For a game that is all about exploring the stagnation of creativity and resistance to change by delving into the primordial past, this newest entry in Gensokyo's saga really is a gift package of change and wonder neatly wrapped up with nostalgic patterns and an experimental feel. ZUN lied about the "back to the roots" approach with this game, as there's definitely nothing old-fashioned about Fossilised Wonders despite the themes. Featuring the new Wonder Stone summon mechanic, similarly to the UFO system from Undefined Fantastic Object it allows you to break up the normal game flow with special summonable enemies that siphon up items and reward you for killing them with more resources and kindly clear the screen for you a little. Unlike UFOs however, the process of summoning Wonder Stones is far less hazardous and their presence is usually more of a help rather than a detriment to you. Despite this Touhou 20 has exceedingly brutal difficulty, probably THE most difficult in the series barring Touhou 15, particularly due to a few flaws in the mechanics-- most of which has been patched up since the demo release. Between the colourful beatings though there's Paradise; and it's name is Our Gensokyo. What more needs be said? Support your local Japanese ex-alcoholic bullet hell legend by buying his soundtrack, and get a free, WONDERful game in the same purchase!

Kind of funny but also tragic seeing the reviews complaining about AI backgrounds from the demo... Not realizing this entire game's story is about AI creating a world of no progress & poisoning information (and I mean directly about, not even metaphorically) Anyways, awesome game, easily my favorite since 15! Very nice music, very nice story/lore, decent enough danmaku, and overall more interesting than the last few (of course, once the English patch (google THCRAP!) is out it'll be much more enjoyable)

hesitant to give a thumbs up because of the ai backgrounds, but it's still a good game. way more quality than the last few. i will be a little pissed if zun uses ai in his next game tho. if you're turned off by ai but still want to play the game i'd just get it from the shrine (iykyk)

I really like the wonder stones gimmick, yellow moon is my favorite one even if it feels much harder than any other games, even on easy. I managed to do a single run and almost 1cc but got killed at the final boss, I think I like the stage music more than the bosses but maybe I just have to get used to them, final boss music was pretty neat. The surprise on stage 5 was really good. I grew to like the wonder stone enemies because they give out free resources, their patterns aren't really as annoying as many of the enemies after stage 4. AI content? Who cares, the game is great and I'm too distracted with dodging bullets to notice about backgrounds. Great gane, love it way more than 19 and I think it might be surpassing 18
