Play Bakumatsu Kourinden Oni (Japan) Online
Creepy yokai lurk in every shadow of this SNES RPG—you’ll fumble through foggy villages, scrape together a party, and pray your spear holds up when some toothy monster lunges from the dark. The music alone makes your spine itch.
Bakumatsu Kourinden Oni is a 1993 Super Nintendo Entertainment System release from Banpresto, arriving in the middle of the console's lifespan when developers were pushing the hardware with more complex RPGs. It stands out for its setting, drawing from the Bakumatsu period of Japanese history but layering it with heavy supernatural elements and yokai folklore.
You control a young man named Shinsuke, who must assemble a party and venture across a monster-infested Japan to recover scattered pieces of a sacred mirror. The gameplay involves screen by screen exploration of towns and dungeons, engaging in turn based combat against a bestiary of folkloric creatures using swords, spears, and magic. The pacing is deliberate, often demanding careful resource management as you navigate maze-like areas and tough enemy encounters. Playing it feels like cautiously exploring a haunted, historical scroll where every new screen could hide a deadly ambush.
