In this war strategy sim, the player takes control of legendary daimyo and military genius Shingen Takeda during the Sengoku period of Japan in the 16th century. The goal is to unify the nation of Japan under Shingen’s rule. It was developed by Another and published by Hot-B and would eventually be followed with a sequel, Takeda Shingen 2, in 1989. Though the sequel received a US version (renamed Shingen the Ruler), the original remained a Japan-only release.
