On the whole, the game is much more nuanced than its predecessors. However, the pacing problem remains, as the storyline wrapped itself up before I'd gotten most of the characters or even half the collectables. Completionists be warned: I finally ended up uninstalling the game before completing the Catalog when I found weeks(real-time) of faithful playing, long after I'd completed every other part of the Catalog, did nothing to spawn a job or any hint of how to obtain the last Collectable.

This game is amazing! I downloaded the game after playing hungry heart diner. And as expected, I was not disappointed by anything. It had what I wanted, especially the relaxing music. I like how it changed with the seasons, really added a soothing nostalgic feeling to it. Also you can hear noises from the background, like kids playing and laughing (very nice detail) which really felt like you're there, it reminds me of my hometown. Definitely worth a try!!

Like the previous Showa Candy Shop games, and all Gagex games if I'm being honest, this one is absolutely phenomenal! The art style is adorable, gameplay relaxing, and the storyline(s) told through the letters really tugs on heart strings (I'm not completely done yet but I have a few guesses where it's going...) I also absolutely love and appreciate how completely optional ads are, and how any pop-up ads are always compensated with some in game coins or such. Keep up the fantastic work!
