Sequel to Shikigami no Shiro, SS2 is a vertical-scrolling shooter with sci-fi elements. As in most games in the genre, the game puts you in control of a small fighter as you attempt to make your way past several stages filled with enemy ships charging and attacking you in different patterns. The game features 7 distinct characters with psychic powers (which manifest in-game as bomb-type attacks and other special moves) and unique fighters, and the game features a story mode for each character, in which they have different dialogue and plot-sequences for each boss fight. Also included is a weapon system similar to Psyvariar's in which you can enhance your power and rate of fire by scraping incoming bullets. Read less

Best worst translation ever, no challengers

A very hard shmup, punishingly so at higher levels and difficulties where the bullet hell gets just overwhelming.

However this is well worth playing for the funniest weirdest translations ever issued.

Sample include "...I like girls, but now, it's about justice." "You have two choices: beaten then caught, or caught then beaten." but really it's the overall experience that makes …
