Daemon Bride is one of the lesser-known titles by Examu, released only in arcades in Japan. Sporting a balanced roster with angelic and demonic themes, Daemon Bride is a game about a bunch of high schoolers that have contracts with demons or angels. It features staples such as a succubus with a pretty boy and an alluring female with a magic snake, but also more oddball characters such as a gang member with angry quid and a dog with Satan as a bird.
The fighting game takes on a holy vs. hell theme, but still maintains Arcana Heart’s four-button scheme of weak attack, strong attack, shooting (formerly the Arcana deity assist in the latter series), and dashing. For those intimidated by the fast-paced action, a simple mode can be activated for easier activation of moves.
