''Toy Shop is a new strategy/RPG type game, heavier on the strategy. Here, the strategy is to run a toy shop that your two characters have inherited from their Grandfather. You have three years in which to make it profitable, or you will lose the shop forever.
The graphics in Toy Shop are very simple. They are bright and very well done. It's easy to see what everything is, so you don't have any trouble telling what you need. Except for the characters that you interact with, the rest of the people are pretty generic. There are 12 different people that you can talk to that say anything other than how the weather is. They all have their own look and personalities, some of which are quite characters!
There isn't much in the way of sound. The background music is generic, but pleasant to listen to and non-obtrusive. None of the characters actually talk, you just read their words. You do get sounds that help you to know when everything happens. There's a cash register jingle when you make a sale, a bell when the door opens, and different sounds when you succeed or fail in making the toys.''
