Great game
Played this game from young, still love it! Wish they can make more of these type of games.
A game of clicking through the cpu’s turn!
If you enjoy doing one action and then touching the screen twenty times to get through all the enemies turns, this game might be for you! Add in looking up how to play the game because you start out with no food and the gold goes to upgrade your province. After two hundred more enemy messages, enjoy getting your 15 gold and 8 food a year. Heavy taxation there! And maybe five years into the game, you’ll have enough food and gold to attack! All the while the computer is attacking left and right as you look at your low gold and food numbers that inch up each year. It’s a blast if you are the semi-conscious player!

Awful do not waste your money
CPU outpaces you at a silly rate even on lower difficulties. It's unplayable. I'm asking for a refund.
Nice and fun
Unlike the RTK2 there’s no generals or officials in this game, which could be a disappointment for some as lack of depth, but also making this strategic game easier to adapt to for non Japanese players. You don’t need any historical knowledge to enjoy the game. Just focus on the basics of strategic games, finding the right balance between strength and resources, and maneuvering according to opportunities or threats around you. You can even turn off the battle command if you only want to focus on the strategic side.

Waste of money
I’ve played other old school turn based games like RTK and Genghis Khan but this was unplayable. The computer builds resources and armies 5x as fast. I gave it a few attempts but was highly disappointed!
Hate to write a negative review but...
Really poor, especially given the price. Nothing is explained like what the decimaled numbers represent, of what is the importance of wealth, land. Had to find a snes manual online to kind of get the idea.
The battles are ludicrously slow paced and simple. Every piece moves on space. No explanation that calvary are twice as strong as standard troops and rifles are 4x as strong. No ranged attacks either, so it is like checkers. Bribes are only useful if it works to betray troops, moral reductions are pointless.
Numbers have no relative importance. Troops can be trained to over 1300, but are slightly better than troops better than 300.
The battles if completed by the computer don't win. I've sent double the troops just to lose them all, yet equal troops attacking my fiefs win.
Ninja attacks are pointless, as they reduce usually 5 to 10 of town value, which is commonly over 200, and easily over 500. A waste of a turn. Yet murders are stupidly powerful and seem to work easily, especially on low iq daiyos. Not worth training troops when you can just kill the leader.
So the game pretty much goes like this: first change tax rate to 50, next give peasants food. if you don't get killed in the first two turns, you can murder a neighboring daiyo and buy their land. Then put as much as you can into land and then take the surplus food and give it to the peasants. Repeat. Keep troops somewhat equal to neighbors and when you feel wealthy enough start buying troops. Take lands. Unify japan.
I unified the southwest like this, and just couldn,t keep motivated to unify the rest. Too slow and redundant/ tedious.
I got this after playing for over 10 hours. It is a huge waste of time and i am trying to get a refund.

Ridicules
One move per turn when computer gets 4 or 5 taking over fief after fief and every turn their fiefs economy increases ridicules amounts in just one turn but you can make only one move so while their land and town and gold and food increase 200 in one turn you spend the usually 100 gold given to you at the beginning between yours and then have to wait even longer to get the gold back!! Lol just buy it and you will see what a waste of money it was...
