The Empire has foreseen an attack from creatures from a different realm. As the wind changes, their fears materialize along with the Portal of the Oni. The vile creatures are ready to invade, but the brave soldiers of the Empire are prepared to defend their land.

Take turns to construct your buildings and rice fields, deploy your units, and attack the Oni. You’ve got Samurais, Geishas and Ninjas under your command, but be wary, for the Oni have a similar hierarchy! Defend your Castle, and destroy the Portal of the Oni to stop the evil that spreads through the land!

Disclaimer:
Onigami was originally developed as an academic prototype around mid-2017 and although it has since received polish and bug-fixes, it might still be rough around the edges and lacking polish in some aspects of the game.

Features

• Player vs AI TBS action! Buy your buildings, place them around each other, and wait until they deploy units, which you can move around to attack the enemy!
• Train the All-Round Samurais, the ranged and nimble Ninjas, or the healing tactical Geishas! Push with raw strength, weaken them from afar, or flank and support with grace!
• Build rice fields to increase your money flow, and place banners to spread faster across the land!
• Choose how tall and wide you’d like to generate the world!

• The Samurai Bell, Ninja Dojo and Geisha Theatre train units of their respective kind after a certain amount of turns after which they can be placed down and used actively.
• The Rice Fields will generate an amount of Gamis (in-game currency) after a certain amount of turns.
• The War Banners expand the borders in which you can place down buildings by twice the amount of a normal building, but only two can be placed down at one time.

Unit-Specific

• Samurai and Samurai are melee-attack based units, they can attack units, buildings or environment next to them.
• Ninjas and Oninjas are able to range-attack any units, buildings or environment inside of their range without having to walk next to it.
• Geishas and Geishoni can heal other units, so they’re always useful to have around.
