Furi

Melee combat with weapons or fists

Furi is a pure boss-rush duelist where you mix sword combat, parrying and twin-stick shooting in intense one-on-one fights. Each guardian has a distinct style, backed by bold comic-inspired art and a driving electronic soundtrack.

Touhou Kanjuden: Legacy of Lunatic Kingdom

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

You pilot a small ship through dense, colorful bullet patterns and must weave between every attack with pinpoint precision. The story set in the Touhou world is told with plenty of charm and humor, but it is the razor-sharp reflexes that define the experience.

Touhou Shinreibyou: Ten Desires

Fantasy setting

You pilot one of the Touhou heroines through dense bullet-hell stages full of spirits and projectile patterns, weaving between shots with precise movement. The music and Japanese fantasy style give it charm, but the difficulty demands serious practice.

Cuphead

Lavish presentation

A brutally tough boss-rush shooter animated like a 1930s cartoon, where precise dodging, parrying and shooting decide every fight. A swinging big-band jazz score and local co-op round it out.

X-Blades

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A fast-paced hack-and-slash game where heroine Ayumi acrobatically cuts through hordes of dark creatures with her pistol blades. The focus is on flashy combos across linear levels.
