About Open Late: Open a night stall in a rain-lit pixel-art alley. Drop a kettle, then a grill, and watch the street fill until you cannot see the floor. Lock up when the bar is full and wake up in a new city: Kyoto, Paris, London, Cairo and ten more. A short-session idle game where paid looks never print gold.
