About Touhou Mystia's Izakaya
Touhou Mystia's Izakaza puts you in the role of Mystia Lorelei, a night‑sparrow youkai striving to run a mobile izakaya across Gensokyo. By gathering ingredients, learning recipes, and serving a rotating cast of customers, you aim to earn money and build friendships. The game blends pixel‑art visuals, original music, and a notebook system that records each rare patron’s preferences, letting you unlock reward spell cards and story events.
01 / THE GUIDE
Core Gameplay
During the day you collect ingredients, learn recipes, and stock beverages for the night’s service. No combat appears; instead you must satisfy each customer’s budget, preferences, and hinted desires to earn yen.
Rare customers give “reward spell cards” when pleased, which can be chained for larger earnings, while displeasing them triggers “punish spell cards.” Mistakes also draw a headbutt from a sensei.
- Observe each rare patron’s hints carefully before cooking.
- Chain reward spell cards to maximize nightly income.

Characters and Bonds
Mystia records each rare customer’s food likes, frequent areas, and a short description in her notebook. Talking to them during the day raises a bond level that eventually grants powerful support.
Companions such as Kosuzu (cooking) and Sakuya (beverages) can be assigned single jobs, allowing you to relax while they run the restaurant, though you still handle rare customers yourself.
- Increase bond levels to unlock support abilities.
- Assign companions to distinct tasks to streamline service.
