War Diary
With this in mind, it comes to no surprise that Korean game studios decided to use the Imjin War as a template for several real- time strategy games. The first of these games is War Diary (충무공전: 난중일기편), named after the war diary of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, the Japanese commander who spearheaded the invasions. The game was developed by Trigger Soft Corporation in cooperation with HQ Team, an independent game studio. War Diary would later receive a sequel titled War Diary II: War Hero’s Story (충무공전 II : 난세 영웅전), this time developed by Trigger Soft alone. HQ Team released their own title based on this conflict, Seven Years War. Seven Years War in turn got its own sequel titled “Seven Years War 2” (임진록 2), a standalone expansion for said sequel as well as a planned third full entry in the series that was never released.
