Publishing label No More Robots (Hypnospace Outlaw, Descenders) and development studio Cheesemaster Games are thrilled to reveal Spirittea, a life sim set in rural East Asia, that sees players fixing up an old bathhouse, and helping dozens of spirits to find their peace.
Inspired in equal measure by iconic life sim Stardew Valley, and classic spirit-focused anime and manga, Spirittea follows a writer who has escaped to the countryside, in order to clear their head and find inspiration for their next novel.
However, after accidentally drinking from an old mystical teapot, our protagonist begins to see the spirit world overlapping with their reality.

Wonyan, a nuisance cat spirit and faithful guide, shows our writer how many spirits need saving -- and hands over the keys to an old bathhouse, where spirits go to relax.
Spirittea is both a life sim, and management game, all in one. Players live day to day, finding local NPCs and spirits to help, and taking part in tons of different hobbies, ranging from bug catching to karaoke.
Every spirit you help will then turn up at your bathhouse, where you can offer them towels, salts, snacks, and a lovely hot soak. Upgrading your bathhouse with new furniture, rooms and baths is key to attracting the most exciting spirits, including elusive Lord Spirits, who take up an entire room each.
Spirittea will launch later this year on PC and console.
