    I can only recommend this game for its approach to Japanese culture in a fun way, allowing you to learn a little more about it. In addition, its varied gameplay combines elements of tower defense, strategy, unit management and RPG overtones in a unique and fascinating way. Without a doubt, one of the great surprises of the year.

    Kinutsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess marks the return of the more experimental Capcom. A fun game, loaded with interesting mechanics and somewhat challenging if you're not familiar with strategy. It may not be a videogame for everyone, but everyone has the mission to try this interesting and fascinating proposal.

    Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess is unlike anything else you'll play in 2024, and that's why it's one of the year's best games.

    Capcom has succeeded in revitalising the tower defense genre in a surprising way thanks to the setting with Japanese mythology and lots of variety. Thanks to the many upgrades, different unit and monster types, a satisfying progression system and great boss battles, I spent many hours mesmerised by the extremely atmospheric campaign. The reward after battles is that I experience scenes of peace and harmony afterwards. In this way, the game even conveys something of the Japanese philosophy of life. And what tower defense game can you say that about?

    Kunitsugami: Path of the Goddess is a uniquely artistic experience that blends traditional Japanese aesthetics with modern gameplay. Its distinct style and imaginative world make it stand out, but its unconventional approach may not resonate with everyone. The game’s originality is both its greatest strength and a potential barrier for those seeking a more familiar experience. It’s a must-try for those who appreciate creativity and innovation in gaming, though it might feel too eccentric for some.

    Kunitsu-Gami continues the trend of gameplay excellence that has blessed all of Capcom’s recent releases. There are just some parts outside that feel like they should be more streamlined.

    Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess is the guarantee of discovering an original game wrapped in a particularly stylish universe. We like the idea of ​​integrating traditional dances into a world of Japanese folklore which mixes with very elegant choreography and a particularly pleasant bestiary to discover. The game reserves some good surprises to renew a gameplay loop that maintains the same structure from start to finish, missing the boat in some of its aspects, such as balancing and the progression of the main character. Kunitsu-Gami finally proves to be rather clever in its strategic proposal, with its different systems, its day/night cycle and its limited resources. An experience that will fill your summer for a good twenty hours.
