    The price is way high for the low quality of the game.

    Koei is known for making long lived franchises, whether they drop in quality over time, maintain or go up is up to debate, but one thing is a fact; As time passes Koei pushes more and more cellphone/android or tablet quality games on Console and PC.

    These guys want the PC/Console sale numbers and price tag with Android/Flash games quality development and it shows with NA, ROTK and the new Tactics game.

    This game in particular lacks in every area of past NA or ROTK games had good.
    It's not about graphics, but if a game looks like it came from Facebook Flash games, feels like it, plays like it and costs full $50, avoid it at all costs, vote with your wallet, demand better games, not cheap cash grab tactics.    … Expand

    A very deep, complex, and well made game with high quality experiences from the lowest to the highest level of rule in Feudal Japan. It is also a tease, showing you all of this quality without taking the time to actually explain itself. Frustrating camera controls and a total lack of guidance leave a bad taste in the mouth when the game so easily could have avoided both and been truly great.

    Nobunaga's Ambition is a turn-based strategy sim that does it's best to impress. Although it may not be my cup of tea, it will currently come as a welcome entry to fans of the genre.

    I find myself in an odd situation where I felt miserable playing Nobunaga’s Ambition, mostly because it’s just not the kind of game that I enjoy. However, at the same time, I couldn’t help but be impressed at the level of depth and polish in the overall experience. Still, it remains that this game did nothing to make me want to delve deeper into the genre of Grand Strategy.
