Gamers Heroes writes: Shmups may be a dying breed, but Degica Games is keeping them alive with the localized Steam port of Castle of Shikigami. Does the game still hold upy, or is this one throwback not worth experiencing?
Degica Games have a reputation for bringing a variety of well known Japanese shoot ‘em ups (also called SHMUPs or STGs) to Steam.
Amid the sea of shmups available for Steam, Castle of Shikigami may be one dustier games in the bunch, but it's still a solid shooter worth your time.
Following in Cave’s footsteps, Alfa System is bringing their shmups to iOS too. If you have a Japanese iTunes account you can get Castle of Shikigami aka Mobile Light Force 2 today.
