About This Game

Yama-no-Yu is open again, with a few simple rooms, a bath and plenty of guests you have yet to meet.

Decide how the inn grows. Expand its grounds, pair facilities, plan work and rest for your staff and research new dishes. Clean rooms and thoughtful service build your reputation. When an entrance is crowded, a room does not suit its guest or the kitchen cannot keep up, adjust your arrangements.

After sunset, kappa, tanuki and other mountain friends come for a soak. Regular guests, yokai and workers have lives of their own. Their stories progress through real stays, meals and hospitality. Take small requests and bookings, then keep the gifts, notes, group photos and yearly memories they leave behind.

Spring blossoms, summer fireflies, autumn leaves and snow bring a gentle rhythm to the mountains. Prepare seasonal gatherings and the Hundred Yokai Festival. Shape the inn into a bath retreat, a place for fine food, a garden haven, a yokai inn or a family destination. Keep running it freely after reaching the long-term goal.
