You’re playing as a soft girl who suffers from a lack of self-confidence and shyness. You just graduated from college and now you need a job. One day your relative, calls and tells you that their friend needs an employee at a store. For some reason, the business suffers from staff turnover, but your relative is convinced that YOU are the one who can handle the job. 

Sounds great, but there is one problem…

This store is a place for true hardcore minds. "Sharp Accessories" is a store that sells the sharpest, most dangerous tools and weapons. This is a shelter for the meanest and toughest people in the world. How is this even legal?..

As a person who is afraid to tell “no” you don’t want to disappoint and let your relative down. Yeah, this whole “Weapons store” thing sounds really uncomfortable and you feel distressed and disturbed only by the thought of communicating with people who visit such places. But do you have any choice? After all, you couldn’t find something better by yourself and it would be stupid, or even worse, ungrateful to reject the offer… right?

Soft Assistant in a Sharp Accessories Shop is an uplifting take on the jam's theme of softness. I found the premise funny and enjoyed the game's main mechanic in managing your self-confidence. I also enjoyed the relaxing guitar soundtrack too. Overall, I enjoyed the game for its relatable premise and unique approach to the theme.

I won ! The movement are a bit hard and you feel a bit "stuck" when you are interacting, it could be nice to visually indicates the player can't do another action during this period. It s a tough game at first ! Well play
