Washing up on the shores of the afterlife, players meet and join forces with vibrant ghost-samurai warriors, magical animal-monks, and mustachioed samurai generals on the way to capture Skulls of the Shogun. With its roots in classic turn-based strategy gaming, Skulls of the Shogun retains that depth while adding a smooth, streamlined interface, realtime physics, and over the top samurai action. Players immerse themselves in battle with fun and unique game play features amidst lush, eerie environments. Also featuring up to 4-player local and networked multi-player and an original score inspired by old samurai films and dub, Skulls of the Shogun offers simple-yet-deep, refined and offbeat game-play.

I used to play this when I was very young. I would invite my neighbor's friends to my house and play with my brother.
I have a lot of memories with this game.
I bought it again and installed it to relive my childhood memories.

10/10 Stars. Great Strategy! Great QOL layout HUD and Graphics! Great Story! I have been thinking of playing this game time and time again for thirteen years already, I don't know how its been so long since I have opened it! I have played this game offline on my laptop because I know there have been over 8.3 hours put in. I just played a half hour now and I am over halfway through the campaign.

Pros:
-Good visuals and even though the terrain can be drained, it does have different
features like different heights and bamboo to hide in (Plus the brightly coloured
armour stands out in a lovely way). The skeletons are lovely, goofy, cartoony,
exaggerated (The pieces stand out on the board).
-Good Samurai Hip Hop (Won't wow you but it's playful and fits) plusa nice gong
noise when a skellie dies and a satisfying crunch when you eat a skull
-A simple set of lovely mechanics that results in a very easy to understand
chess match. It's inspired by Advanced Wars but with a simpler match up matrix
and while sloggy, it isn't AS sloggy. The skull eating is great... the extra move of
a demon is worth it!
-It's in the 1001 Games you need to play before you die!
Maybes:
-The story is a bit functional... it does have gags of OK quality (Akamoto's
yelling helps, his sheer anger) and it's fun enough to keep going
Cons:
-The developer commentary is implemented in a kind of unwieldy way (Not a big
problem)

Played this game when I was younger, don't think I ever finished it. Popped back in my head recently and had to download it. I finished the game over two sessions across a couple of days. Such a shame there's not more to it or no sequal being spoken of. Absolutely goated game with great personality and charm. Pretty straight forward and simple mechanics but with suprising depth of what you can accomplish with a solid strat in mind. You can pretty much beat some of the hardest levels with your captain and 1 other unit if you play your cards right. I love this game. Highly recommended.

este juego me lo regalaron y ahora estoy viviendo como un amigo con una anarquia con mayor poder que mi ejercito es reducido a cenizas, incluyendo el daño y secuelas de la guerra.
ahora no tengo amigos, no vivos.
