Recettear: An Item Shop's Tale

Ken je iemand die dit spel leuk zou vinden?

Samenvatting

"Recettear is een item-shop-focused role-playing game. Dat betekent dat de kern van het spel draait om het runnen van je winkel. Je vindt of koopt voorwerpen, verkoopt ze aan stadsbewoners en beheert je winkel met het oog op het terugbetalen van een schuld elke week. Het spel is uit wanneer de schuld volledig is afgelost."

Verhaallijn

"Recettear is het verhaal van een voorwerpenwinkel, het meisje dat erin woont en de fee die haar leven op zijn kop zet. Recette Lemongrass krijgt de leiding over een in haar huis gebouwde winkel om een lening terug te betalen die haar vader heeft genomen en vervolgens heeft overgeslagen - en Tear, haar nieuwe feeënvriendin, accepteert geen nee! Als Recette moet je beslissen hoe je aan je voorraad komt - ofwel door de markten in de stad te bespelen, ofwel door met een avontuurlijke vriend de natuur in te trekken en beesten af te ranselen tot ze de lekkernijen opgeven - voor hoeveel je dingen verkoopt, hoe de winkel eruit moet zien, en hoe je het best aan het geld komt dat Tear nodig heeft om de lening af te betalen. Als je niet aan het geld kunt komen... dan hoop je dat je graag in een kartonnen doos woont."

A girl who always breaks your chain of gaining experience from selling items. Once "unlocked", she visits your store, selling goods to you at very inflated prices. This is a death knell if you encounter her early enough (-1). FUN FACT: Euria sounds like 'urea', the waste part of urine! Sounds pretty apt!Constantly levelling up in dungeons makes dungeoneering very easy for the first few levels, and very annoying in the later stages, where you are about to fight a boss, but want to level up first (to get full health). (-1).It can be said that the markets fluctuate TOO much, if you buy a somewhat expensive item at low price, and sell it when it's high price, you make a much higher profit than you should, making the game fairly easy if you're lucky enough. (-1).**TOTAL**: 18-3=15. Recettear is one of my all-time favourite games, and is perfect in almost every way, with some VERY minor exceptions. Worth the unusually high price tag, and MORE!

That didn't exactlyI had no idea what to expect when I first got this game, other than that my friend told me it was about running a shop. That didn't exactly sell it high, but it was in a pack for $5 so I went for it. Much to my surprise, it was one of the most addicting games I've played. Quite literally I could not put it down, even after I had beaten it. Somehow it manages to get you caught up in the story with great dialogue and well executed gameplay. The only thing I didn't like was the dungeon feature, which seemed out of place in the game and wasn't up to the standard of everything else around it. However, it is entirely optional and easy to ignore with no consequences for doing so, so it isn't a problem at all. Fantastic game overall.
