Short description

March 2012, Nagano. The brave and clever high school girl, Chio Aozora, is facing a major crisis: she doesn’t have enough money to buy a croquette! Navigate through the streets and alleys of Nagano, interact with a variety of characters, solve complex puzzles, collect 380 yen, and buy a croquette!

About the game

Despite eating two boxes of bento for lunch, Chio Aozora's stomach is rumbling again!
"It's been such a long time since I last had a croquette. I really miss that crispy, golden goodness…”

The familiar aroma of croquettes is so tempting, but Chio has forgotten to bring money!
"I think I tucked some money into my textbook, but I left the textbook at school..."

Collect 380 yen in the shopping streets of Nagano to buy the croquette Chio has been dreaming of!
"But... where should I start?"

Help out at the store, run errands, collect urban legends, play word games, and even rummage through trash cans – all to get the yen coins you need!
"I never thought I'd have to resort to rummaging through the trash..."

The game features simple puzzles, mild depictions of horror (no chase scenes though!), multiple endings, and all sorts of quirky elements. Of course, there are also croquettes!

Tips on How to Buy a 380-Yen Croquette:

  • Yen coins are hidden all over Nagano! Investigate trash bins, bathroom sinks, park slides, vending machines, and other places throughout Nagano’s streets and alleys to find lost coins!

  • Be a good citizen by helping others! The kind-hearted Chio Aozora will assist the residents of Nagano with various requests, from finding lost items to counting the convenience store inventory, from solving mysterious cases to tailing suspicious individuals... There's nothing a high school girl can't do!

  • Uncover the buried secrets of Nagano! A notebook sealed with passwords and secrets… could it lead to a hidden treasure? Misplaced crates, Penrose stairs, abandoned houses, word games... Solving these puzzles might lead to unexpected rewards...

  • Receive the croquette from kind-hearted people! There might be ways to get a croquette without collecting coins. Maybe someone can lend Chio some yen, or maybe even hand over their croquette – Chio might even be able to get a free meal from the croquette vendor... All of these choices will lead to different endings!

  • Deal with unexpected crises (if you make a wrong choice)! While Chio is collecting coins, some choices might lead her into dangerous situations – she might encounter some terrifying urban legends!

Game Duration: 4-10 hours
Number of Endings: 12 (including 4 hidden endings)

A Brief How-to-Play:
Use the arrow keys to move the character, and press the ESC/X key to open the menu. Press the space bar to interact with NPCs/objects in front of you.

If you get stuck, you can refer to the free DLC – Nagano Survival Guide.

A high school girl who loves croquettes. She has to collect 380 yen to buy the croquette that she dreams of because she had forgotten to bring money.

Chio Aozora's best friend, who is always there for her (and Chio for her!). She can be a bit of a chatterbox sometimes.

The boy Chio Aozora has a crush on. He seems to be a delinquent student who often skips class, but he is gentle to Chio.
