A gorgeous, atmospheric Tokyo steeped in Japanese folklore, held back by repetitive combat, a bland story and a heavy collectathon. Skip it if you need deep gameplay.
Great for
Japan and yokai fans who enjoy atmospheric exploration and collecting, ideally bought on sale
Main risk
Combat and open-world chores get repetitive fast, and the story is shallow
