About the Game

A NSFW Yaoi / Bara Visual Novel! WITH FULL VOICE ACTING!

Samurai Asano was betrayed by his daimyo master, the warlord Sakuna, who steals his ancestral onsen. Asano vows to get revenge by ruining the onsen!

When Sakuna's daughter Mina takes over the onsen, she unwittingly awakens four oni who are trapped there. The grateful oni will protect Mina and thwart Asano--but then they learn the sexy samurai is the key to their freedom!

According to legend, the only way an oni can exit the onsen is by 'getting love' from a member of the original family. The oni take the word ‘love’ to mean the physical kind!

Asano has returned to his stolen onsen under a false name and with a mission to destroy it! He doesn't know oni now reside in each of the four private spas. They're not about to let this distraught ronin devastate their home!

When they learn Asano is actually a member of the family-line owning the onsen, and that he's the only one who can break the curse for them, things get really interesting!

The curse scroll says the oni must 'get love' from a member of the Hayashi family to break the curse. That means sex, and Asano's the last of the Hayashi clan!

Asano's been through a lot...maybe a sexy diversion is just what he needs?
