About the Game

Animal Onsen is a small, peaceful world that lives at the bottom of your screen. It is a tiny hot spring for animal guests, designed to keep you company while you work or unwind.

Guests come and go on their own. If you feel like interacting, you can click to speed up their stay, gently move them around, and help with small requests, then return to whatever you were doing.

Decorate the onsen with small details and change the layout whenever you feel like refreshing the space.

New onsens open over time, each with its own look and atmosphere. The scene changes naturally throughout the day, with weather and lighting subtly reshaping the mood.

From time to time, the onsen offers small surprises. Notes, decorations, music, and moments you can revisit later through memories and galleries.

Auto collapse keeps the onsen tucked away while you focus. Optional extras like a built in pomodoro timer and onsen sprites that help handle requests allow the world to quietly run alongside your day.
