes for a great feeling game. Story is a B+ Its generic moe fantasy stuff, not a lot of depth or bite but the characters got a few chuckles out of me. If your someone who needs everything to be about the end of the world and all super serious, look else where. If you can tolerate some tropey anime cheese than this is a story for you. But be warned, the game is very difficult. I am almost 8 hours in and I've never made it past the third loan payment. Overall, a great game. I am happy to see its getting a remaster, sad that I got my hands on it literally the day before that was announced.
Incredibly charming fun game
好游戏 不仅是童年回忆 游戏本身的质量玩法和体量都很过关
Meu amigo, que jogo horrível!!! Fui nas análises positivas e fiquei me perguntando o tempo todo quando ele ficaria bom... ele não ficou... muito pelo contrário, que experiência péssima. Poderia escrever uma análise gigante citando uma penca de coisa que esse jogo não faz direito, mas vou ser direto e objetivo: -Gráficos mediocres: mesmo pra época, é ruim e ponto. Jogos de Nintendo DS conseguem ser mais bonitos que essa coisa, fora as imagens dos personagens fora de escala durante os diálogos... -Música fraca: horríveis e repetitivas, sério, pesquise a OST desse jogo no youtube e veja você mesmo. -Premissa e história sem inspiração: o jogo possui a única premissa de fazer dinheiro pra pagar a dívida do pai da menina... e é isso. -Gameplay repetitivo: você passa horas indo em dungeons, pegando loot e voltando pra loja pra vender. O que seria ok, já joguei bons jogos com a mesma premissa... mas aqui só é chato e repetitivo, principalmente por causa do combate horrível. -Péssimo combate: o combate é péssimo, sério. Veja uma gameplay no youtube e veja por si. Tem inimigo usando ataque fora do campo de visão, hitbox zoada, movimentação travada, etc. -Sistema de compra/venda tedioso: a mecânica central se baseia em mexer na porcentagem de lucros pra vender os itens pros NPCs... e é isso... horas e horas fazendo isso... Depois de 3 horas eu não aguentei essa tortura. Alguém me explica o porquê disso aqui estar tão bem avaliado, por favor. Quero meus 30 pila de volta :( .
