Dawn of Kagura: Keika's Story
A roguelike where youkai recruitment trumps pure combat skill, randomized dungeon runs let you build wild synergies, but the UI won't win any awards.
GamerScout Verdict
For roguelike fans who value synergy-building over flashy presentation and don't mind replaying to discover recruit combos.

Every store in this table quotes us in euros, so the EUR figure is the price the seller actually set, not our arithmetic — which is why EUR is also the currency we rank in. We only list an offer here when the store gives us its price in euros, so nothing in this table is a number we invented.
Pick USD, PLN, GBP, CAD or AUD in the header and we convert from EUR at the European Central Bank reference rate — converted amounts are prefixed with ~. Your bank or the store may apply a different rate at checkout. We never hide offers based on where you are: everyone sees this whole table.
We may earn a commission when you buy games through links on this page — at no extra cost to you. It never affects our rankings or verdicts.

About Dawn of Kagura: Keika's Story
I approached this as a tactical roguelike and found something closer to a deck-builder with swords. You play Keika, a priestess exorcising youkai across procedurally shuffled dungeons, but the real strategy isn't in combat positioning, it's in deciding which recruits to keep and how their abilities stack. Each run reshuffles enemy types and loot, which sounds promising until repetition sets in fast. The replayability hook depends entirely on whether synergy discovery keeps you engaged, and for a 2022 indie title, the presentation doesn't do much to sweeten the grind. If you're comfortable with modest production values and want a low-friction rogue-like where team composition matters more than twitch reflexes, there's a functional game here. Just know you're buying raw mechanical depth, not polish or narrative pull. The youkai recruitment system has legs if you're willing to dig.
