Susanoo has lost his divine power and is cast into Nakatsukuni. He must battle samurai and demons summoned from across time, regain his strength, and ultimately challenge the eight-headed dragon Yamata-no-Orochi to save Kushinada.
Fight through procedurally generated stages where layouts, enemies, and rewards change between runs. Defeated foes can drop Combat Scrolls, which provide techniques such as slices, thrusts, jumps, and elemental effects.
Combine techniques to build and equip custom attacks and chained combos. Defeating legendary warriors can also reward weapons and armor with status effects; runs feed into longer-term progression, though some equipment can be lost when you fall.
Players often enjoy experimenting with the attack builder, combining techniques into distinctive movesets, and finding satisfying ways to handle groups of enemies. Reviews also praise the Japanese mythological setting and the range of weapons and characters. Some players find the systems hard to learn, the early progression punishing, or the stages and combat repetitive; a smaller set mention control or camera frustrations.
