comment
In the distant future, demons have taken over the earth, and only a few people possessing great powers and martial arts skills were able to survive. The young sword-master Lao comes back from his long exile/training in order to stop Rei, his former friend, and end the demonic influence in the world.Bujingai (subtitled Swordmaster in Europe and The Forsaken City in the U.S.) is a 2003 Hack and Slash game for the PlayStation 2 by Taito and Red Entertainment, based on Wuxia and set mostly in a post-apocalyptic world occupied by demons. Its main character, Lao, is based on, is voiced by and uses motion capture of GACKT, who also helped write the storyline.An interesting side note: This is one of the games that ZUN worked on during his nebulous 'day job' as a programmer.

Boring, but Practical
 Bujingai (Video Game) / int_39b8d3d6
comment
Boring, but Practical: Your first spell, Gouenken, is a basic fireball projectile that costs little energy to use and can take out most common enemies in two hits and the weakest in one. It's also the best way to beat Malron of Venom, the giant spider boss who constantly summons smaller spiders to attack for magic energy and has a spin attack that makes engaging it in close combat suicide.

Final-Exam Boss: Both of the last two bosses require you to use basically every skill you've acquired. There's also a sort of final exam stage in the form of the penultimate level (see Platform Hell below), a series of platforms in the demon-dimension with a cloud motif.

Our Monsters Are Weird: The most common demons resemble some sort of flesh puppets with swords and a paper charm on their face. Many of the stronger demons look even stranger. The default puppet-ish demons might base their appearance on Jiang Shi/Kyonshi, creatures from Chinese Mythology that are usually visualized wearing similar styles of clothing and with paper charms over their faces.
