Gameplay

edit

The player controls Seija Kijin, the main character, to take down bosses and avoid the bullets. Due to the bullets being nearly too dense to avoid directly, the player must use a series of 9 cheat items which belong to other characters of Touhou Project to finish the avoidance. All levels in Impossible Spell Card may be completed without the use of items, however.

Gold Rush

edit
 
Seija fighting Sekibanki. Impossible Spell Card features danmaku patterns that are impossible to avoid without the usage of items.

On November 16, 2014, ZUN released Danmaku Amanojaku ~ Gold Rush (弾幕アマノジャク ゴールドラッシュ), a single-stage mini game based on Impossible Spell Card where Seija Kijin uses a tenth cheat item that can turn bullets into money. It was made under 2 days specifically for the Digital Game Expo 2014's "Doujin Shooting Game Caravan" contest, where it was available to be played.[4][5]
