Every step you take, the yokai move too. A Japanese turn-based dungeon crawler. Fall, keep your soul shards, and dive deeper.

Every step you take, the yokai move too. A Japanese turn-based dungeon crawler where thinking beats reflexes.

You are an onmyoji, descending into a lair of a hundred demons with a blade and a handful of paper talismans. Rush ahead and you get surrounded. Creep along and your health runs out. Every single step is a decision.

■ Three steps to play

1. Tap or swipe to move. Every move you make, the yokai move too.
2. Strike what is beside you, throw a talisman at what is far away. Never punch a thorned yokai.
3. Find the stairs and go deeper. A boss waits on every tenth floor.

■ Falling is never wasted You lose your items when you go down, but the soul shards you gathered come home with you. Spend them at the shrine to permanently raise your health and attack, then dive deeper than last time.
