What’s the Gameplay Like in Crunchyroll: Shogun Showdown?
In *Shogun Showdown*, every move is a calculated decision. Set on a single lane, your goal is to navigate through a treacherous path filled with adversaries. You take on the role of a samurai tasked with defeating a corrupted shogun who has plunged the world into chaos.
The game unfolds on a one-dimensional track, ranging from 4 to 12 spaces. Here, you'll manage queued moves, strategize attacks, reposition, and avoid being trapped by ashigaru warriors. With the ability to queue only three actions or attacks at a time, every decision is crucial. The game's procedurally generated runs ensure a fresh challenge with new obstacles, enemies, and layouts each time you play.
*Shogun Showdown* boasts stunning pixel art that captures the essence of feudal Japan. If you're eager to see it in action, take a moment to watch the official mobile launch trailer right here:
