Yokai City

Yokai City is a character-driven visual novel in the style of Japanese anime of the 1980s, set against a backdrop of uneasy social tensions between humans and yokai who are forced to live together in a part of Tokyo. The year is 1988. After millennia of conflict with humans, all remaining yokai were at last convinced to relocate to the centre of Sumida: one of the capital’s 23 wards. Only oni and Inari remain now, all the other species of yokai that once played such an important part in Japan’s history and folklore are now reduced to existing solely in literature and cinema. Enter the shoes of a half-man, half-oni regulator (a law enforcement official tasked with keeping the peace between humans and non-humans) and see how you and your team deal with daily life in 80s Tokyo all the while trying to stop criminals and violent fanatics from both sides who seem hell-bent on tearing the city apart.
