Main Features
Bargain Bins have been added to Regal Ruffles, sold by Owen. Players can now sell unwanted boardgames from their collection for 50% of their original purchase price, providing a new way to free up storage space and earn extra money.
Pets have arrived in Dragon's Brew! Stray animals will now appear on the 7th and 21st of each month, giving players the opportunity to adopt new companions. A total of 10 pets are available (5 cats and 5 dogs)
Character customisation has been significantly expanded with more hair and clothing options and the addition of Facial Features. This update also includes improved player sprites, improved animations, and a brand-new sprint animation.
Customers, Town NPCs, and Main Shopkeeper NPCs have all received updated sprites and animations to match the new player character visuals.

Locked shops now feature personal notes from their owners instead of a generic "Demo Locked" message.
