Press Quotes
“A near flawless roguelike, Shogun Showdown flaunts excellent depth, and an easy-to-learn but hard to master gameplay loop.” 9/10 – GAMEGRIN “Shogun Showdown is an instant indie essential. A perfect little core of left-to-right puzzle-styled violence that plays like a sort of bloody rhythm game” 9/10 – NintendoLife “I Love this Absolute Branger Tactical Roguelike” Olexa
