Alright, so let's get back into business with Touhou TCL LNB.
I think perfect run is viable with a little more effort, but for now - No Bomb clear should suffice.
Touhou 東方宝天京 ～ Treasure Castle Labyrinth is a fan-made Touhou game developed by UWASA Enterprise, made using Touhou Danmakufu ph3sx shooting game engine.
From what can be seen on Touhou Wiki: "[It] was first conceptualized as a hypothetical Touhou fangame by Iroboshi of iroirodou between 2009 and 2010, and was later made into a music album in 2014 with the help of Pesot.jp/. Development of the Treasure Castle Labyrinth game began in 2018, spearheaded by DOGSDAY. In 2020, the members of both iroirodou and DOGSDAY came together and established a common circle dedicated to the game's development: UWASA Enterprise."
I think it wouldn't be an overstatement to say it was a very anticipated fangame. I was eagerly waiting for this one to be completed and released. And not gonna lie, it's a really well done piece of a game. So, as I'm back from the break, let's play that one first!
-----
Clasically, the game contains six stages to beat, with additional Extra stage, Labyrinth stage and Sequel stage. The recent update added unlockable Universe spells as well, bringing another tough challenge to the player.
Game offers three teams, and you can change who is the focused or unfocused shot, which is quite unique.
I've played only Marisa-Byakuren combo. I can tell the team is quite powerful, with Marisa focused shot blasting off bosses and Byakuren taking care of stage enemies pretty nicely. Reimu-Tenshi team benefits from smaller hitbox and is also powerful, and Sanae-Futo is more oriented around scoring apparently.
As for the main mechanic, it's the Treasure Lantern system. At the start of the game, the player can choose whether to bring the Treasure Lantern along or not; choosing the latter will disable the Treasure Lantern system entirely - which is the case here.
When using the lantern system, you can pick up three Large Lamp Items, which are dropped by certain enemies, and then press "C" to start Light Up Mode, which is a hyper of sorts. At the end of it, some items will be rewarded, depending on the color of the graph when Light Up Mode begins - this is controlled by collecting Small Lamp Items, altering the color of it.
Red: 2 life pieces
Yellow: 1 life piece + 1 bomb piece
Green: 2 bomb pieces
Cyan: 1 bomb piece + 1 large point item
Blue: 2 large point items
Magenta: 1 large point item + 1 life piece
As for the gameplay, stages, and bosses, I can say the bosses are really fun to play. While early stages are quite "meh" (not too good, tho not too bad), the later ones make up for it.
Most of the patterns are quite predictable, but in a good way. They can be difficult (and some truly are!), but they don't rely that much on RNG, which is good. Maybe with the exception of one of Amane Shin's nonspells and fourth Last Spell... Welp, we can't have everything, right?

![[Touhou x osu!] 东方琴鼓歌 ~ TDaMR v4.1.1 || Level Pack 5 [FC/Perfect]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/NaX_0aJXFos/mqdefault.jpg "[Touhou x osu!] 东方琴鼓歌 ~ TDaMR v4.1.1 || Level Pack 5 [FC/Perfect]
Various songs from groups: NAGI, IOSYS, FELT, SPACELECTRO and Rolling Contact.
Level Pack 5 of 东方琴鼓歌 ~ Thunder Drum and Mysterious Rhythm.
Difficulty: Hard (8+ to 9+). Final ranks: Phi/Omega (Full Combo/Perfect).
[ Overview ]
Thunder Drum and Mysterious Rhythm is a Touhou fangame based on LuaSTG engine, made by 吃药图书 (https://space.bilibili.com/24053931) - the same guy responsible for LuaSTG Multi-Boss Rush (https://youtu.be/NIakZN6b9Nw) and Gensokyos Day and Night Incident (https://youtu.be/9NFK3XvbcNs).
The game combines Touhou with osu!s three game modes: Mania, Taiko and Catch the Beat. During all 60 tracks available across various difficulty levels, one will have to dodge the bullets, and also tap to the beat - during Mania, Taiko or CtB sections!
Sometimes youll face one of these, sometimes all of them, or even alternating rapidly on the most difficult ones.
All the tracks have awesome Touhou remixes of various kind. Recently it expanded, using even songs from popular rhythm songs! (And not gonna lie, Im quite concerned about legal use of them.)
[ Song Packs & Difficulties ]
As of v4.1.1 there are 11 song packs, in which most of songs will contain Easy/Normal/Hard version of songs. Sometimes Lunatic songs are present, which usually are way higher than an ordinary song.
The difficulty split is a result of recent v4.0.0 major update. Before that, most of songs had only one given difficulty, thus giving some relief for novices, and some extra difficulty for more experienced players.
Each song has a number indicating a real difficulty level (aka Arcaea notation). Only a few of them have level 10 and above, and are just crazy.
These of lower number might have one or two rhythm modes along the dodging. Mode switching is distinct.
As the level goes higher, more modes are used and are usually tougher, especially visible in Mania tracks. One should expect more Hard/Lunatic level bullet barrage too.
[ Ability Points ]
As with v4.0.0, the game introduced Ability Points. They measure overall players performance. Depending on the map, its difficulty (assigned level value) and players performance, one will gain or lose the points with consecutive runs.
It changes with each completed run. The exact formula is unknown to me, but surely depends on relationship between your AP level and maps level. Having a bad run on easier map while your AP is high will lower it down. OTOH having a great run on Hard/Lunatic run with low/moderate AP will substantially raise it. Nothing unusual in it I guess.
Apart from it, player levels from v2.0.0 are still there. Since you gain XP with each run, Id rather treat them as How much time Ive already wasted.
[ Achievements ]
The game contains achievements, and they have various rarity.
Some require perfecting/FC X amount of times, some perfecting certain song/difficulty, some are usually given when one meets certain conditions, like perfecting the map but having only one player hit, or score going negative (Yes, it is possible, very easily).
Requirements are unfortunately in Chinese, which doesnt help in acquiring them. Try your best nonetheless!
