DESCRIPTION

Step into the sandals of a wandering monk on a sacred mission: to capture mischievous yokai by trapping them within mystical loops of holy talismans. In this arcade-inspired action game, you'll draw circles around your enemies—literally—to purify them and restore balance to the spirit world.

Master the ancient art of looping and dodging! Every encounter is a dance of precision and timing.

But beware: while extending your talisman, the monk moves slower—leaving you vulnerable to the spirits' attacks. Timing is everything.

Can you complete the eternal cycle... or will you be caught in the loop?
