Game Description:
Touhou Reiiden - Highly Responsive to Prayers (東方靈異伝 ~ The Highly Responsive to Prayers) is a Action video game published by Amusement Makers and developed by ZUN Soft released on August 15th, 1997 for the PC-98.
The first game in the Touhou series, known for its unusual mechanics and high difficulty.
Unlike the later PC‑98 installments, this game is not a traditional shoot-'em-up. Instead, you control Reimu while bouncing a Yin‑Yang Orb to break targets, in a style reminiscent of Arkanoid.
The orb can hit the ground without any penalty, but if it strikes Reimu while she isn’t attacking, she takes damage.
The game also features boss battles with early forms of the bullet‑hell patterns that would define the series in later installments.
