Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess offers a unique blend of action and tower defense to create an experience unlike any other that you'll play in 2024.

Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess MSRP $50.00 Score Details “Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess is unlike anything else you'll play in 2024, and that's why it's one of the year's best games.” Pros Cons I knew Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess was special when I hit the oddball strategy game’s third level, Yuan Cavern.

Kunitsu-Gami constantly encourages players to stay engaged, whether that be because they have to plan out the maiden’s path, actively fight enemies during the night, or craft their own interpretation of its mostly dialogue-free narrative. While some parts of the journey can get repetitive, Kunitsu-Gami rewards those who pay attention, learn its deep systems, and adapt to whatever wacky situation it throws at them. There’s nothing else quite like it.

While this can be tough, Kunitsu-Gami also seems optimistic that there’s something worth saving on the other side of it all. Of course, that’s just one interpretation of the adventure, as players can interpret its narrative in quite a few different ways. This narrative approach, along with the fantastical aesthetics and an insightful trickle of collectible lore, turns Kunitsu-Gami into a modern fairy tale that players can relay to one another like folklore.

Soh can actively fight enemies with their sword in combat, which is most similar to Capcom’s underrated and long-dormant Onimusha series. Soh is quite the action hero on their own, thanks to a wealth of flashy combos and special abilities players have access to. Still, Soh needs help from villagers. They can be freed from poison cocoons during the day and assigned roles during a battle.

Back to base building While I enjoyed the variance of every level in Kunitsu-Gami early on, I worried that the game wouldn’t offer enough in terms of long-term progression. Thankfully, that wasn’t the case. Around the halfway point of the game, it introduces systems that let me enhance the abilities of Soh and villagers by spending a currency called Musubi. I had to complete challenges, find hidden chests with a Thief villager, and build bases around the mountain to collect it.
