Ookami Okami - Prototype Demo
A downloadable game
THIS IS THE EARLY DEMO VERSION OF OOKAMI OKAMI, MADE AS A PROTOTYPE FOR OTOME JAM 2025.
This build contains unfinished art assets, uncompleted game mechanics, DEFINITELY some bugs, and only shows a very small portion of the whole story.
This build DOES NOT reflect the quality of the final game. Still, we sincerely hope you enjoy what we've made so far!
UPDATE: The Steam Demo is now LIVE! ✨CLICK HERE TO GO TO THE STEAM PAGE AND PLEASE WISHLIST THE GAME!✨
Welcome to the Spirit Realm’s most scandalous hot spring inn, where every wall hides heartbreak and every whisper speaks of betrayal.
You are Akine, a sharp-tongued former Okami (innkeeper) reborn as a bold Ookami (wolf yokai/spirit) with a dangerous talent for flirting–especially with the masked white tiger who saved you.
Enter Shimon, the stoic beauty who is utterly clueless when it comes to emotions. But perhaps, his silence is hiding something.
Your mission? Restore the inn, exorcise wayward spirits, and peel away the layers Shimon hides behind. But beware; his trust is fragile, and every choice you make could heal old wounds–or tear them open wider.
Are you ready to ring the bell and check in?
Sweep up cobwebs, scrub suspicious stains, and exorcise lurking evil spirits using interactive point-and-click mechanics as you breathe new life into the long-abandoned inn.
✦ Collect Lost Relics and Summon Lost Staff
Discover hidden relics tied to Shimon’s mysterious past and unlock secret scenes. Revive the inn's guardian spirits to help restore the inn to its former glory.
✦ Meaningful Choices with Multiple Routes and Endings
Friendship, romance, or heartbreak? The fate of the inn—and Shimon’s heart—rests firmly in your hands.
✦ Gorgeous Original Art and 5+ Hours of Heartfelt Fun
Immerse yourself in a beautifully crafted world inspired by traditional Japanese aesthetics, and grow closer to a delightful cast of whimsical characters—each with their own charm, quirks, and secrets to uncover.
Ookami Okami is an otome (female main character, male love interest) visual novel with interactive point-and-click elements, where you play as a once-elderly innkeeper reborn into a stunning youkai body in the Spirit Realm. Your mission? Restore a run-down hot spring inn—and maybe its brooding owner, too.
The story will span approximately 45000 words and features 8 beautiful CGs, along with a charming cast of whimsical characters, both human-shaped and delightfully monstrous.

I've had this page open a tab for so long and I'm so SO glad I've finally played the demo. It was an absolute delight to play. I got sucked into the world so quickly!
The ambiance of the game is so comforting that it makes the moments of Akine's grief feel all the heavier. Her regrets are so understandable it's easy to feel for her. The moment when I got a glimpse of heartbreak in her youth? That reverie was small but so impactful. I love Akine's resilience and how much she believes in herself and seems to be having fun with this second chance.
I can't wait to see more of her story unfold and get to know Shimon better. Plus I love a good cleaning mechanic and being able to bring life back to the environment.
Thank you for sharing this game and I can't wait for the complete game!
Grabbed the demo on Steam! I was keeping an eye out for when that happened so that I could grab the game as quickly as I could (I didn't even realize there was an itch.io page for this until after, haha).
So good though! I love the artwork! The music really fits the theme of the game and I'm very intrigued by the story. Akine is very fun and I'm invested in seeing how she is going to adapt to this new lifestyle, as well as influence those she encounters.
Really looking forward to the full release! I'll be on the lookout for it!
SIR, HELLO?? Would've never expected someone with that gorgeous voice of yours to pick up an otome game like Ookami Okami. Hearing you narrated the game was a DELIGHT to the senses. Thank you so much for sharing your playthrough with us! If you open to voice over commission, please send us an email with your reels!
Aw thanks, that really means a lot!! The demo was so fun and I definitely look forward to narrating more!
And I am open to providing voice overs! I will be sure to send you an email :)
Mushroomallow and azurextwilight making a game together, what a treat!!!!
Our team sat down to play this game together and ignoring the bugs (which we know will be fixed when jam deadlines aren't an issue), we're so glad we got to this entry because the the game itself was incredibly fun for us!!
The atmosphere was quiet and whimsical, the point and click activities were so satisfying and Akine and Shimon have an amazing dynamic! Their banter was silly and downright hilarious. The UI design (minus the pesky bugs) was really clean, with good bones, and the art is so vibrant and polished. We are clawing at your doors for that CG where the two meet!!
Definitely will follow along on the development and we can't wait to see where this goes!
Oh my gosh thank you so much for the wonderful review! 🥰
The development unfortunately will take more times than we've estimated, but we'll make sure send out an announcement when this build is updated and the bugs obliterated! 🔥 Until then, I hope you'll keep supporting us! ^^
this looks soo pretty! I'm excited to play it!!
Happy to hear that!
If you end up playing the current build, please note that it still has some bugs in it, but hopefully we can launch the update this month.
This sounds fun! Will there be a Kickstarter or Backerkit for it?
Hi Razzlebeth! The game already has a Steam page that you can wishlist! There's no plan for kickstarter for Ookami Okami at the moment, but we might have a very early demo up very soon.
If you're interested in more updates of the game, please give us a follow on one (or more!) of our social media (links in our profile)!
