### 5/5 — 童年回忆

*2025-12-13, version 4.0.5*

正因为这个游戏我认识到了战国，竟然玩到了正版，不胜感激！

### 2/5 — 童年回忆

*2025-12-12*

正因为这个游戏我认识到了战国，竟然玩到了正版，不胜感激！

### 4/5 — Game play and future updates.

*2024-04-08, version 4.0.3*

The game is great if you want a calm grinding Sengoku Jidai war game. I do wish the dev would add a genpei war period though.

Overall love the art, ez fighting, and gas option of clans.

### 5/5 — 对战中插入广告糟透了！

*2024-04-03*

在本地对战中插入强制观看的广告让游戏体验变得无比糟糕👎，这样好像逼着我购买免广告服务一样，我愿意为这样一款富有诗意并且足够古色古香的游戏付钱但不是以这种形式！如果真的想盈利请好好学习一下腾讯或者日本光荣的购买机制，武将，技能，宝物，官位，特殊建筑都可以成为购买的对象，现在商店里出售的商品毫无吸引力。
我希望这个游戏能有越来越多的玩家参与进来，而不是像现在这样，对战前插入广告会直接毁灭一个尚在摸索期的新人玩下去的欲望！

### 5/5 — It’s super fun but frustrating!

*2024-01-03*

It’s making super mad that when the enemies attack they ATK goes to this 1200 to this 9989 but SUPER FUN THO

### 5/5 — 非常喜欢 wonderful！

*2023-12-19*

ios系统里可以找到的最有战国味道的手机游戏！
不要被看上去简陋的画面吓到，其实这个游戏内涵丰富，尤其是武将都是历史上的真实写照，整个游戏玩起来就像一幅动态的日本大和绘！在敌阵第一次见到井伊直政时感觉非常惊艳甚至超过了真田幸村。更难得的是这个游戏支持中文，而且翻译的非常地道，希望每个苦于手机上不能玩到信长之野望的朋友们都来试试，度过了摸索期你会发现这个游戏非常好玩，既不占用大量时间还可以细水长流慢慢收集武将和各种家宝，简直完美。这么好的游戏评分这么低应该还是英语国家的玩家不能体会其中的妙趣吧。

### 4/5 — 👍🏻

*2023-06-29, version 3.2.2*

Don’t know what I’m doing or where to find tips since I think their probably in another language, it’s pretty fun tho, took me time to start winning battles

### 4/5 — Starting

*2023-04-11, version 3.2.2*

I have played this game over a year now and I wish we could start pick a spot to be at instead of being put in the middle and it should have where I can put as many warriors in my formation and be able to chose a lord this game is good but it is not good in terms of where you began like my nation is weak to all the other nation I could just be wiped out off the face of the map but never the mater your game is good but maybe consider what I said

### 5/5 — I like it

*2023-02-09, version 3.2.2*

It’s not good but not bad as you start playing it the game really distracts you on the battlefield I like how you can use some strategy I wish I could use more hopefully they make a bigger and better version of this on ps4 I’d buy it for sure

### 1/5 — I want samurai wars back

*2021-12-30*

App Store can you please find samurai wars I really miss it and I want you to find it for me please and I want it back on the App Store from liao.
