Marisa of Liartop Mountain Reviews
I’ve played more Touhou fangames than I can count, and Marisa of Liartop Mountain still stands out as one of the best in years. Its runtime may be short and its navigation a little frustrating, but the stunning visuals, immersive voice work, evolving gameplay, and surprisingly deep themes make it unforgettable. If you’re already a Touhou fan, passing on this one would be a huge mistake.
Marisa of Liartop Mountain offers an interesting take on the Touhou universe, blending puzzle and RPG elements with the feel of a narrated tabletop game. Despite its rigid structure, which requires frequent backtracking (revisiting areas to complete objectives) and distances the game a bit from its initial proposal, discovering solutions to challenges and managing the dice in combat provides a pleasant, albeit limited, experience.
