I didn’t expect a game about the Demon Slayer Corps to make me blush harder than losing a match in front of chat, but here we are. The logic puzzles look innocent, clean even, with that cozy click of tiles sliding into place - until you start unlocking “rewards.” I don’t even think rewards is the right word. When Tanjirou’s voice line kicked in after merging a perfect set, it sounded like a mix between a moan and a sigh, just a bit too long on the inhale. Maybe it was a glitch, or maybe those devs knew exactly what they were doing. And the way Shinobu’s eyes shift after the fifth stage, a fraction too slow, gives the strange impression she’s watching *you*, not the other way around. I kept thinking about the sound design, the wet pop when you connect two higher-tier buildings - it’s subtle, but yeah, definitely intentional.

What’s funny is that it’s all framed as upgrading headquarters, yet it ends up feeling like you’re teasing characters rather than managing structures. I made a perfect combo once and everything pulsed pink, even the damn cursor. Kanao shows up then, quiet but dripping with unspoken... something. Her blush animation could melt steel, but sometimes it freezes the frame entirely and forces you to restart. Infuriating, but in a weirdly rewarding way. You start thinking, “Okay, maybe one more merge, maybe the next one shows something wilder,” and then hours later your coffee’s cold and you’re still chasing one more perfect set. It scratches that part of the brain that likes order and filth at the same time.

I can't decide if the best part is the weird ASMR-engineered effect of the demon-slaying soundtrack or the slow reveal of how much of this game is secretly a fetish for control. It’s horny but methodical, like foreplay dictated by spreadsheets. The click, the glow, the sudden gasp - and then silence. Hate how much I loved that silence.
