Yokai in Tokyo is a stylish 2D side-scroller where ancient folklore collides with the neon chaos of the modern world. You play as a mischievous yet noble Kitsune yokai whose mystical powers have been stolen by the feared dark samurai, Yami no Jaken-shi—a once-honorable warrior now corrupted by shadow. Powerless and stranded in the human realm, you embark on a daring journey across Tokyo to reclaim what was taken.
Dash through bustling train stations, glowing alleyways, hidden shrines, and high-rise rooftops as you navigate both human hazards and supernatural threats. To regain your strength, seek out the Sacred Sushis, spiritual delicacies infused with fragments of your stolen essence. Each sushi you consume grants new abilities—ranging from illusion tricks and elemental foxfire to agile movement skills—allowing you to access new areas and face increasingly dangerous foes.
As you progress deeper into Tokyo’s mysterious underbelly, you’ll encounter spirits, corrupted yokai, environmental puzzles, and fast-paced platforming challenges. Every step brings you closer to the heart of the darkness—and to Yami no Jaken-shi himself.
Your destiny is clear:
Reclaim your power. Restore balance. And defeat the samurai who betrayed the light.
