Drift down from the Celestial Realm

Flow with acrobatic grace and agility through a mysterious world of myth and legend in Bō: Path of the Teal Lotus, a colorful hand-drawn adventure inspired by Japanese folklore. 

Undertake a mystical journey as Bō, a celestial blossom (fox tentaihana) descended from the heavens to play a key role in an ancient and mysterious ritual. Use your legendary bō staff to bounce and glide fluidly through an otherworldly realm of hand-drawn, dreamlike landscapes, strange and adorable yokai, and massive monsters summoned from ancient legends of Japan.

Discover a mysterious and
haunted world 

Explore a diverse, interconnected world filled with haunted castles, thriving cities, and more strange and wondrous places in a 2.5D side-scrolling action-platformer with Metroidvania elements.

Find your flow

Navigate the world’s platforming challenges with acrobatic precision, elegance, and finesse. Use Bō’s distinctive move-and-reset system to reach new areas efficiently or recover when your footing flounders.

Master new staff transformations

Brew and drink arcane teas to unlock powerful new abilities for Bō’s shapeshifting staff. Mash foes with the Mochi Mallet, unlock new movement techniques like the Lotus Dash and Grappling Gun, and more.

Collect powerful Daruma allies

Each colorful Daruma doll you discover can be upgraded and summoned to the battlefield, where these adorable and powerful allies can deploy spells and other spectacular abilities to aid you in combat.

A spirited, mythic cast

Engage with bizarre and adorable yokai, and challenge massive, awe-inspiring monsters drawn from Japanese myth—all brought to life with traditional hand-drawn 2D frame-by-frame animation.

Drawn from a dream

Explore a vibrant 2.5D vision that blends the beauty of paintings, the personality of illustration, and the elegance of papercraft, with a soundtrack mixing traditional Japanese and modern orchestral music.
