About Shogun Hex
Japan was a country in turmoil at the beginning of the 18th century. It was a time of pageantry and corruption in the Shogun's court in Edo (now Tokyo) and of riotous gaiety in the pleasure quarters of ancient Kyoto, shuttered away from the world of social restraint.
John Allyn, The Forty-Seven Ronin Story
Shogun Hex is a fast game inspired by board games: Reiner Knizia's Samurai and Dirk Henn's Shogun.
The aim of the game is to dominate the economy, military and religion in a feudal Japan. You gain points by influencing cities by placing strategical establishments. You can also use special elements that raise a cities value (nō theatre) or make it worthless (geisha) or even forbid other players to influense a city (peasants revolt).
You can play with AI or play multiplayer on one device. You can quickly learn how to play through tutorial or reading rules.

I start a game, get the island map but... Where are the tiles to play? The big button gets me right back to choosing opponents and layout. Any help?

Just like Samurai. The A.I. Doesn't always make best strategic moves.

I'm a big fan if Reiner Knizia's Samurai so I was really excited to see this on android. Plays smooth and quick but still fills that strategy need. The multiple maps are a great feature. Menus are a little clunky but not a deal breaker by any means. Recommended.

Fun game. Wish I could shrink the board so I could see the whole thing at once, especially on the later levels.

The game has straightforward rules and deep strategy, as you place your units trying to influence cities. A couple of issues: the numbers on the pieces are hard to see, and the rules don't clearly say what the special ability of the Ronin is. I do find myself playing a lot.

It almost always crashes the first time I open it. Only after that it plays smoothly. But otherwise, it's a really simple and good game with endless gameplay.

Doesn't do a very good job explaining the rules, but it's simple enough to figure out. Enough depth to keep it interesting. Not much replay value, but it's fun time waster and you can't beat the price.

Really addictive game. Easy to learn, difficult to master. Helps to know the game going in as the rules/tutorial are poorly written.

Good adaption of the board game. Thanks. You do not appear to get extra levels as promised after writing a review

Perfunctory Android version of Reiner Kinizia's Samurai. The graphics are very poor and don't scale well. Transitioning from level to level results in weird graphical scaling bugs and requires restarting the app. The tutorial is atrocious and the rules have typos. Still, I'm thankful to the developer for building it and letting us play Samurai on Android.
