Boku no Natsuyasumi is unique and because of that the manual very useful piece of information. Thank you so much (ﾉ^_^)ﾉ
Thank you so much! I'm really happy to hear this post will be useful to someone :)
Awesome job, Kimimi! I love the looks and sounds of this game. Is it kind of Animal Crossing-esque? Regardless, I'll bet it's fun -- or at least relaxing. Anyway, thanks for taking the time to do this and share the results with your readers. Very much looking forward to future installments :)
Thank you very much Bryan! I added the link to my original blog post at the bottom of the post - which is what I should have done in the first place! Always going to be a few teething problems with these new things :)
This is new and helpful.
Now do Nobunaga's Ambition and Bahamut Senki.
Just kidding, I wouldn't wish that on anyone.
That means a lot Davzz, thank you! :D
I reckon I could do a few pertinent Bahamut Senki pages on a good day...maybe... *hides Bahamut Senki* manual so I never have to look at it again*
Ah, you shouldn't feel bad about forgetting a link to your previous post about this game. That kind of stuff always happens! I'm just glad I can read a bit more about this one, as it definitely sounds/looks interesting :)
The icing on the cake - it's also cheap and easy to find! :D
