About Onsen Master

Onsen Master is a hot spring customer management game where players must revitalize various hot springs across the fantasy island of Izajima! Create ingredients to match the various customer ailments, reconnect the communities that surround each onsen, and discover the supernatural world that they've long since been disconnected from.

Dive into a 1-2 player story mode, or take on others in a competitive couch multiplayer mode where you must each work to manage your customers within the same hot spring.
  • Short and sweet single-player story across 6 hot spring levels!
  • Unveil the island of Izajima in a visual novel style narrative with a cute anime aesthetic!
  • Skip the story and dive right in with Arcade Mode.
  • Take on others in a competitive 2-player local multiplayer.
  • An original soundtrack full of tunes akin to a Feudal fairytale, composed by Dorrell Ettienne.
  • Supports Xbox and PS4 controllers.

STORY MODE

A dark cloud has sprung over the island of Izajima and its effects weigh heavily on the inhabitants. To top things off, mischievous spirits called yokai have returned and are running amok within the various hot springs. As Mu, you've been tasked with filling the shoes of your now missing sensei, the great "Onsen Master". It is now up to you to restore the balance and uncover what happened to the previous master.

This is a great concept for a game and fun play style, but it's so buggy. Think along the lines of overcooked but simpler mechanics... - Most Achievements are broken (other than clean x amount of each person) - Keyboard and Mouse do not work (although this doesn't seem to be a problem for everyone) - I often put the right ingredient in the onsens but the game wouldn't register it. I got this game as part of a bundle and honestly I'm glad I didn't pay the full price for it, It's a good game but it needs some love and ultimate seems abandoned by devs just from looking at the discussion board. I'd pick this game up in a sale for 50% off or anything above. A shame really, I hope the devs come back to give it more love that it deserves!

The game starts off fun but then by 3-3 it becomes infuriating. For example the pathing in 3-1 was already frustrating but the boss mechanics in 3-3 made the game go from fun but challenging to agonising. And then the pathing in 4-1 made me quit entirely.

Onsen Master is not a good game, kinda glad I bought on a discount cause I fell rip off. To start the game tutorial is broken glad I could skip it but the downside I have to learn the game the hard way by trial and error. The final boss is so unbalance, you never got time to beat it. The achivement are also broken great... The detection is very janky at the time, you want the ingrediant but sadly since the customer is so close most of the time you grab the customer instead of the ingrediant. At least the game is short 3 hours to finish the main story. Overall I dont recomend this game maybe if you have a coop partner it could be more berable that play on SP

Basically an abandoned game. Technically possible to play using a keyboard, but really inconvenient. And if you have a widescreen monitor, you're out of luck, there is no way to make it work without changing the screen resolution

I stole half of this review from the kopierkatze I can recommend this game. I bought it because I like these fast-paced management games and I'm a fan of Onsen, but I started it on easy and it wasn't manageable at all. Customers jump into your baths consistantly, ruining the water. They're going in baths with different ingredients than they wish for, making it impossible to maintain anything at the lowest levels. You can't keep up with anything, and thats whats fun about it. arcade games are alil chaotic punishable and unmanagable could they create a better flow yes but it wouldnt be as chaotic and fun. OMG I SO WISH I WAS IN SPIRITED AWAY, damn word? that place really looks tidy and normal. If I were to change something would be more speed on cleaning the floor when the ground is all moist and attributing score for each puddle you clean up, maybe even adding for the timer. Gamers care too much about consistecy and other things that really takes out of the experience of playing the game. get a game like tapper there's a structure right but the developer never mixes the layout, if we take out the glasses comming back the game becomes way more managable but it also way more stale and…

I like this game! It's cute and is a fun take on the genre. I have however notved my saves for the story mode have disappeared 2x... Hopefully this is a small glitch and my save files will reappear EDIT: there's a glitch where the next levels dont unlock even if you beat the boss with 3 stars. I really hope this gets fixed
