Kingdom: Ikkitousen No Tsurugi! is a slash-and-hack game based off of the manga Kingdom. This game has a lot similarity to Dynasty Warrior franchise in terms of controls, attack combos, field items and winning conditions. The only thing that makes this game unique is the 5 man squad combat system, where the character can do combos with the other 4 members of the squad. When your character has gained enough power (from attacking, taking damage, or just charging it up by holding one of the two attack buttons) you can unleash the special attack that varies on the type of squad you are using. You are not the only player that can do this though, as some enemies can use special attacks.

There are two game modes in the game:

Story Mode: Plays as Shin throughout the story. When finishing this mode you will unlock Hard Mode that do not have much changes in story, just the enemies will be a lot stronger (Imagine Hard Mode Hou Ken in the Battle of Bayou).

Alternative Mode: Create your own Squads with a main characters and level them up like RPG games. In this mode you can buy weapons, armor, accessories to each squad member, as well as unlocking most of characters from the Hi Shin Unit. There are a lot of bonus chapters to play that will be summarize later.
