| - Sengoku Musou Shoot (戦国無双 シュート) is the second social game adaptation of the Samurai Warriors series and another IP made to commemorate the series's tenth anniversary. Music and sound effects are based on Sengoku Musou Chronicle 2nd, although the Samurai Warriors 4 cast, music, and visuals are being included. 100man-nin no Sengoku Musou character visuals are reused for the 2D portraits and 3D character models. It is free-to-play with micro-transactions available for koku, which is used for limited rare gacha roulettes and other paid content. Hisashi Koinuma is the producer and Hiroshi Kataoka is the director. Shoot was designated to be a smartphone app to give first-hand development experience for the device to the Omega Force team. Their overall goal was to present the series's action and characters stories in an unique way that can appeal to returning fans and newcomers. Koinuma is happy to personally be involved with the creation of a game using the miniature versions of the cast since 100man-nin was created by GREE. He later stated that the company originally wanted to create a typical card game experience, but Koinuma personally rejected the idea. When asked to present an alternative, Koinuma thought upon his childhood memories of playing smartball, a pinball and pachinko-like gaming device, and pitched the idea of "playing bowling with the main characters". This idea was rearranged and finalized for Shoot. Saya is the navigation character due to her popularity with the development team. The game is a light-hearted parody of the series with non-canonical stories about the cast. The first main story is the protagonist being entangled with the Samurai Warriors cast while on a quest to find fine regional cuisine. Its secondary narrative has the three unifiers entrust the protagonist to collect treasures across the land. Services ended on December 30, 2015.
