A classic Touhou bullet-hell shooter where you weave through dense danmaku patterns as a shrine maiden. The Faith-meter scoring system and memorable soundtrack make it a fan favorite.

Shikhondo: Soul Eater

Shooting and gunplay

You pick either the Grim Reaper or a girl and hunt escaped yokai from limbo to free the souls they have absorbed, then reseal them. It is an intense bullet-hell shooter steeped in Japanese myth and demanding reflexes.

Knightmare

Shooting and gunplay

An early Konami MSX classic: as the knight Popolon you fight upward through vertically scrolling levels full of enemies to rescue Princess Aphrodite. It blends shoot-'em-up action with a medieval fantasy setting and power-ups.

Touhou Youyoumu: Perfect Cherry Blossom

Challenging difficulty

A classic bullet-hell shooter from the Touhou series where you pick a character with distinct shot types and weave through dense, elaborate bullet patterns. The Cherry Point scoring system rewards risky play, backed by a famously beloved soundtrack.
