About
For many years, a renowned general ruled the eastern plains. Then, one day, he changed completely.
He placed an eerie army under his command and, calling it a “hunt for living spirits,” forcibly summoned women of all ranks to his castle. Not a single one was returned alive.
Soon, his demonic grasp extended to neighboring kingdoms, and Princess Futsuhime of the Western Lands also fell into his clutches.
Within the castle, Princess Futsuhime learned of his dreadful plot. The general schemed to gather the souls of young women to create the ultimate creature.
This creature grew steadily by consuming human souls. Once Princess Futsuhime was absorbed as its final vessel, it would become complete and consume all the world within mere days.
The ritual to make the princess its vessel was set for tomorrow's sunrise. Only one day and night remained.
Placing her last hope in it, the princess hurled the family treasure, the “Flying Azure Stone,” beyond the castle's stone prison barrier.
The “Flying Azure Stone” soared through the heavens and fell to five heroes. Guided by its azure light, the curtain now rises on this tale.

このゲームはね 多くの難易度が選択できるにも関わらず、一番下の難易度選択モンキーでもノーマルとの違いがほとんどわからないんだ・・・ でもテンポがめちゃくちゃ良いから中毒的に何周も何周も遊べちまうんだ 時間を忘れて一日9時間以上ぶっ続けでやって全キャラのEND見てもまだ13個も未解除の実績が残ってる まだまだしゃぶり尽くせるとかもうダイオウイカのスルメなのよね その中でも何と言ってもちょっと癖のあるキャラ「鋼」 「鋼」に始まり「鋼」に終わるはずなのよ 初見さんからは一番使えないと思えるかもしれない定点狙いの溜め技の槍 これね、中ボスやボスに撃ってみなさい これ以上の快感ある? そんでね、ちゃんとルート分岐正門、回り道の順番で両方クリアしてみて これ以上の衝撃ある? でも結局「こより」が一番なんだよね ありがとう、良い薬です
가끔 킬링타임으로 한판씩 해주면 재밌음 ㅎㅎ
你根本不知道小时候在街机房看到巫女这个车灯给我的童年带来多大震撼。 我一度以为巫女都是这样穿的。 还挺硬核的,现在的我依然躲不开子弹。
2회차 // 여전히 퀄리티가 좋다고 느끼는게임이고 가로방향 진행방식이라는 차별점도 확실히 강점이다. 근데 시간이 지나고보니 그당시 슈팅게임들이 왜 대부분 세로방향을 채택했는지 이젠 이해가 간다. 확실히 총알피하는맛은 세로방향을 이길수가 없는것같다. 지금이라도 다음시리즈가 나왔으면 좋겠고 슈팅게임들도 업데이트가 되면서 캐릭터 추가나 스테이지 추가등이 생기면 오래 즐길수 있을듯하다. 평가 : ★★★☆ 1회차 // 1945의 게임성을 뛰어넘는 작품. 저당시 대부분 슈팅게임이 세로방향 진행방식이였는데 이게임은 신기하게 가로방향으로 하는방법을 택했는데 엄청난 인기를 끌었다. 게임성도 좋았지만 캐릭터들이 매력적이라 더욱 인기를 끌었던것같다. (미코=코요리) 오프닝은 그당시 엄청난 충격을 주었다.) 새턴판에는 마리온도 출전하는데 새턴판으로 이식되지않아 아쉬움이 있다. 역시나 게임은 훌룡했지만 스팀판에 개별판매는 매우아쉬운편. 그래도 고전 슈팅게임중 내마음속 NO.1 게임이다. 평점 : ★★★★
A Hidden Arcade Gem – Tengai Tengai is one of those arcade games that instantly reminds you why the golden age of arcades was so special. Developed by Psikyo, it takes the classic vertical shoot ’em up formula and adds a fantastic twist with its Japanese folklore setting, colorful characters, and incredible pixel art. Instead of the usual fighter jets and spaceships, you play as characters inspired by Japanese mythology, battling through stages filled with yokai, strange creatures, and imaginative bosses. The visual style is vibrant and full of personality, with beautiful sprites and charming animations that still hold up extremely well today. The gameplay is fast, tight, and challenging in the best arcade tradition. Enemy patterns keep you on your toes, bosses are memorable, and every run feels exciting whether you're playing for score or just trying to survive the chaos. Like many Psikyo shooters, the difficulty ramps up quickly, but it never feels unfair—just demanding enough to keep you coming back for “one more credit.” Another highlight is the soundtrack, which perfectly complements the fantasy setting and energetic gameplay. If you enjoy arcade shooters, retro pixel art, or games inspired by Japanese folklore, Tengai is absolutely worth playing. It’s a charming, challenging, and highly replayable classic that deserves more attention among shoot ’em up fans.

为情怀买单
이게임 진짜 어려워요 완전 쓰레기게임입니다. 진짜 실력자들만 사서 하세요 무한코인으로 하는데도 스트레스 엄청 받아서 머리카락 다 빠질뻔했습니다. 진짜 진짜 진짜로 인간쓰레기들이 만든게임이에요
小时候经常在街机厅玩这个,记得还有个隐藏英雄吧,不知道怎么选出来哈哈!
I’ve been meaning to buy Tengai because I played this game as a kid in front of a video rental store, and remembered how I enjoyed it very much. Yes, not an arcade, but at a video rental store. I couldn’t, however, because while waiting for a sale, and having to buy other games that I wanted to play more — who would prioritize this one over any other game? — the publisher pulled the game off the steam store list. I thought that was that. I had to accept the fact that I wouldn’t be able to play the game any longer. When I did, the game came back to the store. What the heck? Anyway, I got it as fast as I could, right? In fact, this time, I bought all the other ones to finish the collection. I finally got to enjoy the fun and nostalgia, though brief as it was. Kind of regret buying the game now to be honest, but at least I wouldn’t have to wonder or look at the store page now and then and second guess myself.
