First 3DS Nobunaga no Yabou, a Koei Sengoku strategy sim. Dense interface and overloaded menus with austere presentation. Deep for genre fans, impenetrable without Japanese.

Unifying Sengoku-era Japan, fief by fief, commits you to long sessions where diplomacy, management and tactical battles intertwine. Every lord and every scenario restarts a campaign rich in decisions, savoured slowly. That strategic depth, Koei's signature, founds a lifespan history-strategy fans gladly cultivate.
