Podunk is the first city of the game and where the beginning of the story takes place. [[Ninten]]'s [[Ninten's house|house]] is located northwest of the main part of the city; with [[Pippi]]'s residence being slightly south of Ninten's, and north of the city's centre. Excluding Ninten's and Pippi's homes, there are a total of eleven single-detached dwellings and twelve buildings with more skyscraper-looking attributes in the city. The taller buildings are usually stores of some type, where items might be purchased for different costs; while only one of the more simple buildings is enterable. | Podunk is the first city of the game and where the beginning of the story takes place.

When entering the city, there's a house to the north (the second one which [[Ninten]] passes if he follows the walkway), which is the only villa in the city which Ninten can experience the interior of; if he chooses to enter, the only individual present inside is a mouse who gives away some information when talked to.

It mentions that only buildings with signs or rounded doors can be entered, which can be a useful tip as [[The player|the player]] can decide whether a building is enterable or not just by looking at it. | ||
In the center of the town, there's a building with a pink door, called the City Hall, where the [[A. Goodman|mayor]] resides, alongside his assistant, named [[Abbott]]. On the main floor of the City Hall there's a receptionist who will give him a hint, after Ninten has saved Pippi, about a wonder girl who will help him during his trip. The majority of the residents who Ninten is able to converse with throughout the town will mostly express concern about the occurring events in the town; however, once Ninten has rescued Pippi from the cemetery, they will mostly thank Ninten for his effort instead of being worried. | In the center of the town, there's a building with a pink door, called the City Hall, where the [[A.

==Geography== | ==Geography== | ||
Podunk is the second biggest settlement in the game, sizewise, with an area of 16,790 square meters,<ref>[[:File:MothersDayRef.jpg|Excerpt from Mother's Day (Podunk's) Encyclopedia Mother Entry]]</ref> only losing to [[Reindeer]], having an area of 19,974 square meters. The town itself is encircled by a lot of natural surroundings (like the majority of the towns in the game), being enclosed by several trees and a bigger part of the area being covered in grass; several streams of water do also surround it. The area of the settlement is also very even, where the ground is starting to become asymmetrical in height rather far away from the town, which is in the northeastern parts, where plenty of cliffs reside. An unique feature within the territory is the frequent appearance of flowerbeds throughout the entirety of the inhabited part of the town. | |||
To the east of Podunk lies [[Merrysville]], which can be reached by crossing a set of bridges. Other nearby locations include [[Canary Village]] which lies northwest of Podunk, the [[Choucream Zoo]] lying to the north, and the [[South Cemetery|cemetery]] to the south. | To the east of Podunk lies [[Merrysville]], which can be reached by crossing a set of bridges.
