Play Seirei Gari (Japan) Online
You creep through haunted villages as an exorcist, luring ghosts into talismans while dodging their attacks—those flickering pixel blobs somehow stay unnerving. The stiff controls and brutal difficulty make every ghost hunt tense.

Seirei Gari is a Japan-only NES release from 1987, developed by TOSE and published by Toei Animation. It came out during a time when the console was flooded with action and platforming titles, but this one stood out for its unusual theme; you play as an exorcist, not a soldier or a hero, tasked with cleansing villages of restless spirits.
You control a lone spirit hunter who moves screen by screen through haunted locations, from rural houses to misty graveyards. Your main objective is to purify each area by capturing every ghost using special talismans. The core mechanics involve careful positioning to lure ghosts into your talisman's range, timing your throws just right, and constantly evading their attacks since contact drains your health quickly. The pacing is deliberate, almost cautious; you can't rush in. Mistakes are punishing, and the limited continues mean you learn through repetition. It feels like a slow, tense game of supernatural tag where every successful capture brings a small wave of relief.
