I dunno why but my happiness kept plummeting. I did beat the crap out of some spirits though, so that felt pretty good :)
The combat felt much juicier than the management side, so I preferred that part of the game. Some things were kind of unclear to me (like the fact that I had to go to sleep before transitioning into combat mode, and the fact that the eyes represented health). I like the pixel art and variety of enemy combatants though.
