Entrancing.

Computer Games Magazine

Adds so much additional meat to the original design that going back to the old game seems unthinkable.

[Review of "Mongol Invasion" expansion only] A crapload of fun! Let's just get to the gist of it here, this is a good expansion pack.

GameSpy

A great expansion pack. It makes Shogun better, adds new units, modes, and campaigns, and yet doesn't disrupt the sweaty-palmed fun of the original.

GameSpot

It's the mark of a good expansion like this that you can't imagine going back to playing without it. And The Mongol Invasion renders the original Shogun, an excellent game in its own right, almost obsolete.

ActionTrip

A well-conceived expansion pack, which offers plenty of new single-player excitement...but the fact remains that I still had troubles positioning my troops exactly how I wanted to.

Gamezilla!

Graphics don't make a game, but when they are outdated enough to cause a distraction, you know it is a time for an upgrade.

Bob J. gave it a 10:
It's amazing.

Erik S. gave it an 8:
Really good, sh..loads of fun.

Eugene G. gave it a 10:
This is a perfect example of what what a grade"a" expansion pack should be like. A huge variety of new units was added, and unlike other expansion packs you actually have a use for them. Ma editor is perfect, very simplistic yet you can do wonders with it. The Mongol Invasion Is a beautiful addition to the original game. Also the A.I. was made more skillfull (as if the original was not smart enough). The only problemn I encountered was the fact that when two armies are going at each other on full scale, the flags soldiers are carrying block most of the view. Other than that hats off to this game.

Kevin R. gave it a 10:
It's super awesome with death and stuff. 10/10 :)
