The mysterious Yokai Monogatari has been opened, unleashing Yokai into the world! Help Miko seal them away and restore peace to the village.

Play cards to summon animals with different effects, and collect sake to keep them on the field. Since Miko can't do any direct damage, be smart about where to place the summoned animals!
