The Game is Pirates ' Successor! From MicroProse after Pirates! As a Role-playing game with Elements of action and Strategy games was so successful, a Story was developed in feudal Japan of the Sengoku Period. However, Sid Meier was mainly involved in the Development of the NPC AI and the Combat Elements. The lead Developers were Sid Arnold and Lawrence Schick. One plays a Samurai in the Service of a Daimyō and tries to ascend further in Society by Expanding power and Influence.

Sword of the Samurai The first thing that could jump to the eye of the modern player is the graphics: Actually, being a game by now 27 years ago, the graphic department does not live up to the current games. But This is not important at all. The Strong point of the game is its gameplay, similar in some ways to many roleplay such as Mount & Blade and the like. Here we enter into the life of a samurai who will depart from below by scaling the road slowly towards the shogunate. To conclude, apart from the graphics, the only element on which we could discuss are the commands, which besides being complicated, are not explained by a tutorial.

Game Description: No One can ever reproach me that I do not like retro games, even in those who have never played. And then came across the old strategy "Sword of the Samurai" in the creation of which took part Sid Meier. Honestly tried to delve into the game, tried to play, tried to understand... But it didn't work out. The game has a lot of text in English, the tactical map management is not clear. In the folder with the game there is a 100 page manual... But It is also almost without pictures and basically a solid text. To play you need to delve, translate and again delve. Graphics, control and gameplay are outdated not only visually, but also morally. In general, I did not become a game and I even felt a little ashamed. To Recommend to the players who have not encountered it in due time-I have no right, as I have no right to evaluate the game.
