“In my opinion, it's a perfect blend of danmaku and roguelike, having really fun gameplay, beautiful art, and stellar music.”
“Never thought a Touhou roguelike could be this much fun and so well executed. Every run feels very different. I love the official Touhou games, but I feel like I can only handle up to 3 runs a day max just because I'm not the biggest fan of replaying the early stages over and over. This game solved that issue for me with numerous items at your disposal, and the curses and wards add some very welcomed spice to gameplay.”
“It's a full-fledged roguelike bullet hell shmup with a strong selection of items, a solid gameplay loop, and a bright future ahead from early access to release.”
“There are still many issues that need to be addressed (performance and visibility, among others) and more content is to come, but overall it is very much worth trying if you're looking for a roguelike that scratches the itch, a shmup with unique mechanics, or a mix of both.”

“Very unique gameplay with loads of charm. There is an intense emphasis on grazing (and I'm terrible at grazing). Spell cards are only captured via grazing a lot, which is interesting.”
