Capitalism, Ho!

Game has been translated from Jap to Eng and just released like this Sat, and is very much talked about on a lot of sites, including 4chan.

I don't really know how to describe it. The user interface is almost like a visual novel, but much more interactive. Basically you play this game from a shop's point of view, buying stuff and selling for a prtofit, or perhaps going into dungeons to find better stuff for more moolah.





It's quite addictive, and I know I suck at it. Who else plays it?

Yeah it's quite cute. And gameplay is rather addictive. However, the game can be a little tough if you do not do some research. Lol.

I am planning to restart my game after realising that I am doing some things wrong.

I played the demo and just downloaded the game today :D

Apparently it's good to sell at 100%~110% for just pin bonus for merchant levels in the beginning. I'll probably learn more as I go :V

My findings:
Housewives like to barter. 125% is my sweet spot.
Lolis are CHEAP. They really won't buy much above 500 pix.
Guild Merchant likes about 125-130%
Alluette is a BIG SPENDER. I managed to squeeze 155% out of her so far.
Regular Man spends about 2000-3000 pix.
Old Man spends quite a lot too. ;3

Just managed to scrape 80k pix with 10k to spare... orz

Week 4 is 200k pix. *headwalls*

Don't worry about restarting your game, if you can't pay the debt, it will restart for you but things like your items will carry over, so you will be able to finish the game.
Also loving this game, as I was a fan of Chantelise, which they also made, I was surprised to see this on Steam for sale along with those other sites, amazing game, those debts get super hard to pay off though... (Trying to do it without losing once >_>)

Finished the Japanese version one before, so I'm trying to see if I can pull off a one-time complete game too.

Still haven't made the archer elf girl appear orz

This. I've sold stuff to her below cost price and she still complains on how expensive they are. If you are too poor don't visit, ho.

Anyway, I've read that a better way to play the game is to build up reputation and levels first. Then those darn lolis will be a lot more willing to shell out those pix as well, along with everyone else.

The first time she came to the store, she requested for a Udon Noodles (or something), base price 2300 pix.

I offered her 110%. She rejected.
Just for fun, I lowered it to 101%. STILL TOO EXPENSIVE!

And then she broke my Just Combo. orz

I've offered to sell her items at 90% cost price so that I can maintain my Just Combo, and she still left. >:

I've resorted to stocking cheap versions to prepare for her impromptu requests.

Yes, a thread! I don't think I've ever been as addictive to a game as this one;_; I love it so much.


400k item what.

I've only played the demo and I have a stupid question. Is it possible to go on through the game without going to the dungeons? My crummy pc lags whenever I go dungeon-ing. ._.

Disable the effects in the settings? Find the custom.exe and find what works for you.

I lagged also, but in the settings, I just lowered the fps to 30 and lag went away, maybe try that, or lower it more if you have to.

Is it possible to finish the game with 1 loop?

The furthest I got is 140k/200k on the 4th week... its so hard but restarting after failing to pay the debt makes it way easier.

Here are some guide I found in the Recettear forum.
