Sengoku (series)

Sengoku is a series of beat 'em ups by SNK for the Neo-Geo. The original name of this game is Sengoku Denshou (戦国伝承) which means "Civil War Tradition" in Japanese.

Plot
Although each of the games in the series do not seem to follow a connected plot, the games all involve the undead forces of feudal Japanese warriors attacking the protagonists.

In the first two games, the player could play as a ninja or a western cowboy. In the games, the player can gain powerups so that the player can change into a more powerful samurai-like being to attack the opposing forces of the undead.

The third game did not have a similar premise to the previous two games, instead, it was about a ninja clan who had to stop a worldwide outbreak of the Japanese demons before the world would be engulfed in chaos.
