When you use the amulet to teleport out, it costs gold
IIRC 200 for the first floor, 300 for the second.
LOL you are amazing thanks - and i was able to adjust prices! Thanks this is WAY more enjoyable now. Oh, and the music, especially night in town?! O M G it's absolutely beautiful I could listen to it on repeat for hours
I could imagine the game being much less enjoyable when you can't access half the gameplay lol
the music in this game is so chill and
PC/MAC has DRM free if you buy from GoG or Humble
so you can force the game on your friends too >:3
Yeah I was so frustrated but now it all clicks and the game is SERIOUSLY addictive.
2 hours in and I highly recommend this game to anyone curious, if you like: Shop Keeper games, zelda dungeons, loot, town building, pixel (?) graphics and wonderful music.
How had I never heard of this game until 2 days ago?!
To toss junk like vines in is my best guess. There doesn't seem to be a "discard" option.
I played this 5 hours straight today, and I only stopped because I NEEDED a break lol. The gameplay loop is very addictive.
I did find it strange that I couldn't fight the first boss again after defeating it
Quick inventory tip, if you press R2 while your cursor is on an item it will jump straight to that items notebook page so you can quickly and easily check its value. Extremely useful when setting up things to sell in the shop, I was manually scrolling and looking for the items for hours before I discovered this...
Also make use of the wishlist feature so you know what items to not sell!
edit: I LOVE how the town music changes when you walk up to the various shops

The town building element is pretty light, even lighter than ever oasis
you unlock new buildings to open in the town & upgrade your own shop, thats the extent of it
Well sorta you pay to have ppl move in that offer various services. The buildings are all run down and get filled in as you add more ppl from the town board. Not sure if there is more to it than that later on, i'm still really early
sell one of the items through the mirror it will show you the lowest value for whatever item you put in.
Spent a few hours on it after work. Definitely delivering on all fronts for me, love running my shop and having an objective for each run. Wether it's a mat run for crafting, prioritizing chests or seeing how deep I can go. We need more games like this!
It's not. The only 'rogue' systems are when you die, you drop the items in your inventory. You can buy equipment, buy armor, you perminantly unlock abilities/helpful items, etc. You can even leave a dungeon, heal up, and port right back to where you were for a cost.
Yeah dude it's really not, it has some insanely LIGHT elements but other than that it's real straightforward progression and gameplay loop. Dive in!
I quickly realised the guy who said it was earlier in the thread was talking shit after reading a few reviews. Been playing all afternoon, definitely has that Stardew Valley type loop to it, really good.
Has anybody here actually beaten it? I've read in steam comments from Recettear lovers that this game is actually pretty shallow and very very light in the shopkeeping side... Can anybody comment on this?
I'm debating whether picking it up now or if it is as simple as they say waiting for the switch version and eventually some content updates...

The shopkeeping is really addictive, I am not finding the game shallow either. Then again my point of view should mean as little to you as a random steam reviewer lol. Just check reviews from sites you trust. I have played for about 3 hours and havent got passed floor 3 on the first dungeon due to saving gold and tinkering with stuff.
You can discard if you have the items selected (as your cursor, like if you were going to move it) and then close the menu (think you have to close with y? if you use B it puts the item back).
Really enjoying this game so far, like 6 hours in. The shop part reminds me of spending way too much time as Taloon in Dragon quest 4 selling items as a kid haha. The gameplay is fun in the dungeons too, excited to try some more weapons out!
Anything you have equipped is kept. Money is kept. The only thing not kept are the items in the bag. It's not a rouge-like, it just has a death penalty.
I've really been enjoying the game, the gameplay loop is good. I keep getting greedy and making stupid mistakes and paying for it.
There does seem to be some replayability if you're going for a platinum trophy (or equivalent.)
Played a couple hours. Feels like a total grind. Gameplay gets stale quickly and if you want a new weapon or armor you have to pay through the nose. Probably gonna drop it soon.
Sounds like it's not your game, other impressions have been for the most part positive.
Thanks, wish the switch version was day one but oh well sounds great.
Looks interesting, it's not something like Stardew Valley right? I'm in the market for something short with an ending.
I would like to know this as well. I thought Swords was cool at first, but it quickly lost its luster.
