Onigotchi Save File Location and Editing Guide

Onigotchi Save File Location and Editing Guide

By Editorial / September 25, 2026 / Guides / 2 minutes of reading

In Onigotchi guide, I show where I find the Onigotchi save file and how I edit its values. I also list the variables I have identified so far, including vitality, strength, dexterity, money, and births.

Save File Location

I find the Onigotchi save file at:

%localappdata%\Onigotchi\save.ini

I can also access it manually through:

C:\Users\YOUR_USERNAME\AppData\Local\Onigotchi\save.ini

The easiest way I find it is to press Win + R and enter:

%localappdata%\Onigotchi

I press Enter and find the file:

save.ini

KNOWN VARIABLES

These are the variables I have identified so far:

  • Variable 0 = Vitality
  • Variable 1 = Strength
  • Variable 2 = Dexterity
  • Variable 6 = Money
  • Variable 26 = Births

HOW TO EDIT IT

I completely close Onigotchi.

Then, I make a backup copy of save.ini.

After that, I open save.ini with a text editor. I use Visual Studio Code.

I find the variable I want to modify.

I change its value and save the file and I launch Onigotchi and check the changes.

EXAMPLE

If I have: 0="10.000000"

I can change it to: 0="300.000000"

This modifies my vitality. I can modify the other stats in the same way by using their corresponding variable number.

MORE VARIABLES

I am still investigating what the remaining variables in save.ini represent.

If I discover what another variable does, I can add it to this guide. I hope this helps me experiment with my Onigotchi saves.
