Fantastic simulation/strategy game. Really addictive building your clan up and making moves, with really nice text 'cutscenes' with great art explaining the history and lore as it happens in realtime during your game. Fun stuff.

I have played every Nobunaga's ambition game released in the U.S. I have enjoyed this game and it was much better than Taishi, which I believe was one of the worst in the series. I actually enjoy the realistic nature of assigning fiefs that the samurai retainers actually manage independently with or without guidance. If the strategy management system could ever be combined with battles similar to those in the total war games then Koei would really be on to something and would probably break into a broader market. However, the battles are still entertaining. I appreciate that fatigue plays a huge role and that it is possible to defeat a larger army with smaller army with the utilization of good tactics (something most of the prior games lacked as the number of soldiers and who the officers were, always triumphed over tactics.)

It's only worth the high price if you haven't already played a game in the series, or you really really really love the series. Does not add much to Sphere of Influence.

I have been playing KOEI Nobunaga for many years with many versions and is getting better and better. If you a person who can sit in for long hours this game suit you.. however koei games are expensive so please do take note.

Phenomenal game. A lot like 70s war board games but with a distinctly Japanese melodramatic flair. A historical fiction set in feudal Japan that has a lot of real history to get into. A great immersion. This entry into the series has a lot of my favorite parts of Sphere of Influence and Taishi with tactical battles reminiscent of R3K13. If you're a Nobunaga noob, this is a great place to start. Its an easier onramp and I feel like its a more fun game than its predecessors or R3K14.
