In a whimsical world where hearts are literal objects that can be traded, stolen, or gifted, players assume the role of a Heart Merchant—someone who specializes in acquiring and selling hearts based on their emotional qualities. Players must navigate a society filled with heart-thieving rogues, emotionally conflicted townspeople, and mystical beasts, all while piecing together their own fractured past and the true nature of their own heart. Choices are crucial; each decision will alter the character's fate and affect the fate of those around them, creating a deeply personal narrative woven with humor, drama, and unexpected plot twists.
