Synopsis
Yōkai! is a roleplaying game set in Japan, where for once, you are the monster. Japanese folklore is filled with spirits, demons, and uncanny presences of every kind. These are the yōkai, beings born from human fears, desires, and obsessions. Some rise from abandoned objects. Others from animals that have lived far too long. Their ranks are vast and still growing.
In Yōkai!, players take on the roles of these supernatural creatures with one clear ambition: to grow in power. Fear and Reverence sustain you, but they also attract dangerous attention. Ancient hunter orders. Rival yōkai. Even the yakuza. The more your legend spreads, the harder the world pushes back.
The system is easy to learn and fast to run, welcoming newcomers while offering depth for experienced players. It works just as well for one-shot sessions as it does for long-running campaigns.
Yōkai!’s deep respect for Japanese folklore and cultural context has carried it beyond the gaming table, with appearances in art exhibitions, museums, and academic discussions. Stepping into Yōkai! means diving into contemporary Japan and its living mythology through a dynamic, cinematic roleplaying experience.
This Quickstart Guide includes everything you need to begin right away: pre-generated characters, streamlined core rules, and an introductory adventure set in Tokyo.
