{"product_id":"gurei","title":"Gurei","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGurei is an unforgiving samurai action game. Drawing from classic Japanese \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003esamurai cinema, Gurei pairs hand-drawn art and fluid animation with a punishing, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003echoice-driven combat system. Players take the role of Rei, a human spirit bound to \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ehunt the Kami — ancient entities of nature drawn from Japanese mythology — in \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eany order they choose, with every victory unlocking a new ability and pulling Rei \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003edeeper into the fracture between the human and spirit realms. Rei, the main \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003echaracter, is a human spirit bound with the challenging duty of defeating mystical \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eentities of nature, the Kami, to obtain their power. The game won’t hold the \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eplayer’s hand, leaving it up to them to discover and conquer this fantastic handdrawn world that is gray, both metaphorically and literally.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eYou are free to pick your fights against the Kami in any order. The game features \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ea dynamic difficulty system where each enemy strength is defined by the player’s \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003echosen path. This means that the very same Kami fought at the very beginning \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ecould also be the final boss in a different route. Hope to never leave the one you \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003estruggle most to fight last!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBesides sword attacks, dodges, head stomps and other basic abilities, Rei will \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003elearn a completely new skill for each defeated Kami. Those will provide further \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003edepth to your combat arsenal, be it a stronger dash, a weapon that can execute \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eenemies, the ability to heal and many more.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlayer choice is the ultimate power. Taking into account the vastly distinct \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eenemies’ patterns and unique skills granted upon each victory, you will be able to \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003edecide how to approach every challenge. It won’t be easy either way, but you can \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ealways go back and try something different.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGurei is a game about fighting strong enemies, but that’s not all. The Kami \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003einhabit a surreal castle located between the human and spirit worlds. After each \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003evictory, Rei comes closer to the realm of spirits, starting to encounter peculiar \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003echaracters from Japanese mythology. These creatures will add novelty and \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003estrangeness to your journey, providing commentary, unique animations, side \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eobjectives and obscure secrets.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eYou will get to know the different Kami quite well. When Rei defeats them, she \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eabsorbs their power and their personality. The defeated Kami will be carried \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003earound wherever Rei goes, and they’ll surely have stuff to talk about. Sometimes \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003etheir remarks will be useful information that builds the player’s understanding of \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ethe lore and the game mechanics, but sometimes they will be... not so helpful, to \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eput it briefly.
