InuYasha: The Secret of the Cursed Mask

About

InuYasha: The Secret of the Cursed Mask lets you play as a customizable teen boy or girl thrust from modern Tokyo into feudal Japan after stumbling on a mystical symbol. You join forces with the half-demon Inuyasha and anime heroine Kagome to hunt down fragments of the Sacred Jewel. Combat uses turn-based mechanics viewed from an over-the-shoulder angle, letting you mix physical strikes, character-specific techniques, and team combos. Story progression blends visual novel-style dialogue with traditional RPG exploration and random battles. The game leans heavily into its anime roots, offering a straightforward adventure that mirrors the series’ tone and characters. While the two playable scenarios share the same core story, choices in dialogue and interactions shape your role within the group. With its 2004 release on PS2, it captures early 2000s JRPG aesthetics and pacing. Players familiar with the InuYasha lore may find the narrative predictable but still enjoy the familiar cast and over-the-shoulder combat system.
