View of the world

　The setting is Kafukuyama, which is rich in nature and where the gods live. Suddenly, something like black smoke covers the mountain, and a “defilement” that threatens people’s lives occurs.

　The player takes on the role of Sou, the main character, and guides the “generation” of shrine maidens who possess the power of exorcism, purifying each village and restoring peace.

Actual game play footage

　During the daylight hours, she saves and cooperates with the villagers, and at night, when the gates of another world open, she protects the shrine maiden from the strange creatures that attack. This day and night cycle is repeated to rid the village of its impurities and restore peace.

　Villagers have various positions, and can be placed freely to a certain extent. In preparation for a night attack, it seems important to position them in a way that makes it easier to fight.
