Yokai games are here: Meet Yokai Shadow

Who lurks behind the shoji screen? Ten shadows daily—guess the yokai from three choices.

A silhouette appears upon the shoji screen.
Guided only by posture, form, and personal objects, can you call this yokai by its true name?

YOKAI.JP has launched a new "Yokai games" section. Our debut title, Yokai Shadow, invites you to test your familiarity with the yokai world.

Discern Shadows, Revisit Lore

Each question presents a shadow silhouette and three possible names. Examine the stance and details carefully before making your choice. Guess correctly, and the shadow unveils its vibrant, full-color true form. After each answer, right or wrong, you can open the encyclopedia entry to discover the legend behind it.

Daily Challenges & Spirit

Signed-in players can start one ten-question run per day for 10 Spirit:

  • Rewards are settled after all 10 questions are answered: the higher your score, the more Spirit you earn—answering all 10 correctly awards 100 Spirit.
  • Progress is saved automatically for the day. You can step away and resume anytime without spending additional Spirit.
  • A new challenge opens daily at midnight (00:00 JST).

How many shadows can you recognize today?
