Critic Reviews for Touhou Spell Carnival

Touhou Spell Carnival does a decent job blending RPG mechanics into the bullet-hell formula of Touhou Project. It can get overwhelming with everything on screen and having to protect five characters.

Touhou Spell Carnival Limited Edition is such a wonderful package of a unique and rewarding strategic game that comes with a box full of brilliant physical extras. It's such a great set that I'm going to visit IFI's Online Store more often and see what other goodies await.

Touhou Spell Carnival delivers the easy serotonin from moe anime alongside an interesting, innovative and rewarding gameplay with good progression. It's notable that the game aims at a very specific niche: Touhou fans who also enjoy tactic combat. However, those who meet this criteria will definitely find great pleasure in everything the game has to offer.

Overall, Touhou Spell Carnival turned out to be a pleasant surprise. I wasn’t sure how they would blend bullet-hell mechanics with RPG elements and strike a balance, but they managed to pull it off. Fortunately, the game offers difficulty levels that make it easier to experience the story without getting stuck replaying challenging levels repeatedly. However, for me, the real highlight was embracing the challenge. My enjoyment came from overcoming the difficulty, mastering my characters’ moves and abilities, and optimizing my team composition.
