when I first played the game, I got mixed feelings. I got the sense that this game was designed to be more practical. a sanctuary instead of the start menu. I like it. but they removed too much of its functionality, and no tutorials to explain how anything worked.

In an economic depression all shops should as a practice selling and buying.
