Mario Party but make it Demon Slayer is the best way to describe this title. In it, you’ll roll the dice and aim to become the strongest Demon Slayer as you move from locations from the anime, like Mt. Fujikasane and Asakusa that appear as boards in this game. Advance on the game board by rolling the dice as it switches between day and night. During the day, prepare for the night with events and minigames. At night, you will search for demons to defeat.
For characters, you’ll get to choose ones from the Demon Slayer Corps. which currently include Tanjiro, Zenitsu, Inosuke, and the Hashira. That said, Nezuko only appears on the game board to aid players as a support character.
Additionally, the controls of the game use the joy-con experience on the Switch, allowing you to fight demons by waving them like a Nichirin sworf.
