The only way for her to escape from debt hell is to take pictures of happenings in the town and report on them. Of course, ‘the happiest town in the world’ is not your average town…

Story

The main character of this game is a female New Yorker named Naomi. In order to pay off her debt, she took a job from a newspaper company in NY and moved to the ‘happiest town in the world.’ This game chronicles all the bizarre things she experiences during her time in the town.

A completely new ‘daily life action-adventure game’ with a slow life that isn’t actually slow!

 In this game, the player has two main goals: 

1. Pay off your debt with money you earn from doing photography jobs in the town.
2. Solve the mystery of the murder that took place in the ‘happiest town in the world.’

The townspeople are also hiding a big secret…

In the moonlight, all the townspeople suddenly transform… And suddenly, the town is filled with cats and dogs!

Once a month, everyone who lives there transforms into either a cat or a dog.

Naturally, Naomi and the player will also turn into a cat or a dog.”
