I came to the booth of Takami Laboratory of the Osaka Electro-Communication University Digital Game Department that reproduced Mega Daisen Shogi and put it into a touch panel game.


Mega Daisen Shogi was a large shogi invented in the latter half of the Heian period, thought to be not actually played because of the number of frames of 192, but as a result of reprint, It is said that the ancient battle and the world view of Buddhism were mixed and it turned out that it was actually a very interesting shogi.


Although the board of Mega Daisen Shogi was not exhibited in the booth, the appearance that you were playing with the actual board was reflected on the monitor.


An old document that this is written about Mega Shogi. Even if an amateur looks at it, it is impressive to see what is written, it is a shock that it reads and understands this and reproduces it.



This figure shows the pieces of the initial arrangement. The board is 19 squares in length and breadth, and the kind of pieces is 26 kinds of back side of 50 kinds of tables. The number of pieces to place is 192 pieces totaling 96 pieces on one side.


Illustration of Nomiki. Although players play alternately in the same way as regular shogi, there are no gimmicks to take as opponent's pieces and use them as their pieces.


The red line indicates that the piece shows possible movements.


Advanced Mega Dai Shogi made it possible for anyone to play Mega Dai Shogi reproduced over the years like this without a board.


I shot while playing, so the pieces move to various places.


This is output to the PC monitor. Because the board surface is large, the larger screen to output also makes it easier to see.


Mei Shi Shogi has an average of 500 hands, and it takes about 2 hours and 30 minutes for the game time, but the advanced Mega Daisen Shogi has succeeded in shortening the average time of 400 hands and the game time to 40 minutes. It's easy for anyone to feel free to play.


You can see how you actually play Mega Daisen Shogi from the following movie.
