James Clavell's Shogun for the Apple II

[Contains some Japanese words ;)]


Came also out for:

Amiga
DOS
Macintosh


Game description:

In this Infocom interactive adaptation of James Clavell's Shogun novel, you play John Blackthorne, the first Englishman to set foot on Japanese soil.


What I think:

A-MA-ZING and well-written text-adventure (then again, it's based of a novel :P) which features quite nice pictures and it is a REALLY long game. (I just show you sections 1-3 out of the 18(!) sections)

Well, the game is not without its problems though.

The first one is that there are grammar errors (well, I think there are at least some) and the 2nd one is that the loading times raise, the further you come in the game.

Argh, you fooled me with that, too. XD

Hum...I don't know what kind of books you read, but I think I have a nice list.

@Highretrogamelord89 Lol, that's what I sometimes tell people jokingly, but I do XD

Granted, I don't read many (unless you count game magazines), but there are some that grab my interests. I haven't read a good book in years though :/

Wait...what? I thought you don't read books? o_O

Awesome! I didn't know they made a game out of this; I have the novel and it's a great read!
