TRIVIA

Reikai Doushi was released in September 1988.

The title of this game translates from Japanese as 'Priest of the Spirit World'.

At the beginning of the development, this game was supposed to be an adult fighting game but the plan changed.

The zombie-like hopping enemies that the player fights against are called 'kyonshi', which in Chinese lore are literally 'Hopping vampires'.
