A straightforward yet deep puzzle game where you throw bombs to defeat enemies. How to Play: 1. Move the character (Cirno) to decide "where to throw from." 2. Choose "which bomb to throw." 3. Throw the bomb to defeat the enemies. Each bomb has unique characteristics, such as "continuing until it hits something," "exploding three squares ahead," or "knocking enemies back without dealing damage." Use the specific traits of each bomb effectively to help Cirno defeat the fairies (and others). The game includes over 400 stages. *This app supports English and Japanese. *This game is a fan-made creation based on the Touhou Project.
