In early feudal Japan, a man named Shiro Tokisada Amakusa preaches a heretic religion. Little does anyone know that Amakusa is really a servant of the evil Ambrosia, who had possessed and taken over Amakusa's body, as Ambrosia wishes to shroud the world into eternal darkness. Now, the player must select from out of 12 fierce warriors and plus 3 bonus characters in order to fight for the honor of defeating Amakusa once and for all. (mobygames.com)

I was intrigued when this came out but I couldn't get into it as much as the way more accessible Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat. But, upon reflection, it's just as excellent: interesting characters, a cool weapon-based fighting style (where you can even lose your sword), and an elegance to it that not even the more popular games could match. A worthy competitor.
