Hero. Liberator. Genius. Adulterer. War criminal. Common lunatic. Those are just a few of the words historians have bestowed on the man that almost conquered the world, the man the world knows as Napoleon. Whether you view him
as one of history's greatest leaders or as a demented tyrant, few people in the annals of history fascinate the way Napoleon Bonaparte does.
In Napoleon Senki, you get to take control of Napoleon and his armies, reliving his most famous battles in a primitive but surprisingly well-executed strategy
game. Also translated as "Battles of Napoleon" or "Napoleonic Wars," Napoleon Senki suffers some from being released on the NES. However, it's actually
pretty fun, if a bit difficult. Graphics are OK by NES standards, and the pixel art in the opening sequence is pretty detailed by 1988 standards. While sound effects are kind of limited, the music is great - I never fail to get a kick out of hearing the French national anthem in chiptune form on the title screen.
Other songs in the game consistently fit with the feel of the game. The actual gameplay takes a little while to get the hang of, especially since the text is
mostly in Japanese. However, once you know what you're doing, I found it to be a fun (and sometimes quite challenging) experience.
