Game Description

Raidou Kuzunoha works as a private eye. And while he may look like your average, sharp-dressed, sharp-eyed gumshoe, he's anything but. Kuzunoha has the power to capture demons, then use them to do his bidding. You'll control Kuzunoha - and his demonic minions - through episode-based play filled with action and mystery in 1920s Japan. Survive real-time combat sequences with combo attacks, guns, swords, and your demon soldiers. Use your powers to help solve puzzles and master the secrets of a Soulless Army. We're willing to bet that solving mysteries is a lot easier when you've got a horde of demons at your disposal...
