As miruki said in
the other thread, it's a strategy game similar to
Nobunaga's Ambition and other games like it, such as the
Romance of the 3 Kingdoms series.
Sengoku refers the period of war in Japanese history before Japan was unified into a single country. It ended with the
Battle of Sekigahara with Tokugawa Ieyasu emerging as the victor.
