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, it's more enjoyable with the English patch - google THCRAP!)

I have purchased and played all Touhou Project games except for the PC-98 version at Japanese doujin shops, but since I got a SteamDeck, I have been purchasing them on Steam from now on. I am very satisfied with how comfortable it is to play on the SteamDeck. This game requires a different approach than previous titles, which was a little confusing at first. First of all, the default Common Magic Stone equipment makes 1cc significantly more difficult than previous Touhou Project games. I recommend starting by collecting all types of magic stones. Once you reach the stage 4th with the main magic stone equipped, you will obtain that magic stone and be able to equip it with Wide Shot, Narrow Shot, and Assist. By forming an equipment with the types of magic stones you are good at, you can play at roughly the same difficulty level as the previous Touhou Project games. For reference, here is the formation I initially used for Normal 1cc: * Main: Yellow Subterranean (イエローサブタレイニアン) * Narrow Shot: Scarlet Devil (スカーレットデビル) * Wide Shot: Snow Blossom (スノーブロッサム) * Assist: Creature Red (クリーチャーレッド) Since the enemies are quite tough, use Scarlet Red, which has high attack power, for Narrow Shot. Another thing to consider is to make as many 異変敵 (abnormal enemies) appear as possible. By using Wide Show with Snow Blossom, it becomes easier to connect combos and earn 異変値 (abnormal values). Equipping Yellow Subterranean as your main weapon is effective in reducing accidents, and is also useful for earning 異変値 (anomaly values) in boss battles. Assist's Creature Red helps increase the activation frequency of Yellow Subterranean.

As always, it's programmed by a drunkard, but the gameplay and music are outstanding.

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!
