About the Game

Shin Satomi hakkenden (新里見八犬伝, literally "New Legend of the Eight Dogs of Satomi"), aka Eight Epics: Hakkenden, is a licensed version of Seiji Kanai's Eight Epics that draws on Toshio Kamata's 1982 novel of the same title – which was also the basis of Kadokawa's 1983 movie Legend of the Eight Samurai (里見八犬伝 Satomi hakkenden) – for its setting, with players trying to use the dice-manipulation powers of the eight characters in the game to chase away evil spirits.
