Description

A new tale of the Kami awaits...

Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess is a unique Japanese-inspired, single player Kagura Action Strategy game.

The game takes place on a mountain covered by defilement.
During the day, purify the villages and prepare yourself for sundown.
During the night, protect the Maiden against the hordes of the Seethe.

Repeat the day and night cycle until you cleanse the mountain of defilement and return peace to the land.

Unique Japanese-inspired World
The setting is Mt. Kafuku—a mountain covered in defilement. The game offers a taste of Japanese culture, including Kagura dance, masks, as well as the music that plays in the background.

The Seethe
The Seethe emerge from the Torii Gates to the other world when the sun sets. This enemy, which has a variety of different abilities, attacks at night under the cover of darkness, targeting the Maiden. The director's ideas and attention to detail have been packed into the design that presents the setting of this game.

Exhilarating Sword Dance Action
The main character, Soh, wields a sword to protect the Maiden of the mountain, Yoshiro, as she confronts the Seethe. Do not be intimidated by the enemy's array of attacks, and slay them with dance-like sword attacks!

A Fusion of Action and Strategy.
Soh's battles are not fought alone, but with the help of villagers who have been bestowed roles. What placements and roles will be most effective? Where will the villagers fight? And which enemies will Soh focus on? Constant changes during battle will test your strategy and tactics.

Purify the Torii Gates of the Defilement.
If you can survive the Seethe attacks until dawn and lead Yoshiro to a Torii Gate while the sun is still up, you can purify it with her Kagura dance. Restore peace to the mountain villages!

It's weird. It's fun. It's insanely creative. It's also really difficult to properly describe without writing an essay. I wish more AAA games were like this.

In the opening hours with Kunitsu-Gami (a name I can not remember no matter how hard I try) I was in love. Minimal story getting in the way of gameplay that's wrapped in a lovely art direction with a soundtrack to

fun at first but can be really repetitive after a while, especially during NG+. If you like grinding (like me) it can be a good game to play while watching something else. All the bosses are kind of boring and require

Sadly underrated game but I think it's lack of marketing is what allowed it to be how it is: it feels like an indie game with AAA budget, so im guessing they were allowed to make whatever they wanted but with very

Very fun game with a unique combination of what is essentially payload pushing and tower defense as you command villagers that you save during the daytime to fight with you during the night. The game is mostly worth the

This game carries out it vision without a single compromise. Seeing a major studio fully back something this uniquely artistic and avoiding safe bets that have become common everywhere is a rare treat in an industry
