Heisei: Shin Onigashima Walkthrough

Overcoming the language barrier of the Shin Onigashima series is difficult for players interested in the series but who are unable to understand the language. In many ways, Heisei: Shin Onigashima is even more difficult than the original, as it uses all three Japanese alphabets (while the original only used the phonetic Hiragana).

This guide has been written to help players who are interested in playing the game for themselves, or who simply want to find out what is going on. Instructions are given in on-screen Japanese text (where relevant) alongside translations in English so you know what actions you are performing. Key plot points have also been included so you can follow the events of each story.

Chapters

The game is divided into four parts. The first three focus on the lives of Ringo the dog, Matsunosuke the monkey and Ohana the pheasant, while the final chapter retells the conclusion of the original game, but with all-new mechanics.
