Story

*Hisha*, released by Microcabin in 1985 for the MSX, is a dedicated digital implementation of the traditional Japanese board game, Shogi. As a classic tabletop simulation, the game features no narrative or character-driven plot, focusing entirely on providing a competitive match against the computer. Players must employ deep strategic thinking and tactical foresight to outmaneuver their digital opponent on the shogi board. It serves as a historical example of early home computer software designed to bring the complexities of board games into the domestic digital space.
