About

Recettear: An Item Shop's Tale is an indie RPG developed by EasyGameStation and published by Carpe Fulgur LLC, released on September 10, 2010. The single-player experience follows Recette Lemongrass as she manages an item shop located inside her home to repay a loan left unpaid by her father. Her life changes when Tear, a fairy companion, arrives and insists on helping with the business despite her initial reluctance. Players must decide how to acquire stock for the store, either by trading in town markets or venturing into the wild to defeat beasts. You also determine pricing strategies, design the shop's appearance, and plan methods to generate the funds Tear requires. Failure to meet financial goals results in living conditions that resemble a cardboard box rather than a proper home. The main story takes approximately 13 hours to complete, while including extra content extends playtime to around 25 hours. Those aiming for full completion can expect to spend about 48 hours exploring all aspects of the game.Read more
