About this game

A Famicom RPG based on a famous Japanese novel series of the same name. It was developed by Alpha Denshi and published by SNK. Satomi Hakkenden (usually translated as "The Eight Dog Chronicles") was a long-running 19th century novel series about eight samurais from the Sengoku period and their various adventures. It was in some ways partly inspired by the ancient Chinese epic The Water Margin, which has itself seen video game adaptations in the form of the Suikoden games. Re
