Gamers will experience the traditional stories of Japan’s origin through the lens of three warring nations, with a massive expanse of options to develop their strategies from including a myriad of character classes and equipment within innovative and challenging stages.

A long time ago, there was a beautiful land made up of three nations: Fuji, Izumo, and Hyuga. This land was called Mizuho. The people of Mizuho disliked conflict, honored their ancestral spirits, and lived in harmony with nature. However, over time, they began cultivating crops, forging and using metal, fighting wars, destroying nature, and neglecting to honor their ancestral spirits.

In the meantime, various locations in Mizuho suffered from natural disasters like flooding, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions. In order to stop a destructive eruption, the Queen of Mizuho, Tsukuyomi, sacrificed her beloved daughter Sakuya to the mountain, confined her other daughter Kaguya within a bamboo seal in case of future disasters, and then disappeared. 13 years later, Princess Kaguya has grown into a beautiful woman and her childhood friend, Kintaro, saves her during a riot. She rises against her "fate to be a sacrifice," and in order to follow her own path, they both escape from Fuji and journey across Mizuho to discover the truth behind Tsukuyomi's decision.

Position your allies in relation to the enemies on the miniature, garden-like, 3D map. It features an intuitive battle system where you must consider height and distance as you maneuver your characters.

The battle order is determined by the speed of each character. When every character has taken their actions, it counts as one turn.

When you attack enemies or heal allies, your "impurity" increases. The higher your impurity is, the more likely you will be targeted by enemies. Manage the impurity of your characters to gain an advantage in battle.
