### 3/5 — It was fun, but...

*2026-06-10, version 1.53.0*

While I have enjoyed playing this game for a few years, the experience was ruined by constant connection loss, which often comes out of nowhere. In addition, the main story seemed to be on the back burner for so long that I ended up losing interest.

### 3/5 — A very good game but…

*2026-04-28, version 1.51.0*

I’ve already ran out of room for new characters. I need y’all to remove the limit so I can continue grinding for new characters. Please and thank you!

### 4/5 — Game could have Potential

*2026-03-19, version 1.50.0*

Issue is just getting certain items like the epic paper dolls you can only get 1 if you have 100 event currency if there is an event going on that has it either way another way to get it is by quest if one exists or just buy the micro transactions 
I’m mainly here for the story and art so my rating is just for that

### 4/5 — Weird glitch

*2025-12-03, version 1.46.0*

Hey so I entered the game and tried to do the tower mode but it wouldn't let me. When I check the shop it said I have -89 god crystals. Please fix this bug asap

### 2/5 — time to say goodbye

*2025-08-30, version 1.43.0*

i’ve played on different accounts- for years. and i love touhou and loved this game but other games have better gacha results…its just not worth it anymore

### 3/5 — It's uh… A game, alright. A cash-grabby game, I guess. Also the game itself is very boring lol

*2025-08-01, version 1.42.0*

i'll be honest, i haven't touched this game in like… how long? 2 years or so but i do remember how the game operates

it is very RNG based, progressing in the game may or may not depend on the units you get from gacha.
 i feel like they're going way a little overboard with the new touhou unit designs, they used to be cool but as time progresses some of the newly released touhou characters and their designs… hm, how should i say this—i kinda feel like some original touhou characters lose their charm? like the red cirno thing idk what's it called and i genuinely don't care what it's called lol

getting seal crystals aren't necessarily hard but over time as the game lacks content because of the scarlet tower and continuous character releases, the grinding gets overwhelmingly boring and repetitive. 

God crystals are incredibly hard to get unless you get those 'special occurrences' in TLW since most of them can only be bought through MONEY. 

 the actual story content itself is slow to release sometimes because for 'SOME REASON' they primarily focus on character releases. i have a good feeling why they mostly focus on character releases though and you might too! 

now for paper dolls.
paper dolls.
oh my god. 
i feel like i have to wait a thousand years just to get a specific paper doll, it's like waiting for scythe (from phighting) to get another skin

and the entire game is just a cash grab! that's all
i cannot believe i had played this game for almost three whole years before actually quitting, there is almost nothing fun in this game, even though i love touhou

### 5/5 — IDK:)

*2025-07-26, version 1.42.0*

### 1/5 — It doesn’t have feet

*2026-08-19, version 1.55.0*

I wanna see feet also give me 6000 seal crystals and all characters level 100 free🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬😡😡😡😡😡🥵🥵🥵🥵

### 1/5 — devs ran out of ideas

*2026-08-12, version 1.54.0*

you can’t tell me they didn’t plagiarize Osana Reimu and KKHTA for a lot of the alternates

### 1/5 — Please more Nue alts >:(

*2026-06-10, version 1.53.0*

Where is the justice for Nue man all I see is the pathetic koishi 🫩

### 1/5 — Lost account

*2026-06-09*

I would like to play it again with all my Touhou characters I no longer know my account unless the developers have deleted it

### 1/5 — This game sucks

*2026-06-07, version 1.52.0*

Okay here’s why. First off all the odds in the gacha are so buns you could pull 20 times and not get the character. Secondly the amount of fan service is insane  like A13 Seiga she did not have those in the gain touhou 13. It’s hard to grind in this game and limit breaking characters it’s hard to get papers doll like epic, divine, and jumbo. And the last thing the age rating like 4+ age is terrible with the amount of reveling outfits it’s just insane. Do better ZUN Im baffled.

### 1/5 — And people actually play this ?!

*2026-03-26, version 1.50.0*

I'm honestly floored that people are still willing to play a game that’s just another generic gacha clone. The player base is either full of creeps or clueless newbies who don't know any better. It's just a mountain of fanservice and gross stuff. I’d want to praise some of the art since it’s actually decent, but that just makes the whole situation even worse...

### 1/5 — This game is not worth it, honestly.

*2026-03-05, version 1.49.1*

The game is honestly boring, repetitive, grindy, and just filled with a lot of ruined designs of Touhou characters, such as oversexualizing them and turning them minuscules. The battle music plays 99.99% of the time for normal battles and they can't think of other original battle music aside from Greenwich Debris many times. Please remove it off your phones and get better games. This game is really a shell of what it once was, and literally Lost what it once was.

### 1/5 — Another bad gacha game

*2026-02-16, version 1.48.0*

Does the sin of every bad gacha game where you either need to develop hardcore autism, wait literal years or shell out hundreds of dollars for a single specific character to beat ONE section of the story and be prepared to do that multiple times. I guess it’s nice that literally NONE of the stories in this game are canon anyway because the developers actively don’t want people to experience the fan fiction they wrote.

### 1/5 — State of the Game

*2025-09-27, version 1.44.0*

My god I was discombobulated by the things that I saw: 7 character banners and a yukkuri banner?!?! EA when did you take over the development from Good Smiles? Oh wait, they were always this greedy. Never mind. But holy moly it caused me more physical and psychological damage than the time I re-installed Genshin Impact.

### 1/5 — PLEASE ALLOW US TO SKIP TUTORIALS

*2025-07-16, version 1.41.2*

I mean, I Understand, it's Nice to Learn how to play, but, what if Somebody Previously Lost their Progress, or just doesn't need a Tutorial? 

I've Previously Lost my Progress, because a Relative, thinking they're doing me a Favor, DELETED ALL OF my games, and Replaced them with TikTok, CNN, and even ESPN.

### 5/5 — Create your own avatar?

*2026-05-12, version 1.52.0*

This game is so good! But do you think that the players could make their own avatar? I know it’s a lot to ask but it would be very cool! Please and thank you, ps you guys are awesome!

### 5/5 — (2026) Touhou Gambling game

*2026-04-23, version 1.51.0*

Only Touhou game that is popular, But with out the bullet hell system it seems different to the Touhou community. The songs are better remixes of Zuns Version. It Really has a lot of detail into the battle. And incase I forgot this was a Touhou remix.
