Inuyasha: The Secret of the Cursed Mask is based on an anime series of the same name. You can play either as a teenager boy or a teenager girl, named by the player. The two scenarios are very similar and basically follow the same story: you live in modern-day Tokyo and one day discover a strange symbol in an old storehouse. As a result, you are transported to medieval Japan. You encounter the half-demon Inuyasha, who introduces you to Kagome Higurashi, the heroine of the anime series. Together you embark on a journey to retrieve scattered pieces of the Sacred Jewel and to find a way to get back home. This is a fairly traditional Japanese-style RPG with random encounters and turn-based combat viewed from over-the-shoulder perspective. You can attack physically, use special techniques, and power up to combo attacks with multiple characters. Read less

I loved the animation of the cinematics and how beautiful all the scenarios are, which are hand-drawn. The dialogue of the main characters is dubbed, as well as that of the most important …

The story of the game is completely original but captures the essence of Inuyasha so well that it could easily be an official arc in the anime. I loved the animation of the cinematics and how beautiful all the scenarios are, which are hand-drawn. The dialogue of the main characters is dubbed, as well as that of the most important NPCs. The game is simply beautiful, you can appreciate the love with which it was made. The only thing that stops me from giving it the highest rating is the slowness of the battles, they are really so slow and so invasive or repetitive that they end up hindering your experience with the game. enter image description here
