In doing so, they find a magical teapot that allows them to see into the spirit world. Strange occurrences plague the town, and it's up to the player to find and appease the spirits by rebuilding their bathhouse and managing it to a high standard in order to allow them to soak away their troubles. This then frees up the townspeople, who will look to bond with you over food, games, karaoke, fishing and bug catching, giving you plenty of inspiration for your novel!","78958\u002Fspirittea_webp","78958\u002Fspirittea_header_webp","https:\u002F\u002Fyoutu.be\u002FK9NAuBLQ2x0","2023-11-13",73,204418,"spirittea",1931010,[19,24],{"company":20,"developed":22,"published":23},{"name":21},"No More Robots",false,true,{"company":25,"developed":23,"published":22},{"name":26},"Cheesemaster Games",[28,29,30,31],"Puzzle","Role-playing (RPG)","Simulator","Adventure",[33,34,35,36],"PC (Microsoft Windows)","Xbox One","Nintendo Switch","Xbox Series X|S",[38,53,67,80,96,109,123,136,149],{"id":39,"author":40,"outlet":43,"summary":49,"review_url":50,"review_date":13,"original_score":51,"normalized_score":52},43,{"id":41,"name":42},16,"William Worrall",{"id":44,"logo":45,"name":46,"website_url":47,"score_format":48},1,"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.criticdb.com\u002Fstorage\u002Fv1\u002Fobject\u002Fpublic\u002Favatars\u002FOutlets\u002FTechRaptor%20Logo.png","TechRaptor","https:\u002F\u002Ftechraptor.net","10","Spirittea might have its issues, but it offers some truly unique things for the life sim genre.
