This game is very unique in that the player, controlling a non-fictional famous Chinese general or soldier, single handedly defeats an army of people along with other generals. The fighting style was simple mash the hit button with a special move but the plain fighting was perfect for the game as simple moves would be needed to kill the many underlings. There were more points to the fighting system as to not make it completely boring but this simplistic fighting style was needed. The narrative was also interesting in that the game was acting out the dynasty wars in China. It was not only interesting with the alliances and betrayals, but also educational for the players. The game was also very repeatable in that it had dozens of possible people to play and each with their own line of stories and battles. The game had no single ending, but an ending for each person. This game is also great for playing with friends and family because the players communicate and split up or work together. It would have been better if the game allowed for more versatility with the armies, because if the player is playing as a Chinese general, they should have an army to command as well, not just fight. The game should have allowed for the player to control the armies, at least to some extent.
