    Overall the game is polished, the map is gorgeous, and the emphasis on goals other than war is a refreshing change from the vast majority of strategy titles out there.

    This is not for everyone, but if you want a feudal Japan political simulator, it provides hours of entertainment.

    Sengoku offers only political intrigue. You set up a trap, fast-forward time until it springs, reap the fruits of our trickery, then rinse and repeat until you win. And if you're not well-versed in the history of Medieval Japan… well, good luck.

    You need to spend a fair amount of time to learn the game. The lack of a tutorial is sad, but the manual is good. If you manage to "survive" the first couple of hours figuring things out, you're in for a treat with great strategic depth. It's one of those Paradox gems which will get even better with time thanks to its player community and lots of patches.… Expand

    If you have never played another Paradox title before you should avoid this game. Go for EU3, Victoria 2 or HoI3. All three of them are cheaper and better. No tutorial and no manual for a game like this is ridiculous. The interface needs some major work. Apart from that the mechanics seem solid but wholly unremarkable and lack true innovation that sets it apart. After a few patches the game could potentially become good enough to be worth its money.… Expand
