Concept
Each game in the franchise features a boy named, Boku, who has been sent off to enjoy a month long summer vacation. During the course of the month the player is given many different activities in which they can participate in during the course of the day. From one-off events/activities to events/activities that take place over the course of several days and to events/activities that can be done everyday. At the end of each day, Boku will draw a representation of his day in his diary. The goal of Boku no Natsuyasumi is to have an fun-filled and exciting summer vacation that creates many lasting memories.
The series provides a very idyllic depiction of a Japanese summer vacation with a very nostalgic atmosphere for the different eras represented in the franchise.
