About

"Double Spoiler" is a game where you play as the newspaper reporter Tengu Shamemaru and must update your paper by psychically damaging yokai and humans with your writing. The goal is to take photographs of bosses by avoiding enemy attacks and obstacles without running out of film. Successfully capturing a boss as a photograph depends on whether or not they are fully in frame and results in higher scores or unlocking special items if the shot is particularly impressive.
