About this game

Castle Shikigami 2 is a vertical-scrolling shooter sequel to Shikigami no Shiro, combining arcade-style action with sci-fi elements. Players pilot a small fighter through stages filled with enemy ships and varied attack patterns.

The game features seven distinct characters, each with psychic powers represented by bomb-type attacks and other special moves, as well as unique fighters. Every character has a dedicated story mode with different dialogue and plot sequences during boss fights.

Its weapon system allows players to enhance their power and rate of fire by scraping incoming bullets, adding a risk-and-reward element to its shooting action.
