Shishiodoshi - Demo ver.

The darkness is growing inside you, but you won't let it win.

You've arrived in Japan with the help of Peter Smith, the Silver Prince of the mythic people, and meet with Megumi, the enigmatic mythic familiar of the Bamboo Witch.

Now the trial of the 'Bamboo Path' awaits you, can you reach your destination without deviation...or will you be tempted to stray away? Fortune favours the bold, but keep your wits about you...or you may lose more than you bargained for.

Play as The Crooked Man's apprentice as you unravel the mysteries surrounding your mentor and encounter a world of Japanese culture, magic and mythics.
