    In the suburbs of Tokyo's H City is a private institution called "Konoehara Academy," which was established over 100 years ago. There were rumors that every 10 years, the dead would creep into the academy and spread a curse.

    Around the end of summer, some students of the academy died an inexplicable death in the academy garden...

    While a police investigation was unable to confirm the nature of the incident, many rumors spread among the students regarding their tragic death, such as "it was the work of the dead" and "they were summoned by spirits."

    In order to regain a sense of composure within the academy, the chairman requested an investigation from the Kujou house, which has been involved in rituals since ancient times.

    A strange and sullen middle-aged man able to "examine" the supernatural, the head of the Kujou house begins an undercover investigation as a temporary teacher in order to determine the truth of the rumors.

    And to experience the terrible curse from the dead that has crept into the academy....

    Spirit Hunter: Death Mark II is a sequel that decides to change a few elements to offer a more streamlined, less frustrating and generally overall better experience than the previous entries in the series. But there is a negative that comes with making the game easier to play and changing the investigation elements to be side-scrolling. While I enjoy this change, the lack of variety in the environments means it can become dreary during the slowly-paced elements between the interesting and climatic parts of each chapter. That said, the main element, the visual novel storytelling, brings a compelling horror tale that blends twists on Japanese folklore with a modernised setting to offer a strong atmospheric story with twists and turns to the end. Spirit Hunter: Death Mark II is a game for visual novel fans who enjoy tales about the supernatural with adult themes.
