Anybody remember 春日歩? No? How about Osaka, then? That’s right, that spacey girl from Azumanga Daiou.
春日歩の通販生活ｆｉｎａｌ is a sim of Osaka… doing pretty much nothing. It’s deathly accurate. Watch her as she does absolutely nothing! As time passes, you can earn yen to buy new gadgets, trinkets, or accessories for her room. You can even buy her clothes! It’s fun to see her interact with the various things you buy her. She still acts like the Osaka we all know, though. She seemingly gazes out into somewhere for no reason at all, she sleeps pretty much anywhere she wants, and she even dances (with no music playing either), all with that spaced-out smile of hers!
Here’s a picture of the game in action. You need a Direct3D compatible video card to run it. You can get the torrent from here, 5 days back. It’s not very demanding, otherwise. A word of advice – the game automatically saves itself. If you click the Initialize button in the menu, it will reset all your hard-earned items that you bought her! Because of that, I accidentally lost the teleporter I bought her.
I recommend downloading the patch from hirahira.net. She gets a “Chiyo-chan’s dad” hat in her regular inventory. You may also need to download AppLocale from Microsoft to install it if you only have English WinXP. The instructions and link are in the torrent. In my opinion, though, I would write the bin file to CD instead of running a virtual drive like the instructions tell you to do. Nero Burning ROM can do this easily (just open Nero Burning ROM, click Recorder, and click Burn Image).
I highly recommend this sim, especially if you’re a big fan of Azumanga Daiou like I am. Also, if you work all day, leave the sim running until you get home, so you can earn tons of easy yen. ^_^
OSAKA-SAN!!!!
Fufufu~
