Description
Gurei is an unforgiving samurai action game. Drawing from classic Japanese
samurai cinema, Gurei pairs hand-drawn art and fluid animation with a punishing,
choice-driven combat system. Players take the role of Rei, a human spirit bound to
hunt the Kami — ancient entities of nature drawn from Japanese mythology — in
any order they choose, with every victory unlocking a new ability and pulling Rei
deeper into the fracture between the human and spirit realms. Rei, the main
character, is a human spirit bound with the challenging duty of defeating mystical
entities of nature, the Kami, to obtain their power. The game won’t hold the
player’s hand, leaving it up to them to discover and conquer this fantastic handdrawn world that is gray, both metaphorically and literally.
