In Kitsune's Paths, you will step into the role of Zenko: A fox guardian of the forests, responsible for protecting the portal that guides benevolent spirits to the next spiritual plane. Use your magical powers, speed, and wits to activate the turrets you'll find along the way, preventing demons from crossing the portals, and gradually becoming the legendary nine-tailed fox.

In this Tower Defense, you are the protagonist. Explore the maps, strategically lighting up turrets according to the type of enemy you’re facing.

Unlock new skills and level up your character. The full game will include a skill tree to upgrade the spells of your choice.

Complete challenging levels to discover new worlds and help more benevolent spirits cross through the toriis. For each world protected, you will be granted a new tail, until you become the mythical nine-tailed fox.
