About this game

Description

Supplied by the Steam store

Every match is a sword stroke. HOSHIKIRI is an action roguelike that turns the match-3 board into a duel: before each strike, the boss casts a red danger zone across the board and starts a countdown — and on the final step, your match IS your move.

The board is your blade

Dodge — make an empty swap inside the danger zone just before the blade lands to slip the blow untouched, at the cost of your attack.

Block — match along the strike's direction inside the zone to trade blows; 4- and 5-matches parry harder and counter harder.

Perfect Parry — shape an L or a cross inside the danger zone: negate all damage, unleash a massive critical counter, and shatter the boss's posture.

The Twelve Zodiac Maidens

Twelve bosses, twelve fighting styles. Read the wind-up, answer at the instant the blade falls — then break their posture and end the duel with a single overclocked finisher.

Every run redraws your star chart

Tarot cards, star signs, astral affixes and arcane runes weave a different build every run. Even defeat leaves you stronger for the next attempt.
