I had to make a glowing review for this game because that other review really doesn't do justice for how great this gem is.
What shines in this game is how diverse the gameplay is mechanically, you will do a variety of actions, puzzles, mini-games, and exploring in a very streamlined way straight to the content. The game is actually well designed in this way, with no open map, you walk between rooms in the SPA and each one is its own playground filled with unique activities and scenes (that are all animated btw!), all following the refreshing SPA theme.
I have to say, the protagonist is a dull blank slate, the NPCs can have very charming lines (especially the little ones) but she doesn't seem this affected by the world around her, even when she express dislike towards all the molestation. Giving her character, or even giving her a purpose (ex: she is stressed and determined to have the best spa day ever!), a husband completely unaware of his wife's mishaps, anything really would really elevate this little game, it really is the only flaw.
The game doesn't waste the player's time, it's a gal that goes to a SPA and has her "little adventure". No grind, no slog, no huge maps, it's short and brimming with content.
This game shines above all the boring sea of generic fantasy copy-and-pasted uninspired turn-based combat RPGM games, it's a solid game and an easy recommendation for anyone looking for something above the average Japanese RPGM you find in the market. I also highly recommend playing the other dev titles (Minamo's Island), as they follow the same design principles as this one.
