Find out what gamers are saying about Total War Battles: SHOGUN:
We are so happy that this amazing game was updated and improved in visuals wish you could zoom in more and maybe have the ability to add guys in a single hex unit as well as online multiplayer but it is an amazing game,already beat it and am just playing our favorite missions and skirmishes.
We love this game so much but we wish you would make a way for you to be the blue faction or the takeda and play has their leader being forced to betray the crane and take part as their leader and fight back against the enemy.
We wish there were more like this One!
Can you please add ninjas to the multiplayer mode.
Great game! Looking for more total war franchise!
Creative Assembly making the best mobile games at the moment!
Best undiscovered app in the store!!! Play it! Buy it!!! Support Sega and Creative Assembly on this one! So much fun and a brilliantly unique real time strategy with lots of options. Incredible graphics, Risk on an octagon Chess board. BTW, this is our first ever review. Please share with friends we need more games like this. We don’t work in video games but we are an author. Our wish is they re-skin this for a pirates, Knights orAmerican Revolution. Baller status game!!!… (just downloaded this on our new iPad; CA, please re-skin for Empire Total War)
We played this game when we were a little kid and we decided to give it a go again. Its such a wonderful strategy game, and we love to play it over and over again. Can we please get a sequel?
When we seen this game we thought it was just going to be a normal strategy game but when we got it it was so gooooooooooooooood!!!!! We recommend you try it.
We very, very rarely review apps but TWB:Shogun is just incredible. The entire storyline is extremely well made and fun(not quite finished yet myself), and the graphics and engine are on a tier of their own for mobile. Sometimes troops fight slightly better or worse, and one of our most memorable moments so far, was an entire army at our doorstep, but the tiny surviving samurai from an earlier attack continued carving through the enemy’s defense and xpeked the general before ours died. While there are minor bugs and unfortunately no multiplayer other than local, such features would only bump it to 6/7 stars from 5. Worth every cent.
Even though we don’t really care about the enhanced visuals (or the doubling of the game’s size…), it is nice knowing that SEGA has updated this one and that it’ll work into the future (at least until it disappears or an OS update breaks it). It is a fantastic strategic lane battling game. Actually, it’s probably our favorite, and one of the deepest available in the AppStore ATM. While we understand loads of people were upset that this wasn’t an ‘actual’ Total War game – we’re very glad that we have this available to us as, as we said, it’s probably one of the deepest lane battling games on mobile right now, 2-3 years after this was released… Not a bad entry if ya ask us. =oP Here’s hoping SEGA keeps up with more of their older mobile titles (I know they can’t keep them all updated and current, but there are a few I’d love to see get updated/fixed), especially their paid titles… Anywho… THANK YOU SEGA…
Great game, one of our favorites but we hate that the flag no longer works. Very fun though still. We would give it 5 stars but flag no longer works.
The game is awesome but every time phone goes to sleep the game crashes and you loose your progress of current mission. Can you please fix it.
We used to play this all the time. We regret updating it. New graphics makes our phone hot so much we can’t hold it in our hand.
We really love the 1998 version of this game. It was a mixture of Risk with live action battle and strategy. It also had a hint of Civilization. However this version is more like most other wargames that are available. Build some buildings. Deploy some troops. Move on. We must say we were pretty disappointed. If you could make the 1998 version available on the App Store that would be amazing!
Would be a good game but there are places you just cant complete without the game crashing first.
We have played this game and paid 5 dollars for it and it force closes a level we play every time we have turned our phone off and restarted the level many times we want our 5 back.
Game was great but couldnt beat a certain mission. Bought 2 9.99 packs of exp and both times we bought it, it kicked us to our home screen on our phone. Then when we go to go back in our exp isnt there!!! Something needs to be done.
During remnants side mission the mission crashed the game 7 times in a row as soon as combat between units begins. This did not happen at any other point… Only here. Cant continue to play the game because of this.
We cant login or change passwords.
Come on! We have bought instant war banner production upgrade with 800 exp but instead of producing immediately, it freezes to zero progressions, not evening progressing to normal rate. We love the game and the strategaty concept of it but it is painful to have an upgrade that give us disadvantage. We hope you all developers fix that bugs ASAP. :(
So far this is a pretty cool game but we purchased 30,000 EXP before starting and after the tutorial (campaign) we were reduced to the starting amount of EXP.
Do you know how much fun this game could be if it went online…. Think about it.
Played this all weekend. Lost hours of time. Hope they come out with more of these for iPad.
Love the game would like to see new games like the pc one on here such as rome 2 and the such but this is in our opinion a truly great game.
Dear SEGA, This game is awesome, but every time our phone goes to sleep, the game crashes, and you loose your progress of both current missions & in-app Purchases. Can you fix these bugs and glitches please? Thanks!
ATTENTION : IF YOU CARE FOR YOUR EYES , DONT BUY YOU CANT STOP PLAYING THIS GAME !!!! And another thing , if you make an online multiplayer , this game would be AWSOME , we mean really awsome , im writing this cuz we do care about this game TO ALL READERS : THIS IS A MUST HAVE !!!
You should add ship battles to the game for more five stars!
It is a rich strategy game, but most of the levels can be accomplished in a few minutes. They require varying mindsets: some require you to flood your enemy with cannon fodder, others give you two troops and ask you to advance across a packed battlefield. The only 2 ways we can think to improve it: Cross-platform cloud saves Online multiplayer. Those ninjas and buildings really mean a lot to us. Thanks!
As far as strategy it’s a very simple game but it can be very challenging and it has a lot of replay value. The best game experience we’ve had on a mobile device.
Love this game. But crashes a lot and makes us mad. Plz fix it. Thank you.
Totally hooked. Great strategy game.
We’re making this review as a request to make a similar game to empire total war. From what we understand this is very different from the pc games which we are a huge fan of. If you could make a game similar to empire total war on the pc for ios we would surely buy it and we’re sure many people will too.
Creative assembly has a track record for massive, beautiful and challenging strategy games – this game (although not as big) is no exception. It’s beautifully rendered, with a fun and addicting strategy premise that is very well-designed. Yes it’s difficult (which is a good thing in our opinion). Buy this game or try the demo, trust us it’s worth it.
Hands down one of our favorite games!
It really tests your strategy! Dont listen to the reviews that give it a bad score. It is different from the computer games but still it is amazing.
We love the TW series and even though this one is a different formula it is an interesting and challenging one. The tile combat and maneuvering adds strategic thinking that must take place or you will lose the battles. The graphics are really good, as are the sound effects and music. The story is well written and voiced, very faithful to the setting, and engaging. It’s not a pay to win game, it has various achievements and challenges, and it has multiplayer as well. It’s a very good but for any strategy fan.
Build, conquer, strategize. Graphics and animations are decent, doesn’t crash on 5s. The only downside is lack of levels after completing campaign.
We love the optimization. We almost thought you guys forgot about the game. Now we love it even more. We’re even impressed at the fixing of the icon. It always bothered us that the old icon was a bit blurry. Also we actually think our game loads, starts up, and resets battles slower now :\ And did you change the scoring system? We noticed all our campaign scores are turned into 1 star instead of 3 star. We’re hoping there will be may be survival maps, a few new missions or campaign in the future. Even if it was an IAP to add a new area, we think that would be fun. Thanks for the update!
Real-time strategy Rock Paper Scissors with excellent art. We were looking for turn-based tactics, but this is totally not. Each game is 5-10 minutes and requires all your attention. But it is perfectly designed and implemented. Lots of fun and a bit of a challenge, so far.
This game is outstanding. This game requires true strategy to be effective in a battle scenario. Simply wonderful!
Great game with great play. We were able to play through the game twice but now we want new levels.
You other people rating it a 1 need to chill out this is the best strategy game at the moment.
Started playing, got frustrated after finding the game to be not simplistic, then returned to it and was addicted for several weeks! The gameplay takes some time to get used to, but then the beauty of it sinks in, and just as you get a hang of it, rules twist. Truly satisfying games are not easy, and even frustrating, so this Total War take is fantastic value for the money!
We have loved the PC Total War series games and was excited to see this on the iPad. We wish that it was more like Autumn Dynesty with the graphics and playability of Total War. We wish the battlefield was more open and your troops had more movement options. We would recommend this game to anyone. Keep it up you guys.
