Evaluation
Touhou Gensokyo Visitor is a short kinetic novel (2–4 hours) that launched on October 30, 2020. In a December 26, 2020 developer blog post, the team announced that development on the base game had concluded and described two future plans: a small free DLC told from Yukari's point of view (to bridge the game and a planned sequel), and a separate sequel game. Following that post, the team delivered on their immediate maintenance commitments — Chinese translation (January 1, 2021) and achievement/performance bug fixes (February 12, 2021) — and then went completely silent. No further posts have appeared since February 12, 2021, no DLC has been listed on the store, and no sequel has been announced on Steam. The promised Yukari DLC and sequel were intentions communicated in late 2020, but neither has materialized in the years since, and the developer has made no further public statements. Given the extended silence since February 12, 2021 and the complete absence of any DLC listing or follow-up announcement, the game is best treated as a finished product. The base game shipped as a complete self-contained story, and the post-launch activity consisted entirely of localization and bug fix work that has since concluded.

About this game
■About■
This is a short kinetic novel, about 2-4 hours long (depending on your reading speed).
We tried to preserve the spirit of the Touhou universe. You will find a light humorous story about an ordinary guy whose life drastically changed one nice day when he accidentally got into Gensokyo. We have always wondered what a normal person would do if he found himself in such a situation.
All characters in the game are animated. We tried to make it as lively as possible in order to convey their personality.
■Story■
Welcome to Gensokyo, a land of fantasy and strange creatures. All things, that are impossible, incredible, or unnecessary for our world, sooner or later will end up in Gensokyo. Amazing creatures live here: gods and demons, fairies and wizards, ghosts and yokai.
The protagonist never dreamed of something incredible. He just lived just a normal life, went to work, until at some point he was in a strange forest. And he was very lucky that he met a girl dressed as a Shinto shrine maiden...
The protagonist will spend an unforgettable day here and take part in a very important event of one of the heroines.
■Characters■
The protagonist will meet some interesting people as he travels around Gensokyo:
Reimu is a shrine maiden of the Hakurei Shrine.
Marisa is a sorceress with terrifying destructive magic.
Cirno is an incredibly self-confident ice fairy.
Sakuya is the chief maid of the Scarlet Devil Mansion and a servant of Remilia Scarlet.
Yukari, a cunning youkai, one of the creators of Gensokyo.
Tenshi is a bored celestial, always ready for fun.
Also in one episode you can meet Remilia Scarlet, a powerful ancient vampire.
We hope you enjoy our interpretation of these characters.
