Play as Makoto Hayakawa, a college student spending her summer behind the counter of a small-town convenience store, in a colorful world inspired by early 1990s Japan. Your days are shaped by simple, tactile actions. You stock shelves, tidy displays, and prepare the store for customers, not to optimize numbers, but to settle into a comforting rhythm. Between tasks, you explore the store and its surroundings, notice tiny details, and connect with regulars whose lives gently intertwine with yours. Through branching conversations and meaningful choices, your interactions shape relationships and reveal intimate stories of a close-knit neighborhood.
