this has officially made "shopping simulator" one of my top favorite game genres!! i love going on mundane adventures!! so much! i had so much fun playing it, the art style and cute little 3d bubbles are so adorable, it's such a charming game with a lot of personality!
some spoilers below!
i'll have to admit it took me awhile to "finish" this game, i haven't even 100%'d all of the phone numbers! i did my best at exploring stuff on my own, and, rather embarrassingly, after 2 hours of trying finally opened up a guide and realized. i could've climbed the chain wall this entire time?!?!?!? oh boy. not to mention when i followed the recipe i thought i was supposed to talk to an adult right after collecting the items because i was told to! i spoke to the grown ups and realized i.. should probably pay first. 100% realistic child simulator i love it. at least i got the ending and filled in everything in the pockets menu, so it's still a success!
