A lot less horror than I was imagining, but a lot better puzzles than I was imagining. Probably the best RPGMaker horror-style game in terms of actual gameplay, and that's a breath of fresh air for sure. Also gay women

Amazing game, very touching story that actually made me shed some tears. I'll just add one recommendation for Linux players: make sure to explicitly pick Proton as the compatibility tool from the library page. By default it will pick the Steam Linux Runtime which will look fine at first but breaks achievements and causes some gameplay bugs that aren't there with Proton.

Pretty solid RPGmaker style horror/puzzle, set in the Touhou universe during the album stories (so a bit in the future). The artwork is solid, and I especially like the spritework. Maribel's sprite is excellent and I liked Renko's too. Level design is solid but you revisit the same regions with different puzzles so it doesn't feel quite as varied as it could be. Most of the puzzles were easy to figure out or made sense in hindsight, but there were a few really obscure ones. I liked the darker, creepier take on a lot of Gensokyo's residents, some deviation from canon but the directions taken mostly make sense. There are two choices for endings right at the end, [spoiler]neither one is a good ending for both protagonists, one or the other will not be happy[/spoiler]. Techwise it was fine, I ran the first half on my SteamDeck, the default controls worked perfectly. The second half was on my desktop and the PS4 controller mapping had some issues that I was able to resolve. The Linux version also doesn't send out achievements properly, so switching to the Proton/Windows version worked, and there's a sync achievements option in the settings to grant what you missed. Win…

A really great touhou fan game!

A fantastically told, emotional rollercoaster of a story full of fanservice for fans of Touhou extended universe (am I allowed to call it that). Even if you're not familiar with the central characters, this is a great game.
