Journey to the magical country of Alcaland and unravel the mystery behind its missing people. As one of ten powerful psychics summoned to solve the incident, are you strong enough to delve into the depths of the Swan Castle and discover the truth, or will you succumb to its nightmare? You can now enjoy the 2-player exclusive scenarios from the arcade version of Castle of Shikigami III even when playing by yourself as a result of a new mode. Dramatic Change Mode is a new feature for the home versions where you can change between 2 characters on the fly. The home version also includes a gallery mode. Shikigami No Shiro III resembles past entries of the character-driven, scrolling shooter series, with its vertical display and anime cut-ins. This time around, players select from 10 warriors whom they directly navigate—you'll find no ships in this game. The game includes 5 stages of blasting action, each cumulating in a major boss fight.
