Shogun Showdown, a captivating addition to the Crunchyroll Game Vault, launched in September 2024 for PC and consoles before making its way to mobile platforms. Developed by Roboatino and published by Goblinz Studio and Gamera Games, this roguelike combat deckbuilder has quickly garnered acclaim for its innovative approach to turn-based combat.
What’s the Gameplay Like in Crunchyroll: Shogun Showdown?
In Shogun Showdown, strategic thinking is your key to survival. Set in a single lane, the game challenges you to navigate a perilous path where every enemy is out to end your journey. As a samurai tasked with defeating a corrupted shogun who has unleashed chaos upon the world, your every move counts.
Combat occurs on a one-dimensional track, typically ranging from 4 to 12 spaces. You'll be managing your actions carefully, queuing up to three attacks or maneuvers at a time, while dodging ashigaru warriors and other foes. With procedurally generated runs, each playthrough offers new challenges, enemies, and map layouts.
The game's pixel art 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 below:
