Sengoku Ace, also known as Samurai Aces in the English version, is a vertically-scrolling shoot 'em up video game originally releasaed in the arcades by Psikyo in 1993. It was the first game by Psikyo and was designed by Shin Nakamura, the creator of Aero Fighters (Sonic Wings) and the company's founder.

Sengoku Ace was released in the Japanese arcades on April 22, 1993. In December 2004, the game was ported to PlayStation 2 as part of the Psikyo Shooting Collection Vol. 2: Sengoku Ace & Sengoku Blade by Taito and 505 Games. It also was re-released one year later as a budget-range title.

Sengoku Ace was followed by two sequels, Sengoku Blade: Sengoku Ace Episode II in 1996 and Sengoku Cannon: Sengoku Ace Episode III in 2004. The Sengoku series characters, along with the ones from Psikyo's Gunbird series, later joined up with several Capcom characters (especially from the Street Fighter fame) in the crossover game Taisen Net Gimmick: Capcom & Psikyo All Stars, released for the Dreamcast in 2001.

PLOT:
The science fantasy story of Sengoku Ace resolves around the six Feudal Japan (Sengoku period) characters sent on a mission to stop an evil cult and rescue the shogun's kidnapped daughter, princess Tsukihime (Moon Princess), before she can be used as a sacrifice to resurrect their demon god. The game features 21 endings, different for various characters and 2-player pairings.

CHARACTERS:
- Flush (Flash) / Ayin / Aine - A 25-year-old, one-eyed, blonde samurai flying a J-9, who is looking for his sister Asuka. He is voiced by Hisao Egawa.

- Gen / Gennai - A 77-year-old scientist with a small robot assistant named Ranmaru, who flies a small, agile "Super Fighter" plane. He is voiced by Daisuke Gori.

- Jane Hayate - A 21-year-old blonde and blue-eyed beautiful female ninja who flies a glider. She is voiced by Hiroko Emori.

- Kenno (Kenno Maru) / Kenoumaru / Ohmaru - A "super genius dog" flying a high-tech F-15 aircraft (according to some of his team play endings, really a young man sealed in a dog form).

- Miko / Koyori (Koyori Togashi) - A 17-year-old miko priestess with a fascination for money, who flies a biplane. In Sengoku Ace, Koyori is still very young and tomboyish. She is also voiced by Hiroko Emori.

- Tengai (Tengai Kano) - A 50-year-old Japanese Buddhist wandering monk who flies a bizarre bird-like plane. He is also voiced by Daisuke Gori.
