东方幻想乡 ~ Defence of The Shrines (Pinyin: Dōngfāng huànxiǎng xiāng) a.k.a Touhou DoTS is a custom Warcraft III map mod by the Chinese team led by HJISTIC where Touhou characters pit against each other on a similar gameplay mechanics from the highly popular custom map DoTA. Each team has to destroy the opponents' Shrine, either guarded by Genjii's Sons for the Hakurei side, or Onbashira Towers for the Moriya side at opposing corners of the map.

The first official English version of the game is 0.949c, released in 24th September, 2010 by LuckyCharat's team.

Gameplay

Similar to the original Defense of the Ancients, DotS starts out with a character selection, where each player selects a "touhou girl", either from the Hakurei Shrine or the Moriya Shrine. Gameplay typically involves leveling-up and earning points (gold) for better equipments through combat. While fending off your base from attacks, your ultimate goal is to make your way through enemy forces and destroy their shrine to achieve victory.

The noticeable differences in DotS is that the creeps have a chance to drop either "Points" or "Power" power ups. Points provides a small economical boost, while "Power" increases the girl's primary attribute. Additionally, a "Faith" system is included which is obtained every minute elapsed or by killing enemy girls or towers. Faith can be used to activate special powers. See the General Information for more specific information.

Even though DotS is heavily 'touhoufied' in every sense, it contains many similarities with DotA such as items from. These are mostly found under different names to enhance the unique flavour. Therefore, most experienced DotA players may find their transition to this game smooth.

As of now, the current version (0.977d3) has a selection of 62 girls (0.977 added Renko and Tokiko) varying from the first Windows Touhou game Embodiment of Scarlet Devil to the latest Windows game Fairy Wars, with the exception of Ten Desires.
