Touhou Fangame Guide

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Introduction
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Countless fanmade games have been released under the Touhou franchise thanks to its extremely high Doujin scene. Though not necessary, it’s ideal you play these games after you’re familiar with the franchise so you have at least a basic idea of the characters, story and lore, otherwise a lot of dialogue will go over your head. This is a work in progress as I'll complete more fangames in the future. These games are available in English unless otherwise stated. You can get these games off of moriyashrine.org or from a link listed on their information, if you have trouble finding them, they may be listed under their English translated name. The order Within the tiers the games are simply listed in the order of which I completed them first.

Also, an anon has kindly made a spreadsheet of nearly all Danmakufu Touhou fangames, please check it out here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1fM-goZFQCg3cZyCbHMipD7xWgHme2tOQCENflIoe6YI

Also, apparently there are dead links in this pastebin, if there are any, please let me know so I can correct them ASAP.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
High tier: These games are of exceptional quality and should be played by any fan of the series and especially those of the genre they pertain to.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Fantasy Maiden Wars: A Srpg like the Super Robot Wars games. Has impeccable dialogue, amazing music and simple yet rewarding gameplay. Has 3 sequels with only 2 of them being translated to english. This goes for the whole series: You can chose to have either Marisa's route or Reimu's route, each route has about a 4 differing missions per game with varying party members, though around the halfway point you will be able to have every party member you can regardless of what route you took. You can also import save data from this game into the sequel and import that to it's sequel and import that etc. About 10 hours long each route. Get it here: https://moriyashrine.org/files/file/180-gensou-shoujo-taisen-kou-fantasy-maiden-wars-scarlet/

Fantasy Maiden Wars 2: Sequel to the above game, features a great new story mode with the ability to carry over data from the first game. More characters, more music and more kickass battle scenes. Gameplay remains almost the exact same with no major changes. Has only partial translation. Even longer than the first game so it'll run you from 20-30 hours each route, Older versions of the game will lock just before the final stage, so download this version from a kind anon rather than the one from Moriya Shrine:

If there are problems with that version try this older but still soft-lock free one below.

Fantasy Maiden Wars 3: Obviously a sequel to the above game, features a new ui, major game play changes such as team formations and genuinely, a very emotional story. Has partial translation. Also somehow even longer then it's predecessor, running you about 25-30 hours. The same kind anon also dumped a fully patched, translated version of the game you can get here: https://mega.nz/#!Up1VVAQD!OOrUnUQf9rrIP_Y1rKF05tjcHVTzCPju3J8f3IkSrLg

Fantasy Maiden Wars Complete Box: A collection of the four Fantasy Maiden Wars games, features new UI, new music, new content and tons of quality of life features such as extra save slots. In Japanese and the current translations of 1-3 do not work with this version, get it here: https://mega.nz/#!MdIUiADZ!dWcYw1bC2zZZ2K5ubyBZchPsY9sEw2bRq_uKxd75szc

Youyou Kengeki Mousou: Also known as Eternal Swordplay Reverie. It’s a beautiful 3d Ys style Touhou game, in other words it’s fucking awesome. In the trademark of the series it’s complete with frantic fast paced gameplay with faithful remixes of the original touhou soundtrack, it is pretty short however at about 5 hours long or less. Get the game here: https://moriyashrine.org/files/file/129-youyou-kengeki-musou/

Adventures of Scarlet Curiosity: The best in it’s class and a personal favorite. Sequel to the aforementioned game, improves on it in every single way. Has new RPG features such as a levels, equipment and new skills to chose from as you level up. Has two playable characters, Remilia and Sakuya. though it is highly recommended you play as Sakuya for balance reasons. Will run you about 10 hours. An enhanced version of the game containing a Bullet Hell difficulty is out, you can get it here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/845880/Touhou_Scarlet_Curiosity/

Koumajou Densetsu (Translated as The Legend of Scarlet Devil Castle)  2 - Stranger's Requiem: The second game in the Touhouvania series. Outclasses the original in every single way. Features a higher resolution, abilities, partner select, top notch voice acting and more. Keep in mind it contains some EXTREMELY disrespectful scenes of the cast unlocked after completion of the game so play those at your own risk. Will run you about 7 hours long. Get it here: https://moriyashrine.org/files/file/531-koumajou-densetsu-i-ii-premium-pack/

Shoot, Shoot Nitori!: A vertical shoot em up with Nitori as the sole playable character, features beautiful sprite work, catchy music, awesome level design and a very fun mechanic as part of the core gameplay. You collect various weapons dropped from enemies and attach it (quite literally) to your ever growing arsenal of fucking shit up which can get absolutely hectic. Your clear run will run you about 30 minutes, so the overall playtime depends on how many attempts you give it before completion. In Japanese with bits of english but you should have zero problem figuring out what to do. Get the game here: https://moriyashrine.org/files/file/260-shoot-shoot-nitori/

Shooter, Shoot Nitori The Golden: Sequel to the first game, features 20 playable characters including Sakuya, Reisen, Marisa, Youmu, a store to buy items pre-mission, has more items, more bosses and generally more of everything you would want from the first game. As the first one, it’s in Japanese but same same near absent story with no dialogue so there’s nothing you’re missing out. Will run you about 30 minutes, as you can restart from the mission start as many times much as you want, though it has no save feature so be wary before you close the game. Play in fullscreen to minimize crashing. Get the game here: https://moriyashrine.org/files/file/364-shuushuu-nito-kin-shoot-shoot-nitori-the-golden/

Tempest of Heaven and Earth ~ Suppression by Celestial. Lullaby for Gaia: A hack n slash side scrolling platformer featuring Tenshi as the main character of this game. It features a top notch soundtrack, tight and intense game play with beautiful artwork and graphics. Will run you about 5-7 hours depending on how good you are. It's in Japanese only and if you're game hasn't been fully patched yet be sure to download it from the official website located here at the bottom of the webpage: http://shakna.jp/Tempest/

TOUHOU HOUKYOUTABI: Translated as Touhou Treasure Hunt. Play as either Sakuya or Reisen in this Links Awakening clone of a fangame. It features kickass music, actually good graphics, decent animation, addictive gameplay with good pacing and a very suitable plot for a game made in 2009. It's in Japanese only, so if you were to play this game it can get pretty confusing as to where to go, with no walk through found anywhere on the Internet, feel free to ask me what to do in the off chance you'll play the game and get stuck. Will run you about 7-10 hours. You can get the game here: http://doujingravity-remaster.blogspot.ca/2014/02/touhou-houkyoutabi.html. Be sure to patch the game to it's latest version as found here: http://honya2.sakura.ne.jp/yuuyuutei/html/thhkj.htm

Mystical Chain: A hype as fuck, Adrenalin inducing team based 2d arena fighter with bosses every 5 stages where you play as Marisa, Patchouli and Alice in pairs of two. Features a nostalgic art style, amazing music and production values with addictive game play to compliment it. In order to get the true ending you will need to have obtained 40 CP points, you can obtain CP points easily by whacking enemies and swapping partners when your respective combos have ended. A full run will take about an hour, however you can start from any level once you completed the game, even on a bad ending, you can even skip the entire first stage and all it's levels and you'll still have an excess CP if you do it right. Get it here: https://moriyashrine.org/files/file/117-mystical-chain/

Ephemeral Unnatural Balance: An unfinished danmaku fangame featuring Rin Satakuski and Kasen from WaHH. It shows a lot of potential with top notch music, cute art and designs and very entertaining danmaku, only stages up to 3 are playable however. Should take you about 15 minutes to complete, even a novice can "1cc" this game on their first try. The full game is out on steam now (though I've yet to play it), get it here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/834580/__Ephemeral_Unnatural_Balance/

Dissapearing of Gensokyo: This is also a personal favorite of mine. A action RPG/Hack'n slash/Bullethell hybrid, or as the dev's call it a "Danmaku-Shooting-ARPG" game. Features a very amusing dialogue that may be unintentional from it's translation choices, great music, though it's unsure if it has the rights to use Yuuhei Sattelites songs for bosses or not, Varied gameplay with a wide mix of different characters featuring some of the most popular Touhous to play from with upgrades and passive abiliites to keep things fresh. "Intresting" design choices to say the least (think hispanic DBZ videos but with Touhou), very hard but fair difficulty, your actual Touhou game skills will be tested in this game, very detailed lore and character notes for newcomers and as a bonus highly expensive trading cards that will make the game's DLC pay for itself. Sadly this game ends way too soon, running you about 30 hours long. Purchase it on Steam because no decent human being would ever let you pirate this one. Get the game here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/776490/__The_Disappearing_of_Gensokyo/

Impossible Spell Card Reverse/Danmaku Amonojaku Reverse: It's ISC but instead you're the one attacking Seija as Kagerou, hence the name. It's pretty damn good, not really much to say. It's assumed that the game encourages a no-item run since Kagerou's most of Kagerou's skills actually do the same thing, and I do not think you can upgrade your skills either. Unknown how long it is due to me being stuck on stage 7. Download it here: http://www1.axfc.net/u/3267768.zip

Touhou Shoujo Tale of Beautiful Memories - Super Touhou RPG: From making deformed tentacle hentai 2hu VNs to this is quite the achievement. Basically it's Super Mario RPG but with Touhou and anatomically disproportional artwork. Gameplay is more or less the same from the source game, fluid, satisfying combat that gets more deep and complex as you progress through the game, while still remaining simple to use. In Japanese only but you should have no problem figuring out what to do and how to play, especially if your familiar with the original game. Get it here:
https://mega.nz/#F!UjgXERbB!g0kRIa3CnOgp0-DV0GozAw The game is extremely long, will run you anywhere from 30-100 hours. Now has an english version! Get it here: https://www.dlsite.com/eng/work/=/product_id/RE258506.html

(Have not played) Touhou Puppet Dance Performance + Shard of Dreams expansion: Supposedly Pokemon but better and with Touhou, this is here because an anon has kindly dumped a working fixed version that is pre-patched and includes the expansion pack and a randomizer, remember to run your game in Japanese Locale or it will not work. This is now finally translated, the link below provides instructions and a save editor for cheating purposes.
https://mega.nz/#!Zh9HFIgA!B_Z5O9vC0SLzI5OshlXPXHeRjEAu3pYsLRwgXj9Sagk

https://mega.nz/#!L9kRySII!_HtFzAnDWJkglqYSjkbL5ZdN4lc3WW_Fob-yaDRwWV0 - This is the recent translation to the expansion pack which apparently has most of the story scenes translated, "Just replace the /dat/gn_dat5 .arc file with that folder after you extract it".

Touhou Gensou Wanderer RELOADED: A very in depth rougelike game with VN-like story telling. Features amazing music, addictive gameplay, funny dialogue, beautiful artwork and great voice acting. Keep in mind that this is a roguelike, so it's gonna be pretty hard, as in when you die, you go all the way back to the beginning of floor 1, so if you were on floor 39 but you died it's all the way back for you. You lose all your levels and money when you die but you get to keep your items and equipment to keep things going. Once you get into the game play mechanics of the game such as Fusion and the like, it's extremely hard to put down. This game features a brand new story and includes all of the original Gensou Wanderer story AND it's DLC on top of that, so you get 4 games in one: The Gensou Wanderer Reloaded story, the Gensou Wanderer story, Mobotobe no Futo and the 7 trials story and I believe the Aya/Momiji platformer. Supposedly over 100+ hours long but I'm still playing it. Get it here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/931500/Touhou_Genso_Wanderer_Reloaded__TOD_RELOADED__TOD_RELOADED/

Touhou Luna Nights: It's Symphony of The Night but with it's own things that make it really unique and stands out. Features an amazing soundtrack, beautiful sprite graphics, adrenaline pumping boss fights, Sakuya as the main character and most importantly impeccable gameplay. A game fitting for the Perfect and Elegant Maid. It's single flaw is how short it is, the game will run you about 5-7 hours depending on how good you are at it. An update that added a extra stage + boss and boss rush along with screenshots and achivements is finally out, Available on steam here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/851100/Touhou_Luna_Nights/

Touhou Hollow Song of Birds: This is probably one of the best Danmaku (Danmakufu) fangames you can play, it easily holds up compared to ZUN's mainline games as a matter of fact. Music is great, danmaku and spell cards are absolutely beautiful to look at and very fun to play against and the boss designs are actually pretty good and unique and stand out compared to other fangame OC designs. Has Sakuya, Marisa and Reimu as playable characters with playable unlockables such as Kaguya in the mix. The game however is quite long for a danmaku fangame, will take about 45 minutes to complete. Get an english patched version of the game here: https://moriyashrine.org/files/file/448-touhou-hollow-song-of-birds/

Han Tamashii Takeshi Geichou: A simple but fun game where you play as Youmu who has to get stronger to beat Ran's ultimate fox form. Use your mouse to swing your sword as you fight various characters and upgrade Youmu with your hard earned points to get stronger for the final battle. Not translated. The game also crashes on the final battle, but I'm not sure if that is exclusive to me or not. Get it here: https://moriyashrine.org/files/file/116-han-tamashii-takeshi-geichou/

Touhou Fantastical Dance - Friendship, Betrayal, Victory : A local multiplayer party and RPG hybrid game based off the Dokapon Kingdom series. Features a large cast to play from, different classes/stats to specalize in and up to 4 player co-op which can be done on the same controller. The goal of the game is to have the most money by the end of the game. Liberate towns from demons, customize and strengthen your characters, fight other players and so much more to get to the top. Will run you about 2-3 hours. In Japanese only. Get the game here: https://mega.nz/#!ba5AgA5L!9LgnbgaYibAT16vHIumJIz4DXyrEArQGd43Ig4FL4nk

Cirno gets Clever: A horizontal shoot em up featuring Cirno as the main character and the use of IQ points to upgrade her abilities such as focus power, bomb power, number of lives and more. Go through 5 stages fighting various bosses from the game such as Byakuren and Okuu and show everyone that you're not only the strongest, but also the smartest. A single playthrough will take about 30 minutes. In Japanese but you should have no problem figuring out what to do. Get the game here: https://mega.nz/#F!NMowya4S!izCzVYaDfTlVBxXodHQaZA

Touhou 3D Dungeon: A short zelda-esque third person adventure game featuring the ability to play as both Reimu and Marisa, cute N64 tier graphics and a relaxing OST that you have probably heard from other games. Go through various dungeons and try to solve puzzles with newly acquired power ups while combating enemies you encounter. In Japanese but there should be no problem figuring out what to do. Will run you about 1-2 hours. Get the game here: https://mega.nz/#!4QQlyACI!cB4llDIZLa2g2jVyAyKivNLNlZuaZsPzU3AE7ZuRR-A

3rd Eye (Have not played): A puzzle horror game featuring Koishi as the main character where you use your third eye to reveal secrets, sadly that's about all I can say about it. The game takes up a ridiculous amount of ram and CPU so it's a pain in the ass to play if you have 4gb of RAM or less, I have no idea why it's like this since the demo ran just fine. However from what I played of the demo it was very polished and well done, so I presume the full game is the same way. In Japanese only and that might be a problem trying to finish the game. Download at your own risk here (Seriously, the fact that it uses so much ram and CPU is quite sketchy): https://mega.nz/#!VQJFWY6J!pzuIxUeXbh7J4jscct0NvwZ6gsiXGGEaBip7Cp0HJ0o
The game is out on Steam in english through https://store.steampowered.com/app/1131900/3rd_eye, I assume the CPU issues has been fixed.

Patchouli: A game based heavily off of the Suguri games where you play as Patche herself. Features comfy levels and hard to master mechanics.  Use a variety of weapon combinations across several levels and bosses from EoSD. The game is suprisngly fun but difficult, in Japanese only but it shouldn't hinder your ability to play too much, will run you 5-10 hours or more depending on the difficulty you're playing at. It also has a seperate, online game mode, however it seemed to be extraordinary laggy when anons managed to get a match going. Get the game and it's online counterpart here: http://web.archive.org/web/20181105052202/http://www.geocities.jp/akatuki_twilight/soft/soft.html

Shanghai.exe (Have not played, description mostly by anon): A MegaMan battle network clone that was shut down by Capcom (I think) when it was 99% finished, but an anon is working on finishing the final part, arguably better than the original games, gameplay is broken down and explained pretty much completely in the tutorial, lots of chips, lots of bosses, that's really all there is to it. Will run you about 10 hours for basic plot, but if you fight all the V3's and do the sidequests and chip farm it can easily reach 30+. In english. Get the game here: https://mega.nz/#!Q8wlyYob!QVfDM2bMAIVrWHknhgPEwxnF0quaAFpHqjmXh9EYpg4

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mid tier: These games are still well worth your time but they come with flaws that hold them back from being high tier.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Touhou Rhythm Carnival: A simple flash-like Rhythm game in the format of the Rhythm Heaven series. Game is really short at under 4 hours long. In Japanese only but you should understand how to play as you only need to press one or two buttons to the beat. Get it here: https://moriyashrine.org/files/file/484-touhou-rhythm-carnival-scarlet/

Koumajou Densetsu (translated as The Legend of Scarlet Devil Castle) - Scarlet Symphony: A Castlevania Touhou game. Has iconic artwork, very fitting music, and for the most part solid gameplay, however it’s has some frustrating technical limitations that hold it back from being high tier such as limited keyboard support, very small resolution and escape closing the game along with crashing. The sequel is better in every way, so play this one first otherwise you’ll feel like you’re playing mediocrity in comparison. About 7 hours long. Get it here: https://moriyashrine.org/files/file/531-koumajou-densetsu-i-ii-premium-pack/

Maihana Ao Makyou - Uniting Barrage Action: A sequel to EoSD, feature amazing production values with gorgeous 3d graphics and mini scenes, good voice acting, challenging difficulty and added gameplay mechanics such as barrier clashing, (think of Fall power from HSiFS but used also as a weapon on bosses), power extortion (You use 50 points of your power to remove bullets in a short area around you, which will add to your barrier meter, these are separate from your bombs) and passive item abilities. Couple that with some kickass music remixes of the original scores and you’ve got yourself a quality game. Huge caveat however, is that  you will have to capture all spell cards in one run to proceed to Stage 6. Will run you god knows how long to capture those spell cards for the true ending. To capture a spell card you have to not lose a life AND you can't use a bomb during the attack, so good luck, there's 10 of them not including the last stage. For that it's going in to mid tier, otherwise it would be a high tier game. In Japanese with little English bits here and there. The game is now available on PS4 and Switch in english with extra content. Get the PC version here: https://moriyashrine.org/files/file/173-maihana-ao-makyou-uniting-barrage-action/

The Last Corner: The first game in a trilogy of a fan made danmaku series. Play as Sakuya, Reimu or Marisa. Features a bad story based very, very, VERY poorly on Christianity, a mediocre soundtrack baring an song or two and pretty terrible character designs. Why is this recommended then? Because the actual gameplay is pretty good, the danmaku is for the most part unique, interesting and fun to play out and the level design isn't have bad either. As with most danmaku games it'll run you about 30 minutes but however many attempts to 1cc it will depend on your skill. In Japanese but it has an English patch, not that it matters much anyway but here you go: https://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php?topic=13333.0

Riverbed Soul Savior: The third game in a triolgy of a fan made danmaku series. Play as Reimu, Marisa or Futo with a friend communicating with you SA style. Features a somehow even more confusing story than the first game, a worse soundtrack and mediocre character designs. However this is  recommended for the same reason the first game is, because the thing that matters the most, the gameplay and danmaku are pretty solid and the best out of the three games. As always it'll run you about 30 minutes but it actually shouldn't take many attempts to 1cc this one, as someone who 1cc'd all the mainline Touhou games on normal, it took me a grand total of 1 try to 1cc this game on Normal. In Japanese but you can grab the English patch here: https://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php?topic=17407.0

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Low tier: These games are often pretty flawed but fun can be derived from them if you ignore their faults.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Aya Shinemaru - Touhou Attorney: A visual novel game in the same format as the Ace Attorney series, though the story, cases and dialogue are disappointingly weak. Playing this is recommended only if you’re a fan of both series and don’t mind a very light hearted adventure that won’t take itself seriously. About 10 hours long on a blind run. Get it here https://moriyashrine.org/files/file/179-shin-gyakuten-touhou-aya-shameimaru-ace-attorney/

Mystical Power Plant: The second game in the series and sequel to The Last Corner. Has better art and production value, however it somehow has worse Danmaku than the first game, especially at the end, the music is quite plain as always. A run will take you about 30 minutes but how long to 1cc that will obviously depend on your skill. Has a  full English translation you can get here: https://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php?topic=15589.0. PRESUMABLY BELONGING TO YUKARI.

DESTREACTION: A 3.6 Minute-long minigame where you play as Flan in a decent looking 3d game wrecking as much shit inside the SDM as possible. Worth playing around a bit for a few times, get it here: https://drive.google.com/uc?id=0ByN6SVwZ1pxJM082eGhSUnVtVWs&export=download

Hakurei Hack and Slash: A 3-5 minute long hack and slash game featuring inaccurate character dialogue and lore with Reimu as a playable character and pretty cool game play mechanics. Worth a play through, Get it here https://bedstuck.itch.io/hakurei

Touhou Star Fox: A lazy asset flip game that tries to emulate the gameplay of Starfox. Play as Reimu and fight tons and tons of the same looking 3d stock asset dragons. Will run you about 15-20 minutes. The only reason this isn't in the shit tier is because it's amusing enough in a "So bad it's good" kind of way to keep you entertained for at least one run through. In japanese but it shouldn't be a problem. Get the game here: https://mega.nz/#!FQR1mC4R!xIBvlVBHNIIMUEz9uIhE3rD6gKdUYIWJEroFq5vjjuM

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mod tier: These games are not fangames perse but rather modifications of existing game with Touhou added in.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tou-Gi-Oh (Needs a better name): Made by an anonymous user, it's Yu-Gi-Oh, but it's done completely with Touhou themed cards, work with an assortment of 100+ cards and build your own deck, challenge users in threads and show them that thier waifu is indeed a shit. You need Evolve to play, check the 2HUREADME.txt in the folder for more info. The game is now dead with no one playing it, but you may still download it here:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Shit Tier: These games are just plain bad for several reasons, do not waste your time playing them
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
DyanMarisa 3D: A Earth Defense Force game made by none other than Twilight Frontier featuring Marisa. sadly the game suffers greatly from extreme repetition, lacking in ANY variety to keep things fresh, bad weapons and sluggish movement/controls. But hey, you can play it in stereoscopic 3D! In english. Get the game here: https://www.mediafire.com/?0viqt6msimiio

MegaMari: A Megaman clone game made by Twilight Frontier also featuring Marisa. The game suffers from extremely stiff and unresponsive controls that make the platforming in the game an absolute nightmare to the point of it being near unplayable. However you might have better luck with this game, get it here: https://moriyashrine.org/files/file/575-megamari-marisa-no-yabou/

Highly Responsive to Pancakes: A free remake of the first PC-98 game that uses assess from other games including the art and music, there's just absolutely no reason to play this over the original, it literally does nothing to improve over the original.

Suika to Hyakki Hei: A fucked up blend of Pikmin/Overlord. Play as Suika and command Mini-Suikas to do your bidding in order to overcome obstacles and enemies. Sounds good on paper but it get's really boring after 10 minutes as the entire game feels like a tech-demo that was still in the alpha stages but they decided to make a full game out of it. The music is good though. Get the game here: http://doujingravity-remaster.blogspot.com/2014/07/suika-to-hyakki-hei.html

Black and White Difference: What A Beautiful Sky: A Touhou visual novel based off another visual novel series in a steampunk setting. Features Aya(?) as the main character, the entire game moves at a snails pace with nothing interesting ever happening out of it save for some moments where my machine translator would fuck up and make some funny text come up. The music is good though.

Seija Reverse: A terrible game featuring Seija and the Inchling with horrible and confusing graphics, DREADFUL music and boring, stale gameplay. Not even worth a download, but here you go if you're curious: https://mega.nz/#F!ddxyRC6T!I5C0sAxRTXrM_K-5EpBy9A

Nazringrad: A 3d shooting game featuring nazrin as the main character, has potential but is stricken with horrible "level" design and stale, repetitive gameplay, get the game here: https://mega.nz/#F!tAgQ3AYB!hcQyg4q78QZkaFl9DOo7jg
