Our take on The Smell of Death - A Tsugunohi Tale - STEAM EDITION
The game trades display flexibility for its older production-tool setup: windowed mode cannot be resized through the game, and F12 is assigned to returning to the title screen rather than capturing screenshots.
What is The Smell of Death - A Tsugunohi Tale - STEAM EDITION?
This horror game presents a 3D dungeon viewed from a forward-moving perspective.
The vendor compares its movement through the dungeon to Wizardry, with sudden frightening events appearing ahead. Monster battles add a combat system not usually found in the Tsugunohi series. The Steam Edition includes a hard mode and a later story that appears after completing it. A first playthrough is estimated at 60 minutes on normal difficulty and 90 minutes on hard difficulty. The game starts in full-screen mode, while F4 switches between full-screen and windowed display. Windowed mode cannot be resized through the game, and F12 returns to the title screen instead of taking a Steam screenshot.
