Description

A heavily modified version of Namco's Arcade brawler Genpei Touma Den, known in the west as The Genji and the Heike Clans, Genpei Touma Den: Computer Boardgame is an RPG where the player controls resurrected samurai Tairo no Kagekiyo in his quest for vengeance against the Genji clan. Kagekiyo travels the country searching for his eternal nemeses all the while fighting youkai and other monsters. These fights are depicted as one-on-one turn-based struggles where the player and creature's health is depicted as candles. Kagekiyo can regenerate health at shrines by spending money and can also level up stats at torii gates by spending "toku", or virtue. Both money and toku are earned defeating enemies. The game has a physical board game component as well. Included in the box is several miniatures and a fold-out board. Players use the board to move their pieces, but all combat is depicted in-game.
