About

This version of the beloved Japanese game is now available in the West and includes several enhancements. It features updated graphics for modern screens, trophy and achievement support, a complete English translation with both English and Japanese voice acting, plus convenient features like save states and the ability to rewind gameplay.

When 11-year-old Milano’s summer vacation begins, her mom has to go to the hospital, and she’s sent to stay with her uncle. Unfortunately, her uncle is already on vacation! Left to her own devices, Milano decides to spend the summer working odd jobs around town – everything from delivering pizzas to caring for patients and even milking flying cows! Over the next 40 days, she’s determined to make it a summer to remember, and maybe even tidy up her uncle’s house along the way. This rediscovered and updated classic from the 32-bit era is easy to pick up and play, with lovable characters and gameplay that both retro and casual gamers will enjoy. It’s a game you can play again and again!

Key Features

  • Milano Meets the World – Full English text and voiceovers bring Milano’s pixel-art adventures to a whole new audience. Fans can rest assured that the original Japanese is also available, complete with all-new English subtitles.
  • Make Your Home Away from Home – Rest and relaxation are important for work-life balance. Milano can style the house with new furniture and decor instead of going into work, and at night she can enjoy quiet time inside with her uncle’s cat, stargazing from her bedroom, and making use of items purchased with her hard-earned wages.
  • It’s Not Work if You Love to Do It – Help Milano earn money in eight unique mini-games, including curing diseases as a nurse, catching falling fruits in an orchard, and more. Enrich Milano’s skill, mood, and energy in the evenings to unlock more odd jobs and higher difficulty levels. The tougher the challenge, the bigger the payday!
  • Nostalgic Gameplay, Modern Conveniences – The charm and gameplay of the original release are intact, but improved load times, save states, and a rewind feature help update this classic title for modern audiences.
