There are a ton of bugs
There is already a Spa Egg in your inventory when you start the game.
You can't pick up the guest card.
The eggs are not in the basket, but scattered around.
You can’t enter the earth stone without picking it up first.
When you solve the earth stone, there is no way to leave.
You can't throw cucumbers into the pond.

I suspect there are more issues, but these were the only ones that I could find. They obscure the rest. It’s shame, because you can really tell a lot of thought and effort went into this

Once you go into the Hot Springs and turn around you see the trophy that says "Complete the Game". Once you click that the game literally finishes right then and there, no matter how far into the game you are (I just finished the Tea Room, got into the Hot Springs, solved the "Paintings, slow to fast" puzzle and was looking around for anymore lotion bottles when I discovered this.

My GF couldnt even get past the first magic room.
We place all 5 teas in the right square, got 5 green bulbs all lit up.
And ZERO response.
Stuck in the room forever.

Also yes, the guest card is really hard to pickup. The box cover also not easy to open.

So, I got stuck here too, until I reread the instructions; the lights will light up when ANY bowl is in the right place.

Same thing happened to me, I was really enjoying it, but now I know the ending.

The lava room breaks, and prevents to go further after the pan stops moving

Apart from the previously mentioned bugs (e.g. guest card hard to pick up and then turning invisible) the gold ball wouldn't stay inside the floating basin. it just fell through the bottom each time.

The lotions in the shower room fell through the counter and some of them disappeared, presumably before I got there, leading to the incorrect number of lotions in the room to be found.

The first stone also appeared before I went into the stone's room, enabling me to pick it up, and once I completed the puzzle, and clicked the stone to leave, the stone fell out of my inventory and disappeared. I was then instantly teleported out of the stone's puzzle room, without the stone, and unable to progress.

This room suffers from immense physics problems, which is a shame. Lotion bottles glitch through terrain so you can never do that puzzle. I completed the tea puzzles twice, but even though all lamps are lit up, I never get an exit. Etc. A real shame, since it is a gorgeous map.

the tea room solution for others: you are supposed to move THE SHADE bowl when the sign says so, so you leave the one you moved on its place and move the shade bowl 2 squares

but after i solved it, there was no rock anywhere :(

It seems this doesn't work for me as intended, unfortunately, because the scenery looks nice.

I had already a spa egg in the inventory when you start the game.
I couldn't pick up the guest card.
In the tea room I simply could pick up a stone and hand it over to the woman. Nothing happened , but my character said something along the lines of "It did teleport me" - no, it didn't.
Next I gave the egg (that I already had) to the woman and found myself in a room eating with her and the boy (my ramen bowl was on the ground). That's when I quit, because it did not make sense... now when I read here I realizise, that this bugged out for me.

Got stuck in the wall in the lantern maze after the lava platform.

I feel like it would have been a good game if it had been smaller and cleaner. The scope was too much, which made it extra frustrating that I spent a *stupid* amount of time in this game just to be unable to complete it due to a bug.

Platform: Steam Deck

Bugs:
- All lotions populated on the floor under the vanity instead of on the vanity, and there were only 5 cow lotions in my game instead of 6.
- It is difficult to find the correct spot to push the kanji buttons when you need to deselect a symbol.
- I got physically stuck after crossing the lava and was unable to continue.

Not quite bugs, but bad user experience:
- The locker PIN code. The keycard may say you are in “Cabin 07”, but literally everything else says you are in “Cabin 7”- the physical key you pick up in your cabin, the cabin door, the directional sign, the map on the lobby wall, the locker number itself… The cabin is Cabin 7. The keycard is incorrect and players are supposed to intuit that the PIN code is using this incorrect number.
- It should be clear when players hover over the calligraphy inkpad that it’s a usable object. There’s no indication that it’s a usable object- or even that it’s an inkpad- unless you’re randomly waving my calligraphy pen around in a desperate hope to hit something in that room.
- The kappa shell puzzle pieces and tea bowls are annoyingly slow to move.
- A tea room puzzle lightbulb should not turn green if the bowl is still required to be pushed by another bowl. It may be in the correct spot for the given instructions for that bowl, but it is not in the correct spot. Seeing all lightbulbs green with no indication that the puzzle isn’t complete is confusing and makes players think it’s a bug. The bulb should turn yellow indicating that the instruction has been completed but the bowl is still not in its final spot.
- The peg above the kanji puzzle isn’t noticeably part of the puzzle, and there’s no indication that players can or should hang the lantern there unless they happen to be waving it.
- While the thought process behind the kanji puzzle isn’t super clear, it can be reasonably figured out. However, the start and end of lines are not well-defined making the solution extremely difficult, even when you know what you are looking for. I was beyond ready to quit at this point.
- It is confusing that the tea puzzle stone sits on the lobby desk the whole time. I kept thinking I was missing a stone because it wasn’t in my inventory.
