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.
