We'll see how many times this review will flip back and forward, bad decisions followed by good decisions followed by bad decisions again

It's not Nintendo

Great nostalgia from PS1 days

It's good for what it is. But it needs a storyline, some meat to the bones.
Currently it's mostly just repetition with no real meaning to anything.
Get money, haggle, spend money on stuff to use to make potions to get money.
The reputation doesn't do anything really, you do get "good" and "bad" customers based on it, but it really doesn't matter whichever way you go.

But yeah, I'd like to see a storyline, get some more meat on it. Perhaps it can differ based on reputation, also currently there's no real negative aspect to just ramming through a bunch of days, it's just a glorified save function, so maybe quests or something that makes the days have a bit more meaning to them, could also go with the route of seasonal ingredients and days can affect it.

The garden also needs a bit of working on, maybe make it so you can affect it via planting specific things or even using potions, currently it's quite lackluster and simply just a way to guarantee the player receives some ingredients on a daily basis. Which once you have enough money to get going, and the fact the days don't really punish you, can be either completely useless or you just ignore everything else and just harvest your garden, go sleep, harvest, sleep, harvest, sleep.

But for what the game is, it's enjoyable and has promise. But it for sure needs more content and more.. I guess reasons to do or care about things.
