Description:
Gensokyo: Coexistence or Extinction

Mod Version: 0.7

Compatible Game Version: 1.18.*


Story Background

On a morning in 1936, Hakurei Shrine has no ash from burning ofuda—only a gohei lying toppled on the stone steps. The 44th shrine maiden has met an untimely death, and Gensokyo, sustained for half a century, loses its fulcrum—the barrier tears like a rent sky, the cold light of the Outside seeps in, and even “legends” begin to fade.

This world—sealed away, protected, and also tamed—was never a utopia. Humans seek stability in the Human Village; youkai seek survival in the shadows. Hakurei’s judgment was the final line, and now that line has collapsed: the old rules no longer work, the new order has not yet been written, and Gensokyo is falling apart.

Yukari Yakumo stands before the rift. She is the founder of the barrier and the gatekeeper of Gensokyo; her gaps can reach any corner, but may not be able to push “reality” back. Do you lock the world shut again and force all beings into obedience? Or do you open the door and gamble on survival?
Gensokyo: Coexistence or Extinction—your choice will decide whether it can still be remembered.
