Looks kind of fun. I'm actually surprised it's a PC game as the graphic style looked like something published by NIS. Interesting blurb from the FAQ:
But doesn't that mean I can just pirate your game?
or
But aren't you afraid of getting pirated into oblivion?
Well, we'll say this: Recettear would be pirated regardless of whether we used copy protection or not. We're adults and we understand that our work will be stolen by someone who doesn't want to pay for it; that's how the Internet works in this day and age. Any prospective pirates who enjoy our work, however, must realize that we can only continue to produce localizations for games - and possibly help foster new projects on our own - if we make enough money to make a living at it.
If you like the game even a little bit, please purchase it. We respect our customers enough to not put any invasive DRM programs into Recettear - we hope the respect will be repaid in kind.
If only larger publishers would wake up to this. DRM doesn't do anything but mess with paying customers.
