### 5/5 — Koei Games are Great

*2026-07-08*

Love the look of the game, reminds me of Kessen 3 on PS2 lovely graphics. Fun game play and development.

### 5/5 — Good game

*2026-04-22*

Even though I have not played long enough this game is by the easiest to start off

### 5/5 — Latest update

*2025-07-29*

After this latest update, my iPhone 14 will not open the game.

### 1/5 — Cheaters

*2025-04-05*

This is a game that can be great the Japanese version is really good! But the American server is all cheaters! I have dropped lots of money on Server 3 and still there is one player named Jzscz in server 3 been cheating over and over with hacks! The devs refuse to fix anything or promote the game anymore!

### 1/5 — Unbalanced Scam Game

*2025-01-12*

The entire content is a build up grind while you are in danger of getting looted. Building up commanders is limited to very expensive gacha systems which work with fake numbers and additional price pools that are not described in the description but will lead you massiv output of useless units 99% of the time while some units are just not obtainable by common means. Other events for cosmetic items are horrendously overpriced and lucky wheels with chances of around 0,01%. If you dont happen to be in an alliance with big spenders prepare to be looted regularely and lose all guild terretory, in this game 1-2 overpowered marches of one player can take down entire clans of players without issues. I dont see how these 5* reviews could be real, 80% of our server population already quitted or demanded refunds.

### 3/5 — Sheesh

*2024-11-02*

Can’t log into my account it’s been restricted & no reason why

### 5/5 — Awesome!

*2024-10-24*

Totally Awesome!  Been waiting for a game like this for Long Time.  I like the “Taiga Drama” Theme’s and the Historical Samurai’s portrayed in the game. I am a Japanese Samurai History buff so this is Very Cool!!  I’d like to ask the developers to bring Toyotomi Hideyoshi (Taiko) to the game.  Also I’d like to see the developers create a “Samurai Warriors” game to go along with this one.  Again, Totally Awesome Game!  とても素晴らしい !!

### 1/5 — Avoid - devs committing fraud daily

*2024-10-23*

The game is dying at the hands of the developers who don’t seem to care about servers outside of Japan. They hide behind poor translation to scam people out of money and defraud them on an ongoing basis. Suggest you look at the 100s of issues in discord before downloading this game

### 1/5 — Trash game

*2024-10-07, version 1.2.3*

Counter unit but being defeated by counter unit without doing damage. This game is really trash and there is nothing in this world more trashy

### 1/5 — money money money

*2024-09-20, version 1.2.3*

you can’t play without spend tons of dollars if you want to reach high levels
