Description

A new tale of the Kami awaits...

Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess is a unique Japanese-inspired, single player Kagura Action Strategy game.

The game takes place on a mountain covered by defilement.
During the day, purify the villages and prepare yourself for sundown.
During the night, protect the Maiden against the hordes of the Seethe.

Repeat the day and night cycle until you cleanse the mountain of defilement and return peace to the land.

Unique Japanese-inspired World
The setting is Mt. Kafuku—a mountain covered in defilement. The game offers a taste of Japanese culture, including Kagura dance, masks, as well as the music that plays in the background.

The Seethe
The Seethe emerge from the Torii Gates to the other world when the sun sets. This enemy, which has a variety of different abilities, attacks at night under the cover of darkness, targeting the Maiden. The director's ideas and attention to detail have been packed into the design that presents the setting of this game.

Exhilarating Sword Dance Action
The main character, Soh, wields a sword to protect the Maiden of the mountain, Yoshiro, as she confronts the Seethe. Do not be intimidated by the enemy's array of attacks, and slay them with dance-like sword attacks!

A Fusion of Action and Strategy.
Soh's battles are not fought alone, but with the help of villagers who have been bestowed roles. What placements and roles will be most effective? Where will the villagers fight? And which enemies will Soh focus on? Constant changes during battle will test your strategy and tactics.

Purify the Torii Gates of the Defilement.
If you can survive the Seethe attacks until dawn and lead Yoshiro to a Torii Gate while the sun is still up, you can purify it with her Kagura dance. Restore peace to the mountain villages!

I appreciate Capcom trying their hand on a new, smaller IP. The game is an action / tower defence game where you, the protagonist, has a wider range of actions to do, while you command simpler troops who have limited set of skills to defend the priestess-character from an incoming horde of demons. The base game is addictive, and teaches new mechanics and roles for units just at the right intervals without it

Previously completed on Xbox It's a shame Capcom didn't market this game enough (which they admitted themselves). It's an excellent blend of great art direction, music and gameplay. And yet it was largely overlooked despite being praised by both players and critics. Remember Sanctum? Kunitsu-Gami resembles a tower defense game where you assign roles to units and also take part in combat yourself. Combat is center
