Sword of the Samurai

This great game by Micropose brings RPG, strategy and action into one game. You play the game as a young samurai, get married, have children who will succeed you. You get to go to war against rebels and rivals, which brings in the strategy aspect of the game. You get to duel with Japanese swords, and also go against multiple opponents with sword and bow. The game was great because you get to play different genres in one game. There is a role-playing element. The battles fought require some use of strategy. And the duels and melees bring action. And all the while, you are advancing through the ranks, gaining more troops, progressing towards you eventual goal of becoming the Shogun.
