Description:

The Flower Shop: Winter In Fairbrook is a dating and farming simulation game and takes place after the first Flower Shop game, Summer In Fairbrook.

Natalie has barely survived her first semester in college, and all she wants is a break. However, her parents insist that she start acting like a responsible adult and get a job during her school's winter break. In no time at all, Natalie's roommate sets her up with a job, and she's shipped off to the town of Fairbrook for a mundane job in a flower shop. What's a poor, tired student to do?

Play as Natalie and meet some of the characters of the first game like Clara, Susana, Steve, Trent, Jacob plus a "new entry": Ryan, who runs the general store of the town.

You can plan your weeks and who you spend time with using the weekly scheduler. Customize each week, spend time with who you like, or ignore everyone and work all day. Don't forget to take a break once in a while, or your health will suffer.

Take control of Natalie as she spends winter in Fairbrook raising flowers, making friends, and maybe even finding love!

This one has ingame hints that tell you the stats each of the guys like. I'll write a walkthrough for all the affection points after it's been out a couple days.

...but really, this game is MUCH easier than the first one, and than my last few other games!

T_T I don't know about that... I played through this game four times and got the alone ending all four times even after hints and trying to stick to advice given in the WIP thread... (I've never had this happen before in any VN I've played) And then I ran out of spare time to play it, so hopefully I'll figure it out next time I pick the game up again.

Anyway, congrats on the official release! :D

I think the only hard thing is getting the stats right. For the relationship is easy (and you can "cheat" using rollback hehe). I am able to get both to value of 80 even if you only need 80 (primary) - 60 (secondary).

How fun! When I have free time, I'm going to have to buy this! Although after playing the demo I have to say I like the main character from the first one better.

You can't imagine how happy I am too :lol: since this game had a very troubled development process I'm even happier that it was finally finished!

Congrats for the release! I tried the demo out and I must say, the writing is quite nice and I enjoy Deji's art as usual! It's a great improvement from the first game as well. The demo itself is great I had a few chuckles (I don't think I made a good first impression on Ryan and Steve haha)

I'm speaking with a friend coder about the possibility to do a Facebook contest, though I'm not sure if I'll make it in time for Christmas. As for this being the last game on the Flower Shop series, I really hope not! :D
