This is a role-playing game in which players assume the role of a demon slayer caught in a war between gods and demons in a post-apocalyptic Tokyo. As players explore urban landscapes, they interact with characters and engage in turn-based combat against human enemies and demon-like creatures. Players use a variety of weapon attacks and magic spells from a menu screen to kill enemies. Damage is indicated by impact sounds, colorful light effects, and large explosions. Blood effects are frequently depicted: blood stains on characters' bodies/clothing; large blood stains underneath corpses or in pools on the floor. During the course of the game, some female demons are depicted with bare breasts (no nipples) and exposed buttocks; other demons have phallic-shaped heads and/or torsos. Descriptions of demons sometimes include sexual references: “They visit sleeping men and have sexual intercourse with them.” The words “sh*t” and “a*shole” appear in the dialogue.
