It's like playing Doom as Deadpool in a wild Japanese fever dream. Great story, definitely worth it.

I was looking for a game in japanese culture. + Beautiful Japanese Environment. + Sword and Guns -> I thought you can only use sword to kill demons but we have guns too. + Upgrade -> You can upgrade your body , mind and your weapon along the journey. + Humor Main Character to lit up the atmosphere in game. + Good Storyline. + Enemies design. + You could hide your HUD to go "Photo mode". + You could cut enemies limbs. - Highlight Interact -> Sometime you missed the interact object cause its too small. - Force Close when using Shuriken while fighting Boss Fight.

ドゥーム I've had this game in my library for a long time, but only got through it now :D Pretty cool, funny jokes (Fortune Cookies are very funny), dialogs are fun to listen to. Enemies fly apart, it's fun to shoot! The story is perfect for this type of game. There are easter eggs in the game too, so it makes sense to poke at the map walls. I'm not really a fan of this kind of Asian setting, but overall it was well done. 8 out of 10

Japanese Doom but instead of a silent protagonist Wang is actually pretty funny at times. The fortune cookies are awesome and I highly recommend that you kill every bunny you find. It sounds vicious but their is a fun surprise after killing so many of them.
