About the game

An online battle game where you place girls from Gensokyo like in a game of Go! However, since the goal is to compete based on how well they get along, you can only win when the girls next to each other are friends. Enjoy the strategies created by their abilities and relationships!

Original Steam description

This is an Two-player online competitive game where players place on the board the girls of Gensokyo and vie for supremacy in their precious bonds (friendship).

Specifically, like in “Five in a Row,” you place character cards as stones in straight lines to increase your overall precious bonds (the points needed to win).

However, since the goal is to compete for the friendship, the characters placed next to each other must be friends.

Abilities

Each character has unique abilities, such as “placing multiple stones in one move” or “destroying the opponent's stones,” among others.

In particular, the “Spell Card,” which can be used once per match, is extremely powerful, and its usage can significantly influence the outcome of the game.

Movement and Pushing

Placed stones can be moved later or used to push other stones, depending on each character’s movement points.

This allows for more flexible gameplay.

Deck

Like many TCGs (Trading Card Games), you can freely select cards from your collection

to build your deck.

To achieve overall precious bonds, it's essential that adjacent cards work well together,

so deck construction requires more conscious synergy than other TCGs.

Game Modes

In addition to Ranked Matches and Free Matches,

we plan to hold limited-time “Event Matches” with modified rules, such as

“more Spell Cards available” and “points are awarded even if players are friends of friends.”

You might find some unexpected cards proving useful...

Puzzle Mode

Similar to shogi problems, there is a puzzle mode where you score points or

prevent the enemy from scoring points within a set board configuration and number of turns.

There are over 20 different stages.

☆This game is a fan-made game based on the Touhou Project.
