About Devilish: The Next Possession

Devilish: The Next Possession is a paddle based game from Genki that incorporates a narrative premise. The core action involves controlling two stone paddles, which are a prince and princess transformed by a demon.

Gameplay revolves around a ball that must be kept in play. One paddle guards the bottom of the screen conventionally, while a second, more maneuverable paddle at the top can be positioned to direct shots. This dual paddle system defines its approach to the genre.

Progress is achieved by using the ball to break bricks and defeat enemy creatures across ascending stages. Each level culminates in a confrontation with a boss demon.
