Kinki Spiritual Affairs Bureau

A Japanese-style horror TPS game where you can fight back against the spirits

This game is not a classic Japanese horror game where you can't fight back against the spirits. In Kinki Spiritual Affairs Bureau, you're just as much of a threat as the spirits themselves!

The story takes place in Japan, where exorcisms are carried out by government agents. The protagonist is Mizuki Shiraishi, who is an exorcist from the Kinki Spiritual Affairs Bureau. Mizuki visits Saiga Village in Nara to investigate a mystery in which all trances of the village have been wiped off the internet. Upon her arrival, she discovers all villagers have gone missing and the village is infested with a disproportionate number of unlawful spirits.
Electricity, communications, and the internet in the village have been all cut-off, and Shiraishi also finds out that someone is pulling the strings behind the incident.

Shiraishi pursues the mystery with radio assistance from her boss Kohinata and her junior co-worker Maruoka.
