Ministry of Stoic

Synopsis
A short, chill game about managing a ramen stall-front to distribute contraband 'cute-ware' to the masses in rebellion against a nation-wide strict anti-aesthetic policy.
In a year ushering in peace after a large civil war broke out and claimed millions of lives in the city, the triumphant party declared a nation-wide policy of anti-aesthetics, leading a propaganda campaign to blame the war on 'vapid aesthetics' and 'excessive emphasis on frivolous positivity'.
Any article found to be cute will immediately be deemed contraband and illegal to possess. You are tasked by the Rebellion to subvert the Ministry's narrative by distributing various 'cute-ware' to the masses via a ramen stall front.
