Its newbie-friendly approach to the strategy genre cancels many of the usual complexities in these kinds of games.
The Flair: B
The irreverent and humorous tone of the game is depicted in its charismatic art style and soundtrack, which uses modernly remixed feudal Japanese themes that fit the game like a glove.
The Feel: D
It's not easy to make such a simplified strategy game that works so well in terms of gameplay, and has enough mechanics to keep introducing throughout the whole campaign. The AI could be better though, as it often makes silly mistakes.
The Fuel: C
The story is a complement to the game, but it's very funny and enjoyable. The scenarios are original and variate and make for a short but exciting campaign.

Conclusions
Skulls of the Shogun is a great game to introduce yourself to the complex strategy genre. Its simplified approach, good gameplay, and funny dialogues will surely captivate and enlist a lot of generals.
