The game and this guide

What You'll Find Here

Narinig Mo Ba? puts you behind a sari-sari store counter. At first, the job is straightforward: listen to the request, find the item, check the price, and give the right change.

Customers also bring the neighborhood with them. Their conversations make the store feel lived in, then gradually make it clear that the routine is not as harmless as it first appears.

This is an independent player guide, not the game's official site. Use it for controls, orders, change, characters, and a full-spoiler explanation of the ending.
