Touhou SouzinengiV -The Genius of Sappheiros-

Souzinengi V is a full-scale RPG that carries on the traditions of RPGs from the good old days. It was made with the challenge of seeing just how interesting battles could be with standard, 5-character, turn-based combat, and whether its character growth system would be fun while remaining simple.

About the Game

About This Game
Touhou Souzinengi V is a full-scale RPG that carries on the traditions of RPGs from the good old days.
It was made with the challenge of seeing just how interesting battles could be with standard, 5-character, turn-based combat,
and whether its character growth system would be fun while remaining simple.
It's an RPG where progress involves figuring out enemy weakness and patterns,
then picking the appropriate party members and skills for the situation, as opposed to just bruteforcing by grinding levels.
It's packed with plenty of content to challenge yourself with, too.
If you include collecting all the items and enemy skills, there's over a hundred hours of fun to be had.
Even just reaching the final boss provides you with dozens of hours,
ensuring that it won't let you down when it comes to its volume.
