About The Good Life
Naomi, a New York journalist with a ton of debt on her shoulders, has a plan to get her finances in check once and for all. She moves to "the happiest town in the world," Rainy Woods, to photograph and report on the happenings in the town-but not all is what it seems. Once a month, everyone who lives in Rainy Woods-now including Naomi-must turn into a dog or a cat. Live alongside the town's kooky residents in this single-player open-world adventure, uncovering mysteries, building friendships, and climbing out of debt, one photograph at a time. But be careful-each decision you make has lasting consequences in the fabric of the game, and will alter the way the story ends.
