If you’ve been craving a fresh twist on the roguelike formula, here’s something worth downloading: Tsukuyomi: The Divine Hunter just hit iOS, Android, and Steam, available in 240 countries. Developed by the legendary Kazuma Kaneko alongside COLOPL Inc., the game brings some serious JRPG vibes, fused with smart card-based combat mechanics. And the best part? Full cross-save support — pick up where you left off whether you’re on your phone or your PC. No more losing progress just because your train ride ended.
At the heart of the story is HASHIRA — a sleek, ominous skyscraper standing tall over Tokyo. It’s totally abandoned… well, except for the fact that every floor is crawling with monsters. Naturally, someone’s got to clean house, and that job falls to an elite crew known as Tsukuyomi. That’s you, basically.
Right out of the gate, you’ll have two playable characters, each with their own storylines and chapter arcs. The devs have already confirmed that two more heroes are on the way with future updates, so there’s more on the horizon. Gameplay-wise, this is a turn-based JRPG where every action is card-driven — you manage HP and regenerating mana to unleash combos and take down some seriously creepy bosses. Think fast, though: every decision can make or break a fight.
What makes Tsukuyomi stand out is how it handles player choices. It’s not your typical auto-play anime mobile game. You actually get meaningful dialogue options that branch the narrative. For example, do you sacrifice a card to refresh your hand? Or take a hit to your HP in exchange for in-game currency? These choices don’t just add depth — they add real tension.
Truly, it feels new. The art looks cool, the music hits hard, and the fight is smart yet quick. It’s that game you jump into for a short time and then see that an hour has passed.
Have you already tried Tsukuyomi? Or still on the fence? Let’s break down the strategy and best character picks in the comments — your hot takes are welcome.
