This guide is to help you play the Statue of Liberty module, which is only in Japanese.
Statue of LibertyThe way the Japanese version works is because of the conversion of 100 Yen being 1 USD, I've written the prices in dollars for consistency. I also assume that the maintenance is done per month. The descriptions are translated from Japanese, except in cases where it's already in the other modules. I hope I have all the numbers down. Keep in mind that all translations are machine-translated. I do not speak Japanese and these are going to be wonky. If you can speak Japanese and have a correction to make, drop me a line.
There's a video spoken only in Japanese that I can't understand but the gist of it is there are two people, a female tour guide and a male security guard who will meet up and fall in love at some point during the course of the game. Through uploading the video to YouTube and translating from there, the translated transcript is as follows, best I could follow and understand it: What do you think? Are you used to the building system? This time your name is Liberty Island, famous for the Statue of Liberty. It is to further develop this famous Liberty Island. Well, this is one of the best tourist attractions in the world. Relax your shoulders and go the other way around. First of all, the boat. And set up a ticket office in the lobby. Set up a ticket system and go up the elevator 23 times. Then more and more tourists come up using the spiral staircase. You will give it to me. Rather let these two people participate in the story. One is Harry, a security guard. He is a brave and honest young man who confronted the terrorists. And this is female Liberty Island guide, Marie Quant, who is in charge of Liberty Island. Once a day at a fixed time, they will have a private conversation.

I received a threatening phone call from a terrorist!
"Ha ha ha. We are the Shige Shige Gang. We planted a bomb somewhere on Liberty Island. This is a challenge. Can you find it?"
"Boss, I'll search for the bomb. Let's tell the tourists it's a gas leak and have them evacuate."
"Building a museum on Liberty Island is a fantastic idea. OK, I'll fully support it." (They do know that the White House and the Statue of Liberty are nowhere near each other, right?)
