This title introduces shogi through a lovable character, a grandfather who challenges the player and comments on their matches with a warm tone, rather than a cold rules engine. The difficulty is calibrated for those just starting out with the board game, with step-by-step explanations of openings and basic tactics.
It's one of many low-profile shogi games that filled the Japanese DS catalog; its value lies in the friendly interface more than in strategic depth, though the underlying game doesn't lack for that either.
