About Aooni The Horror of Blueberry Onsen
In this new installment, the game no longer takes place at a European mansion and is now set at an abandoned hot spring inn.
A popular hot spring inn that once boasted having a "hot spring that makes you beautiful" is now in ruins.
There are rumors that ghosts appear there.
Hiroshi, Mika, Takuro, and Takeshi visit the abandoned hot spring inn to film for Mika's online channel where they encounter a suspicious man and a girl named Ai.
What is the blueberry hot spring, and what awaits them at the deepest depths…
Will Hiroshi and his friends be able to escape safely?
All-New Character Illustrations
Character designs have been updated, creating charming visuals that make the characters more appealing. From Hiroshi to Mika, experience our beloved cast of characters in a fresh, new design. For those who want the classic feeling, changing the main character's name to ‘OldFace’ or ‘oldface’ will revert the character portraits to the previous version.
The Official Double-Speed Mode Has Been Further Improved
Can you escape from the Blue Oni and Human-Faced Dog Demon in the fastest double-speed mode ever?
The double-speed mode, one of the most popular modes of our previous title, has now been powered up to 16x speed. High Speed Mode is perfect for those who have already cleared the game in normal mode, skilled streamers, and provocative commentators.
Achievements Implemented On Switch
The achievement feature familiar from Steam can now be enjoyed on the Switch version. There's 41 achievements in total, try to complete them all!
