In *Shogun Showdown*, strategic thinking is key. Set on a single-lane board, you step into the shoes of a samurai tasked with overthrowing a corrupted shogun who has unleashed chaos upon the land. The game unfolds on a one-dimensional track, varying from 4 to 12 spaces, where you must meticulously manage your moves, queue up attacks, shift positions, and avoid being trapped by ashigaru warriors.
Every decision counts in *Crunchyroll: Shogun Showdown* as you're limited to queuing just three actions or attacks at a time. The procedurally generated runs ensure that each playthrough presents new challenges with unique enemies, obstacles, and map layouts.
