Enjoy everyday life while solving a murder mystery in Rainy Woods - known as the "happiest town in the world" - in this all-new "Debt Repayment RPG"!
About the story
Journey to Rainy Woods... a small town in Northern England surrounded by forests. Nestled in abundant nature, stone houses built in the Middle Ages still stand beside one another. The townspeople look out for each other, love their families, work hard, and enjoy nightly drinks at the local pubs. At first glance, it looks like just another normal country town, but the townspeople all say the same thing... "This is the happiest town in the world." "We're the happiest people on the planet." They don't talk about why they are so happy, or how they know that they're the happiest in the world, but they seem to really believe what they say. As an étrangère, players feel both alienated yet strangely comfortable. An RPG-style town filled with fun activities and fascinating people... Our twisting, mysterious story will have you captivated... Make friends, solve mysteries, and become emotionally invested! We're sure you'll never be able to forget this town, even though it's in the middle of nowhere!

Critic Reviews
Nindie Spotlight
By Justin NationAn odd mix of a lot of exploring, taking photos, and trying to solve a variety of pretty unusual mysteries in a rural town
BaziCenter
By Amin Bala ZadehLike any other game by Hidetaka Suehiro, The Good Life is a unique experience with simple yet engaging gameplay and solid story telling, offering a few hours of pure meditation.
video games are good
By Nathan HermansonThe Good Life isn't for everyone in the same way that Swery65 himself isn't for a lot of people. But I encourage you to ask if it's for you and go find out. When you give a game like this a chance, you just might sink into the oddities and fall in love with a world of animorphing British folk who ask absurd tasks of you. Undoubtedly, you'll find yourself upset with more than a few decisions made by Swery and his team at White Owls. But amidst the hodgepodge, you also might find something golden that fits you like a glove.

By Cullen BlackDespite an interesting setting, tedious gameplay and poor performance makes The Good Life a disappointing outing for Swery.
RPG Fan
By Abraham KobylanskiThe Good Life makes for a nice getaway, but don't plan on staying for too long.
