| There are some pretty cool depictions of yokai in the game
| Ghostwire: Tokyo if anyone's curious - weird umbrella spirits[0],
| cute little Kodama[1] and such. The Hyakki Yagyo that is
| mentioned in the article also makes an appearance:

| The game itself has a lot of very nice visuals and I'd recommend
| giving it a shot. Note: it's a decently sized game but I kinda
| ruined my experience of it by trying to 100% one specific thing.
| If anyone reading this decides to give it a shot: don't do what I
| did, just follow your nose and explore whatever's interesting and
| don't try to save every soul unless you're _really_ wanting the
| "Hero of Shibuya" achievement (it's not _that_ rare, like 4% of
| players got it at the point I completed it).

| static screenshots look a bit weird and internet video is
| often a bit compressed to truly appreciate the look :)

| Not as cinematic as it's a Team Ninja game but nice coincidence
| for this to come up on HN.
