You play as someone who lives in the middle of the woods. Your environment is rich in apples, so you come up with a plan to do business with apples. But there is more than an apple that meets your eye. You might even meet the apple of your eye!

This game is a free-to-play text-based simulator with sprinkles of romance and roleplaying. It is a work of fiction. Any resemblance in real life is merely a coincidence.


Progression Warning:

This game is still a work in progress. The content is still limited. There will be changes and updates in the future. Progressing too far might not be the best idea; you might have to restart certain updates in case of missed events. In case of a sighting of bugs, do let me know so I can pluck them out and squash them. 


Save Warning:

Your save file is stored in your browser's storage. When its cache or history is cleared, your saves are cleared along with it. Neglecting it for a long time might also result to an automatic deletion. It is important to save your playthrough regularly by saving it to disk, which will be stored on your device and can be loaded once uploaded back into the game, and just do not delete it from your device, unless you don't need it anymore. Playing in incognito mode is inadvisable as well as it will not keep your save files.


Content Warning:

Nothing so serious so far, but in case I missed to mention something, please do let me know.


Customizable character of your choices: may it be male, female, or non-binary; gay, straight, or bisexual. Short hair? Long hair? You can even become Rapunzel. Be careful not to step on it, though! You can even go bald (but not in the beginning). And there are many other aspects you can choose freely, like your eye and hair color, and how you'd like your hair styled (you can't if your hair is short though). 

Explore the woods, the town, or beyond. For now, you can only access the woods and town.

Meet people! The local fruit vendor, the carpenter, and many more! For now, it's only these two, though. The owner of the Accessories Shop is still hiding in the backroom. But there are random townsfolk lurking around. You can't interact with them, though (aside from selling to them).

Find the apple of your eye! Treat them well or not — your choice.

Gender-selectable characters! Your character, the love interests, and the people of interest.

Develop and hone skills!  They may prove useful for your everyday life! 

Find a job, work, and gain money and skills!

Manage your bag and inventory. You can never bring too many. 

Buy items or ask for someone's services. It may help with your skills and business.

Sleep and wake up for your everyday tasks!


Hunter 

Someone you meet in the forest. They offer you an apple. Suspicious? Maybe. They are adorable though! I will gladly take a bite of that poisonous apple! 

Snow

Did you meet them during the day or during the night? They are rather peculiar, appearing and disappearing like a magician. 

There are more love interests to come! For now, indulge yourself with these two!

Fun little game, and the design is very cute! Unfortunately, the Carpentry skill never levelled for me either, and every try at crafting failed. Baked lots of pies, though! For balance, the pies might be a bit too high-priced??? I racked up Gs pretty fast after I could start baking. Not sure if that's intended or not. :)

Thank you very much for playing! :D I thought I already fixed it. I'll recheck it. ^^; And about the pricing, I was thinking of changing the prices as well. Thanks for the feedback! <3 And as for crafting, you need to be in a certain carpentry level to succeed it, and since it's not levelling up you can't succeed it. :') Again, thank you!

Thanks for clarifying!

So sorry! Thanks for pointing that out! It was actually a bug. I'll work on it. To level up your carpentry, you actually just have to work under Carla/Carl or craft. Thank you!
