Lastly, here’s an overview of the game, via Gematsu:
You are an exorcist, and your partner and (hopelessly inseparable) childhood friend Natsume Kamishiro is a fox spirit. Together, you bear the important duty of exterminating yokai in order to maintain peace in the city.
However…
Today, Natsume is on so-called “patrol” again, and takes you out into the city with her. She takes you to the shopping district, amusement park, public park, pool, card shop… all while completely disregarding yokai extermination!
A high-spec muscle-brain who is occasionally enchanting… even as you’re led by the carefree Natsume, can you still fulfill your duty to exterminate yokai?
