Take It Easy Street | Minami Lane (Cozy Street Builder Game - Demo)

Minami Lane is a gorgeous cozy little game about building a street and making people happy, which I think sounds all very wonderful.

Guided by our hat-wearing tanuki friend (who I refer to as a racoon initially, sorry tanuki friend!) we take on our first mission, which is to turn a drab street into a nice one! Each day we can build one new building, such as a house, a park or even a ramen shop! Each building adds something new to the street. Homes mean there are more people, the parks add beauty and the shops bring in the money we need to build more things.

The appearance of each building can be configured a little and the products that the shops sell are also configurable! Want more noodles in your ramen? Go for it! Want less egg but more shrimp? Sure thing!

On the second mission there are more new buildings, such as a bookshop, and the requirements to complete the level are a little different.

Also on each level we can see what the people on the street are thinking, which can help us plan the next day's setup, and we have to pick up litter and remember to find our tanuki friend who is hiding somewhere! Oh and there are cats to pet.

NOTE: This is the demo version of the game.
