Warbands: Bushido is a new digital board game, and it's looking pretty special.

The game landed on the App Store at the end of last week, and it's fair to say that Table Tap's interest has been piqued. Piqued I say!

The game is set in feudal Japan, and it has all the trappings you'd expect from a board game. There are dice, there are cards, there are miniatures, it's just that they only exist on your phone or tablet.

There's a thick single player campaign that plays like a classic turn-based RPG, and multiplayer skirmishes that owe more to tabletop experiences like Mordheim. Basically, there's something for everyone here.

We'll hopefully be covering Warbands: Bushido (buy for iOS) in more detail in the coming days, so make sure you keep your eyes on the Table Tap section. It'd be awful if you missed something.
