Sengoku 3

Sengoku Anthology is a collection of the three games from SNK's Sengoku arcade franchise including Sengoku (1991), Sengoku 2 (1993), and Sengoku 3 (2001). In addition to being able to play the classic arcade games on the PC and PS2, players can unlock artwork by completing each of the games in the collection. The Sengoku titles are classic scrolling beat'em up action games. Up to two players can play simultaneously. One of the features of these games is the ability to pick up power-ups to obtain new weapons or transform your character into special characters. In Sengoku 3, players choose different characters with unique weapons and special attacks at the beginning of each level.

The game takes a greater departure from its predecessors in both story and presentation. The heroes are now members of a ninja clan who have to dispatch an evil emperor before he is released. Players can choose which character they want for the first time, each having their own strengths and weaknesses. Two bosses that confront the player can also be playable after a certain chapter of the game, allowing players to re-select their character if they wish.

In Sengoku 2, a warrior from the future is summoned by a prophetic princess to feudal Japan, where an evil monarch has gained supernatural powers to control the dead. The player must battle through armies of reanimated souls to restore peace to a land where the weak have fallen prey to the strong.
