Kunitsu-Gami has the soul of a Japan Studio game. It is exactly the kind of weird and wonderful game that is commercially risky but deeply rewarding that they used to put out.

Kind of stuck on one of the villages toward the end of the game. I've tried a bunch of strategies and it's rough going each time. Admittedly, I kind of suck at tower defence because I rarely engage with the genre, so some of it is my limited strategic approach I suppose.

Jogo bastante viciante e focado principalmente na estratégia e com uma gameplay interessante que mistura um RTS com um hack and slash com defesa de torre. O game tem uma história simples que basicamente consiste em avançar as fases e entre algumas delas você irá enfrentar alguns chefes e cabe a você decidir qual a melhor abordagem para vencer. Gostei muito do jogo pois te força a pensar em maneiras diferentes de concluir os objetivos que cada fase tem e tanto que após zerar fica disponível o new game plus que te deixa jogar novamente do inicio com todos seus upgrade durante o jogo e foi nessa que eu quase fiz todas as conquistas mas me libertei do vicio para dar chance a outros jogos.

In NG+ and 50 hours played and I’m still loving this game. I hope we can get some DLC or some kind of expansion down the line. This IP can take all of my money 😆

I think I needed something like this. It’s stripped down, and lacking the frills of modern game design, but it’s deep at the same time. I’m really enjoying the possibilities of new units and moves along with the constant progression of purifying villages. Ticking all my boxes.

I was already in love with this game, and that was before I knew how it was made. Apparently this is the first in a series of behind the scenes videos that Capcom plans to release about the game.

Every time I receive a new unit, I’m simultaneously excited and stressed. Excited for the strategic possibilities, but stressed about where I’m going to allocate my points for the upcoming fight.

I adore it when game devs try to translate performative arts, such as dance, into gameplay mechanics. Sometime it doesn’t work but sometimes you end up with games like Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess, a game that attempts to bring the ritual art form Kagura to video game audiences.

I adore it when game devs try to translate performative arts, such as dance, into gameplay mechanics. Sometime it doesn’t work but sometimes you end up with games like Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess, a game that attempts to bring the ritual art form Kagura to video game audiences. It’s not uncommon for gamers to call certain challenging game fights “dances” and it’s exciting to see a studio use the opportunity to depict an actual real world form of dance through real-time and strategy combat. I’ve only just scratched the surface, but it’s pretty wonderful so far.

Also, Capcom is really hitting it out of the park this year. When 2024 started I had no idea, nor expectation, that two of my favourite games of the year would be Capcom games. And they are not just enjoyable games, they are mechanically deep games that strong stylistic and design visions. Both Kunitsu-Gami and Dragon's Dogma 2 are two deeply compelling games that are an extreme pleasure to play.

Played through the demo for this, it's by far the prettiest tower defense game I've ever seen. But beyond the visuals it doesn't feel much different from old browser-based tower defense games from like 2003, and the time limit on setup phases between fights is kinda a nuisance. The 3rd-person combat aspect isn't especially fun, either.

Passing on the full game for now, but maybe I'll pick it up on sale down the road.

Capcom really seems to be having a great year for weird and wonderful titles. Also a year of games that I didn't think I'd want to play but have grow increasingly curious about over time.

Capcom really seems to be having a great year for weird and wonderful titles. Also a year of games that I didn't think I'd want to play but have grow increasingly curious about over time. I didn't think I'd want to play, nor enjoy, Dragon's Dogma II but it proved to be one of my favourite games of 2024. Now Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess looks like another potential winner despite being a genre I'm pretty iffy about (Tower Defence). I just started Dungeons of Hinterberg, but I'm really tempted to grab this on sale at Fanatical nonetheless.

It has really clicked with me, but I can see how some people might not like it. I guess it’s kinda niche being a tower-defense-action-strategy. These are my thoughts after playing 15 hours. I’m determined to see it to 100% completion and it may well be my personal GOTY.

So Capcom did a gameplay reveal for this one and I'm... Kinda underwhelmed.

Based on the initial trailers, it seemed like it would be maybe something like Onimusha. Which would rule. Alas, it's not.

What it is is basically the dinosaur town defence minigame from Ys VIII. You fight alongside AI companions on a small battlefield and repel waves of enemies.

I'm kinda not sure who this is for? Because I like strategy. I like horror. I like hitting things with a sword. But this just looks kinda lame. The visuals are AMAZING, the art style is AMAZING, but the gameplay is just... Weird.
