60 of 179 · most liked firstThis is a hard one to talk about. There was clearly a lot of passion and effort put into this game and, at first glance, it does look really good. It has a nice art style, a lot of playable characters and a decent story (though the translation is pretty dodgy and for some reason seemed to get worse the further I got into the game). Sadly, the game has many problems mostly related to the gameplay, and even worse, related to some of the game’s core mechanics and design choices. -THE CAMERA-…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game mixes shmup and hack&slash elements for the worse in my opinion. You still have a lot of bullets flying but you are much slower, the camera angle can be against you and stamina systems are a mistake (you get about 3 or 4 dashes every 10 seconds). This game also lacks bombs in the sense that there are no screen clearing abilites. The bombs are special abilities that are tied to characters (which is a plus since the characters are more unique this way). Also if a bullet hits you, you…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I hate it, but it's a good game... kinda. I'm very annoyed by any type of propaganda to buy extra content for games and I'm kinda thrown off by perverted stuff, which is something that is reeeaally present in this one. The enemies are just stupid, there are sinsacks (perverts, basically) going after you naked screaming nonsense like "my waifu!!", penguins telling you to buy DLC (as expected from the same people that made Big Big Battle tbh), kux klux clan incels (idk if they are a reference…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →So... this is a self proclaimed "Danmaku-Shooting-ARPG" Touhou fangame, and I´m not really a fan of ANY of those things, I never beat any touhou game, barely played one (I don´t even rememeber wich one) and left it after the first level or so, I´m not a fan of "ARPG" games like Diablo and I never play Shooters... So let me tell you why this game is awesome: LOTS of characters (more so with the DLC) The game has you playing as Tenshi, a melee focused character in a shooter-ish game, BUT you…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →~ It's a great fanmade touhou game. ~ The option setting contains english (which is a blessing). ~ The boss fights are fun but painful if you play on a higher level. ~ Great soundtracks as expected. ~ Cirno carried me in hard difficulty (from my experience). ~ Overall, 9 out of 10 (the game isn't short).
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →sadly i have to say this game is utterly bad, the script has alot of fanfiction energy and the gameplay is awful. there is alot of "what just happened?" moments even i can't see example: one time i was keeping a stern eye on my character and i know i was nowhere near a poison field and all of sudden i died. this game has no brief I-frames also so you can just get shotgunned easily. bad game and this is the first touhou fangame i legit hate
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →While I somewhat had fun with this game at times I would not recommend it. It is strongly lacking in QoL as for example there are no i-frames so you can just get comboed into oblivion relatively easily. The story was alright but I did not find myself particularly interested in it or reading the wall of text notes scattered about and I also found it hard to pay attention to the story at times due to how dialog can appear in the middle of combat when I'm focused on the fighting. The majority of…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game isn't awful but there are just so many things wrong with it.. The main problem with the game I have is the bloody balancing for the difficulties and the enemies. It is simply nonexistent. I'm pretty sure Hard is described as ""standard"" difficulty for the game. It ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ isnt. Trust me, you don't want to go through Hard nor Lunatic in THIS game. Just pick Normal. Or Easy if you're feeling like you wanna play God today. Tho you may think that I'm being salty cuz Touhou games are made…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The moment Cirno says MUDA MUDA MUDA out of character I should've just quit the game. The storyline doesn't make sense, from the opening a gap opens which is what Yukari does, yet Yukari doesn't appear at all in the game, so Reimu suddenly goes to the Moon and asks Junko for purification? That doesn't make sense considering the gap is made by Yukari, and also when you choose White Reimu, Tenshi is defending the people from outside world like they're heroes despite every single enemy are NEET…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Byakuren becoming Hotline Gensokyo is all that matters.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game really looked like it would be great, and to be fair it looks good, sounds good and feels good to play at first (at least on Hard and above) Then you hit level 7 and this is where the cracks start showing. You get acquainted with the fire chariot thing, they have a ton of health and extremely annoying attacks for example a couple places where they're in close quarter so their projectile attack hits the wall besides you and the AoE stuns you leading to deaths most of the time, or the…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →To start, played all the way up to Lunatic mode. This game has alot of replay value. The storyline is primarily trying to figure out the oddities of whats going on in Gensokyo in which is why finding Reimu becomes of importance to the plot as she is quite familiar with resolving these incidents Lets start with characters: there are at least a dozen of them and each one of them are unique in their own ways so none of them play to alike. Examples being tenshi is a short ranged melee fighter who…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Escort quests in a bullet hell game where the escorts kill themselves the second the quest starts. And that's on Normal Mode. I died several times at the beginning of the same escort quest & it sent me back to the beginning of the level every time so I had to sit through 3 conversations & participate in the tutorial every time. There's no fast way to skip dialogue either. It says holding E (A on 360 controllers) skips scenes but it actually just speeds up the dialogue. I checked online &…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Each character have a different ability set, but those abilities are not documented anywhere in game. As a bullet hell game, not only is there no iframe, enemy attack would even stun and knockback. Whats more is there are hard lock attacks in this game in the form of laser and dash attack, the former can track for about 1,5 screen and the later can track half of the boss arena and can multihit as well.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game froze the first time Cirno showed up.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I played this game twice, once on normal. and again on the same file but on new game plus. and I did all of that just so I had some reasons to make this review. Aside from the occasional bugs of bosses getting stuck. This game is the epitome of unfair. It was unreasonably difficult. and I was on normal difficulty. Some bosses lacked tells, the bright colors although nice, tended to blend together making dodging difficult, zooming in was useless, the dodge move was only useful sometimes because…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very fun. Pew pew game, I recommend Lunatic difficulty, game lasts way longer and it's a lot more fun and intense. Satisfying when defeating boss in Lunatic. Also get Sakuya cuz... kawaii maid.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →soo my cousin being a huge anime fan got me this game for christmas and i wasnt expecting to enjoy it since id never really played a twin stick shooter before and havent ever really been interested in anime. turns out this game is suprisingly enjoyable despite also being extremely difficult. (tried playing on hard and couldnt get past the 4th boss so had to switch to normal halfway through XD the only real issue i found is the different camera angles except the highest one making shooting…

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I would recommend because the gameplay is great, and the difficulty is decent! There's no fancy graphics, animation is non-existent, but it's fun. The reason why I can't recommend however in current state, are the bugs. For such a simple little indie game that a group of students could happily put together, on the 2nd boss after finally beating her on Hard mode, she got stuck in mid air, there was instructions to pickup non existent ammo ... so ya, that's pretty much it. Press Esc and exit…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Difficult for the sake of being difficult. No learning curve. Masochists probably love the Junko fight in particular.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →youmu very op lmao
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game is basicly unplayable for me. I have replayed the same escort mission over 5 times now, every time some random-ass mob spaws from behind and one-shots the escort insantly. I guess the only way to beat this level is to memorize exactly when and from where these mobs spawn? That's extremly bad game design.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Koishi check : DLC
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game seemed promising: - but the gunplay isn't fun - its genuinely way to difficult - the story is a confusing and not immersive, i genuinely started ignoring the walls of texts after stage 4 - the last sigil in the human village stage is utter bs - The Remilia fight is just... ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥... horrible... and unfair Save yourself the time and avoid the game
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →永远消失的幻想乡 ～ The Disappearing of Gensokyo is a fan-made reinterpretation of the Touhou Project universe that deliberately steps away from the series’ traditional vertical bullet-hell shooter format and instead reshapes its core ideas into an isometric action RPG. Developed and published by MyACG Studio, the game stands as both a love letter to Gensokyo and an experiment in genre fusion, attempting to preserve the intensity and identity of danmaku combat while framing it within exploration,…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I used to really like this game back then but as time passed on it really started to rub on me how much unpolished overall it actually is. Trying to play this on Lunatic is like torture with how janky the enemies, the projectiles, your movement, and the hitboxes are. This game has a lot of soul and passion in it, I've beaten it once so I'm sure of it, but the polish is just not there man, this game deserves better...
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Escort mission in bullet hell game is downright evil
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game has the basics of something that could be fun, but playing on the suggested default difficulty (Hard) is an exercise in frustration. While it starts out tame enough, the danmaku style doesn't translate very well into ARG format, particularly where you can die in just a few hits and due to the issue of the game being 3D. The precise depth of projectiles can be hard to discern given they are hovering above the floor at heights that aren't determinable in a split second, when a lot of…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very frustrating, and not in the "touhou is challenging" way. enemy attacks stop you from doing anything, shooting, *dodging* moving USING BOMBS, but the only thing the player's damage does to enemies is sometimes knocks them out of animations, which for most of their attacks just means they arent animation locked, so I hope you like getting 3 attacks worth of bullets sent your way. Tenshi is locked into your party as the "main character" and is one of the less useful characters due to her…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The combat is something I can only describe as carelessly designed. The complete lack of i-frames coupled with the high projectile density & enemy count means it's easy to die instantly, especially on higher difficulties where you will instantly die over small slip ups (Some individual enemies like the kamikaze sinsacks will one-shot you at full health too). On higher difficulties at least, the only realistic way of dealing with groups of enemies is to constantly run away from them & attack…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I can't say I recommend this game, but it would be dishonest to say that I don't The game is unbalanced, grindy, repetitive, short and somewhat p2w, but it is still fun. DLC characters are (for the most part) stronger than most free ones. Later levels feel impossible without the OP DLC characters, or grinding for 2 hours to upgrade your main But despite all of that, the game is still fun. Maybe just chose a lower difficulty setting, at least for the first playthrough What would make this game…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game title is not a grammatical error. The story starts off with Gensokyo disappearing. It hasn't completely disappeared. Plus, progressive verbs can be nouns. Anyway, this game is extremely unforgiving with its in-game currency punishment system. If anything, I think it should be removed. When you die on a stage, you'll lose half of your accumulated game points. This is unfair and redundant, in my opinion. The game punishes hard work instead of rewarding it. If you want to play this game,…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Pretty good game, its got a good selection of characters, funny dialogue, really good music and alright gameplay. But... I may have played this game on hard since the game told me it was the recommended difficulty and omg it BECAME SO HARD. Some of the bosses were so hard to the point I was losing mental health and wanted to slam my head on the keyboard-t6y75hgtyf6bvfuhgt6y57iuhyasfe just like that. Also, I find it finny how the english version progressively gets worse as you keep playing the…

Graphics are good, didn't expect much but still, you get the point. Didn't find story interesting. Didn't care enough to read all of the text later on. Gameplay is, to me, bad. It lacks feedback. Your character doesn't flinch, doesn't get i-frames, not even a hurt sound at all. Enemies are the same also. They don't feel like they just got shot by…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Great Touhou fan game. Lives up to the bullet hell and ball busting difficulty the real Touhou games are known for. Short and sweet, most of the game time will be taken up by the later bosses in the game. Lots of playable characters, albeit some are much better than others. I must say though, the credits list at least 25 people in the proof readers section and the translation gets shaky later in the game and the Unsealed Gensokyo ending is a complete mess of google translate quality…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I want to love the game. The graphics are good and it appears like a lot of effort was put into it, but I can barely get past Cirno on Normal. 75% of the time after defeating her, it doesn't drop her ammo and getting it is necessary to progress past that battle platform. I wish Tenshi's ranged attack actually went out further, so that I could stay a safe distance from bullets. The faeries in the early stage have a crazy range and dying is very easy. Because of the frustration concerning Cirno…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →If you like Touhou you'll most likely enjoy this game, the 3D aspects can sometimes be messy but the game is enjoyable regardless (and difficult if that's what you're looking for).

When we were going through our separation, I felt lost and unhappy. I was self-destructive. One day, I was so angry with everything spiraling out of control that I punched a concrete wall in a moment of overwhelming emotion. This resulted in breaking my fifth metacarpal in my right hand—the hand I worked with, played games with, and used to carry my children to bed—the hand…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Uh where do I start? Main criticisms is gonna be how this game has hit-stun, knock-back and no invincibility frames which makes it horrendous to play as an ARPG. My guess as to why, is the devs couldn't decide if they wanted to make a bullet hell or ARPG so they tried to combine them in an awful way; because even as a bullet hell, the game has RNG elements with item pick ups and bullet spread not to mention that the slanted camera angle that makes it a challenge to determine where your hit-box…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It can be a bit frustrating. The fact that you can get stunned and slowed in a "bullet hell" game is a source of many headaches, however there's nothing a bit of dedication cannot do. I have little to no experience in isometric-RPG type games, and I managed to defeat every boss in the game (on normal) with no hair loss (the trick is to use Marisa). If you are a fan of Tenshi, or Touhou Project in general, then don't think too much and buy the game.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fun game. You get a choice between a lot of characters with very different attacks and the enemies are varied and have very varied attacks. The game really does play like a bullet-hell game. With Byakuren the game plays like a shooter too. Pew pew pew vroom vroom vroom.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is probably the worst game I've played. I'm still going to 100% it because I have no self respect but it's really just awful. If you're going to play it skip all of the dialogue, it's really not worth it.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →all of the game's apparent faults are nullified because byakuren is a playable character in it
