It is a great game because of the involving story. That is the one aspect that it does better than its competitors, and in that respect, it more than makes up for its other misgivings.
The game has all of the trappings of a long, enjoyable experience. [Dec 2003, p.148]
It can be a challenging game, but that challenge mostly comes from having to slug it out through many battles against increasingly strong foes, rather than from having to make complex tactical decisions during those battles.
It's just a run of the mill strategy game in a fantasy setting; even the collection element of Genma stones to create new weapons isn't all that special.
The gameplay is extremely budgeted on strategy, and presents no innovative elements to the genre.
With the lack of any counterattacks (excluding the Issin command), the game plays something like an RPG set on a SRPG map. There is little strategy involved in clearing a stage, as you can attack with abandon and the areas themselves are far from interesting.
Onimusha Tactics wouldn't be that bad if there weren't so many strategy games already available to the GBA. But there are. And compared to the rest of the flock, Onimusha sucks.
