Obara. How about working as a professional recommendation or store? Here comes the Everyone’s pixiv Comic store!

Everyone’s pixiv Comic store refers to a simulation game that requires no installation, set in bookstores. Players become owners of bookstores, and display books for the 2 weeks across New Year’s, in order to increase the popularity of the store.

△Example of the game. Increase the sales and the ending will change accordingly!

The key of the game are the P Jewels, red gemstones. You can use them in adding new manga to your shelves, or increasing the staff members, or leveling up. These P Jewels can be collected when reading pixiv Comic manga, or sharing your store on social media. In short, the more manga you read and the more you share on Twitter, the more interesting the game gets! You can expand your shelves and shop space as you increase your sales! Your bookstore is gonna burst with popularity.
