Hakkenden: The Eight Beads

When Princess Fuse's prayer beads scattered, eight of them flew across the land. Each bears a single virtue: Benevolence, Duty, Courtesy, Wisdom, Loyalty, Faith, Filial Piety, Brotherhood. Each has found its way to the heart of a young warrior. A late-NES-style Japanese RPG based on Kyokutei Bakin's classic epic Nanso Satomi Hakkenden.
