Capitalism Ho! It's a whimsical tale of the daughter of a dead shopkeep, who also inerhite a big pile of debt. You will struggle to send heroes to the dungeon to fetch stuff, visit the markets to buy low, sell high and try to entice your customers to buy, buy buy! Really a nice game to learn basic capitalism and have fun at that!

A favorite of mine in the same vein of Stardew Valley. A (mostly) cozy game that lets you go at your own pace. You play as a little Recette, a young girl whose father seems to have abandoned her to be adventurer and subsequently disappeared, missing presumed dead. In doing so, he saddled Recette with a mount of debt. In comes what is essentially a fantasy Repo Faery Woman, Tear, who understands the difficult situation Recette is in and decides to help her through it, by having Recette run an Item Shop. The target main clientelle is mostly Adventurers, but the shop sells to anyone who comes in the door. The other half of the game comes from picking an Adventurer partner to run through a Dungeon with, using mostly simple Action RPG mechanics. There's quite a lot of fun to be had here if you can muster up the patience for it.
