Available now on the Crunchyroll Game Vault, this game, developed by Roboatino and published by Goblinz Studio and Gamera Games, brings a refreshing twist to turn-based combat that has captivated players on PC and consoles alike.
In *Shogun Showdown*, strategic thinking is your sword. Set on a single-lane battlefield, you embody a samurai on a quest to overthrow a corrupted shogun whose dark influence has unleashed chaos across the land. The combat takes place on a linear track, ranging from 4 to 12 spaces, where you'll manage your moves meticulously. With the ability to queue only three attacks or actions at a time, every decision you make is crucial. The game's procedurally generated runs ensure that you face new challenges, enemies, and layouts with each playthrough.
The pixel art style of *Shogun Showdown* beautifully captures the essence of feudal Japan, immersing you in its atmospheric world. Curious to see it in action? Check out the official mobile launch trailer embedded below:
