About This Game

After a disastrous stay at the only hotel by the beach, Elinor decides to convert an old farmhouse in a nearby village into an inn. However, renovating the inn doesn't come cheap, so she accepts a loan from a mysterious tycoon who demands payment by the end of the month.

Meet a colorful cast of characters as Elinor welcomes visitors to her new inn and recruits villagers and employees. Meanwhile, she discovers various treasures hidden around the village, and gradually learns more about the other villagers and the former owner of the farmhouse. Can Elinor uncover the secrets of the past, revive the fortunes of the struggling village, and turn the inn into a roaring success before the deadline?
