The shogun has fallen from power, plunging the land into chaos as feuding feudal lords scramble to take his place. But the shogun has an ace up his sleeve: you! As the head of a leading ninja clan, it's up to you to rally your followers and help unify Japan!
As their fearless leader, you'll need to train your fellow ninjas in the ways of modern 16th-century warfare--including the use of those newfangled matchlock guns! Assign them to infantry, cavalry, and other units to form an army fit for a shogun!
Of course, war is costly in more ways than one. Between battles, your followers will raise funds by producing food, handicrafts, and other goods to sell to passing travellers.
Arm your ninjas with the best gear, training, and skills and lead them to victory in the struggle for unification! You may even meet some of the era's greatest generals along the way...

Definitely old school gaming, there is a lot of grinding, some luck, and it isn't a mindless easy game. A few times you will probably hit a wall. Have to figure out what makes the city better and what warriors are most important. It could be better, I would like to have the ability to customize people, zoom out of the screen to see better in the landscape position, and a little smarter worker ai so they don't walk all over town to make some goods. Overall, very fun, old school Kiarosoft. It is similar to a mix of Edo Village/Grand Prix. *not impossible like other reviews say, lol*
The best of all

In my time that I have played this game out of all the other ones really drew my attention to the company itself. This game had all of the things that I was looking for in a game very intriguing and fun game and I loved it as soon as I played it through and through. Could it have been better yes it could have but what game now a days couldn’t be better than what it came out as. All I would have to say is a better drawn out battle system a better story but besides that the mechanics and everything else about this game really still draws out the best.
Best so far

I’ve been playing these games for a long time and I love this one the most. The combat feels fine and building your army up and steam rolling is fun as hell! Also managing your village is fun as well though they could add more villagers. This game gives you a good combination of a few of the game mechanics that they are well known for!

I played this game forever as a child, trying to upgrade my army while also upgrading my village, I never did beat the game but I was able to find it again as a teenager and replayed it to see that it truly was as good as I remember I to be. I love this game and the rest of the developer’s ones.
Great Concept, Meager Execution
i cant think of a good nick
The idea of this game is great. However, the way it was executed was not as good as it could be. The village management is ok. Though it could be better, I understand that this game is not primarily a management game. Conquest in the game is pitiful. The other AI warlords don’t ever move their armies, and on the battle map, there is almost no tactical management. You can only control which unit your archers focus on. And even then, they never really hit that target. Troop recruitment is kinda wierd. It’s messured by a number that I have no idea what it correlates to, and the max your army can be is 999. It also confuses me how the other warlords can have an army greater than 999. There isn’t much replayability because its the same senario every single time, the same villagers, the same skills...it gets boring after you learn all the exploits. The game gives you 16 in game years to unite Japan under the Shogun and defeat the end game boss. I have NEVER done this. By this point in the game, I always have at least 7 more warlords to vassalize. Because the game is just really grindy, you can never beat it within the time given. At the end of the 16 years, the game scores you based on your treasury, # of villagers, visitors, etc. Though you can still play to complete the game after 16 years, it doesn’t count toward your score. I stopped caring about it on my third play through. I honestly don’t think that this game is worth the money you have to pay to get it. Its only fun for the first few play throughs, and its impossible to beat the game in the time given.
Amazing

This game is amazing I love it I wish people could make more games like this make another game like this please!!

Several problems: Battles have only three rounds. If you have 100 units left and the enemy has 1 unit left, it is a draw. There is no real in game difference between a draw and a loss. 2. Tactical targeting, unlike what the game suggests, makes no difference in outcomes. Just leave it set to auto. 3. You cannot designate certain workshops to make certain products. This ends up in having workshops creating products for a particular store being far, far away from each other. 4. Grinding for gold is the only way to beat this game, and that gets old very fast. 5. There is not any of the little extras we are used to seeing (exploration parties like dungeon village/epic astro story/Beastie Bay), investing in side projects (mega mall story/hot springs story). No combo system here, no bells and whistles. 6. No real replay value. Once you've beat it, that's it. There aren't alternate starting maps, etc.
Please make one change!

Please oh please take away the turn system in the fights... 3 turns... And it's a draw? Please oh please take this out! It is the worst system ever! I just wanna watch my guys fight.. Let the battle happen! Let the archers shoot, and then let them shoot again every 8 seconds... Don't end it and waste all my time while everyone runs at each other just to be on the archers and then have to wait even longer just to pass the very first fight!!! Please oh please change this!
