Plot
The game takes place in an alternate historical version of the year 1600, following the death of Toyotomi Hideyoshi and the subsequent attempt by the robotic samurai armies of Tokugawa Ieyasu to take control of the nation. The player controls one of three color-coded warriors riding hoverbikes, each with the typical tradeoffs of speed and firepower:
- Saiga Magoichi (said to be the granddaughter of the historical Saiga Magoichi), dressed in yellow and riding a hoverbike roughly shaped like Suzaku. Quick but weak, she throws homing fans and has a 360-degree fan swing for a charged attack
- Sanada Yukimura, dressed in red and riding a hoverbike shaped like a horse. The middle character, his speed and firepower fall in the average between the other two. He throws homing kunai and has a katana strike for his charged attack
- Shima Sakon, dressed in blue and riding a heavy hoverbike shaped like a horse; the Japanese version of the game refers to it as the "Matsukaze 1000". The slow-but-heavy firepower character, he attacks with throwing spears and a heavy spear charge attack.
