| 2023-03-20 |  | | These games are calming and great to relax to. Unlike the usual games, they feel more focused towards the simplicity of life, which in my opinion, is always overlooked. If any doubtful reader stumbles upon this, I highly recommend it for it's adorable characters and unique gameplay ideas. (If you're looking for a game that had a quick log in + short play, I recommend it even more!) |
| 2022-11-14 |  | | Gorgeous game, lots of story, very little to manage. My main problem with it is that because it's all offline it saves whenever it likes. Which isn't as often as necessary. I have had loads of times where I've reopened the game to be in the same place I was before. I recommend doing what you need to then leave the game open for a while. |
| 2022-10-10 |  | | 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!! |
| 2022-08-05 |  | | Really cute game, love the artstyle very nostalgic. Main issue is that the ads that pop up mid game and the other one that activates fever or give tokens makes my game crash for some reason which is a bit annoying and it doesn't save the missions that i just did and when i try to play the ad it crashed 6 times and I just installed this game. I like the game wish the crashing and random ads would stop |
| 2021-09-05 |  | | I liked the other games in the series but this one has too many ads and no option to turn them off; they don't even turn off if you buy something else for real money. It's unbearable and infuriating. I'v been playing for four minutes, according to the stock timer, and seen at least five mandatory video ads, including one that came up up after I actually spent money in the game shop (bought customer upgrade). Real money and I'm still being harassed with marketing. Uninstalling, hoping for refund |
| 2021-07-16 |  | | The third installment seemed to brings in new mechanics to the game. Collecting item became easier, even with the new month system. The stories are engaging, and easier to follow. A lot of gameplay error such as buttons and layout has been fixed as well in this game. A satisfying game, you should check it out. |
| 2020-08-16 |  | | Sequel to the Showa Candy Shop 2. It is a very nice game and actually the 4th game of the studio I've played. Great story and simple playable elements which need to be managed make this a very compatible game for Mobile phones. This one did not have any issues compared to Showa candy and showa candy 2 on my device. Those couldn't properly support the aspect ratio of my device . This one fits just fine. Just the animation could be smoother otherwise its a very good game. |
| 2020-06-06 |  | | Beautiful game, the artwork is amazing and I loved the chill, relaxing music. The gameplay is simple and easy to pick up when I had a few minutes during the day. But only giving 3 stars because the story was so hard to follow. I still don't really understand the ending? Makes it feel like I wasted all my time because I don't have a satisfactory ending. |
| 2020-05-15 |  | | Lost of new characters and capsule toys! I like the cat capsule toys and the seasonal gimmick especially. I do confess that I can't quite follow the story as well compared to the last 2 games in the series. There seem to be 2 distinct storylines and possibly time travel??? But I'm not done collecting letters yet, so, hopefully I'll figure it out. |
| 2020-04-27 |  | | Another great game by this company. Short and sweet, with a heartwarming ending. I'm not a completionist and am satisfied with just seeing the ending, and it's so worth it. The story actually made me cry a few times. The sudden twist in the story is found in all of this company's games, yet it still managed to be surprising. Although progress in the game is slow, I couldn't recommend its story more. |
