i don't wanna be pretentious about a game that i "only" put 10 hours into (it's very long) so i will say that i really enjoyed the strategy game sections and really hated how much rape i had to skip through enough to the point where it ruined the entire experience

old review:
If someone could recommend me games with fast-paced, addictive combat like this where my goal ISN'T to rape women, I beg of you. Please. Do so.

mentally on the fence of deciding if this game is overrated or a masterpiece because while it does so many things I absolutely love it also has a lot of really annoying aspects.

i think the game encourages savescumming way too much, theres so much rng involved in battles especially when you want to capture specific generals. also think the game rushes you due to plot reasons and is really opposed to letting you achieve 天下統一 despite it being SENGOKU RANCE. also dungeon battles are BORING. good god.

despite the annoying points i think this style of game is incredible and was absolutely addicted to this game. looking forward to playing the dai series.

Rance is back, and this time he is traveling to the country of Nippon. What for, you might ask? For one reason, of course! To bang every beautiful Japanese girl that he can get his hands on. It's not just Samurai, Ninja and Kunoichi, because his eyes are set on the sister of Oda Nobunaga, Princess Kouhime. Before he even knows it, he finds himself with the task to conquer feudal states in order to unite all of Nippon.

Sengoku is the 7th installment in the Rance franchise. With gameplay that is clearly inspired by it's predecessor (Kichikou Rance) Sengoku may perhaps be one of the greatest titles ever produced by AliceSoft, and that's no easy feat to accomplish, when you look at all the amazing games that they've developed over the years.

As a strategy RPG, it's your job to take over the nation. When you start the game, you'll be presented with a massive world map and it becomes immediately apparant just how much freedom Sengoku gives the player. It might all seem overwhelming at first, because it's not afraid to throw a lot of different gameplay mechanics in your face at once. But you know what? To me, this is where the game truly shines. There are so many ways to approach and conquer your enemies, which means that not a single playthrough will feel the same. It's all about planning ahead, managing your troops, maintaining your land and socialising with your soldiers and comrades. The order that you want to do all of this in is completely up to you, and there are plenty of missable events or scenes which means that it is always actively encouraging replayability if you want to see everything. It's also surprisingly challenging and does not mess around.

Of course, with this title partially being a VN, it wouldn't work very well if the characters weren't interesting. Thankfully, Rance has a great and memborable cast that i've never gotten bored of even once. They all bounce off of each other very well and Rance being the dumb, horny manchild that he is, is always hillarious whenever he interacts with the others. The lighthearted comedy is great and works very well in balance with the darker aspects of the story, which takes a more serious tone near the end of the game. Neither side overstays it's welcome however, and that always make the text a joy to read.


Before playing this title, the only game in the series that i had prior knowledge with was Rance 01, a remake of the first title. While it was a fun adventure game, it was very simple and straightforward. Enjoyable, but not exactly something that left a big impression.
Sengoku feels like the complete opposite and blew my expecations out of the water. The scale, complexity and worldbuilding is unlike anything i've ever experienced in a VN before. Before i knew it, i was hooked. This was the title that turned me into a fan, showed me what Rance is capable of and i have never looked back since. This game holds a special place in my heart and i will always remember it as one of the best experiences i've ever had.

Sengoku is ambitious, addicting and most importantly: one of the best eroge you will ever play.

Rance games are the funniest things ever, that is, they are if I can cheat my way through the actual gaming elements. I respect Sengoku Rance's ambition as a strategy game, but as for Kichikuou, this type of gameplay just isn't for me. Plot-wise however, the game is exceptional. I didn't think I would get a story as huge and great as VI's anytime soon but damn was it GOOD. There are so many fun characters and interesting stories to discover that one playthrough is far from enough to see everything the game has to offer. And we keep learning more about the world's structure and its hidden authorities. The soundtrack is the strongest in the series so far, mixing traditional Japanese instruments with modern guitar arrangements, enhancing the game's enchanting and addictive atmosphere. Kou and Kenshin my beloved.

One of the greatest games ever created. While the story may be a bit non-linear, it's still able to tell an amazing story that has you hooked the entire way through. Such an amazing cast of characters that will either make you hate, fear, love or worry about them. Each faction is so unique and the gameplay is some of the best in the entire series (let alone strategy games in general). This game is infinitely re-playable, having many routes you can experience after completing the main story. Sengoku Rance was truly the turning point for Rance's character arc. I love seeing his more vulnerable side, and the events that happen in this game set him on a path that I never expected from him. When the credits rolled, I was in tears from how good this game was. Truly an amazing experience.

(Content warning: rape)

Yeah this game is extremely rapey, which is kind of a shame, because the gameplay itself is actually extremely fun. The Rance series is apparently the oldest erotic game series ever, with the first game being released in 1989 for the PC-88. Each game has entirely different gameplay but is usually some brand of rpg. This particular one, the 7th main game in the series, plays like a visual novel stapled on top of a grand strategy game. It's a pretty cool mix, actually.

The focus on characters' personalities and charming dialogue mixed with the cold strategy of war tactics actually reminds me somewhat of Fire Emblem, in that you actually care about the characters you send off into war and want to see them grow stronger and consequently shout at the screen when they die due to your own tactical mistakes. The turn counter is an especially ingenious design in that the less turns you take in completing the game, the more bonus points you get for use in the New Game plus store, which gives you fun features to use in subsequent playthroughs. It's honestly such a fun idea I'm surprised more games don't do something like this as a way to encourage both getting good at the game and replaying it in cool new ways.

The main character Rance, is actually a lot of fun and his brazen, despicable nature actually plays really well in just decimating what would otherwise be a completely serious story moment down into slapstick comedy. It's just kind of a shame the guy's a serial rapist. And it's like, there are plenty of good consensual relationships in the game, like with Kenshin (best girl) or Maria, so clearly the writers are capable of not being so rapey, but I guess they just can't help themselves.

The writing in general's actually pretty dang good, and funny, even. I actually ended up endeared to the characters by the end and wanted more. The worldbuilding's also pretty weird and cool, though they do a good job really only hinting to it when it's not directly relevant to the story, like when the characters mention someone being "over the bridge".

Overall I would recommend the game not just as a porn game, but as a legitimately good visual novel / grand strategy game...as long as you can handle all of the uh, incredibly nonconsensual sex scenes. If you can't, then stay away from Alicesoft games, because that seems to be what they're all about. Maybe play something like Kamidori instead, honestly.

Some of you are probably thinking to yourself, "Wait a minute. I remember cumming to that game years ago." Well, you're right, broski. Sengoku Rance got an official release in the West this year, 13 years after its initial release. In other words, the game is now old enough that Rance himself is okay with fucking it if it was a cute girl.

It's got all the hallmarks of a great game: fun battle system, over a hundred recruitable characters, girls for pretty much every non-degenerate fetish, upwards of 120+ hours of content, great story and writing, and - most importantly - an actual difficulty curve.

Despite its age, it still remains a shining example of a porn game where the game is more fun than the porn.

Oyun dünyasının en şerefsiz en karaktersiz en rezil karakteri kimdir diye sorsalar millet Shepard, big smoke falan der diyecekleri karakterler kötü karakter olacaktır. Kötü karakter bir şerefsizlik yapmalı ki iyi karakter veya oyuncu onu durdurup oyundan zevk alabilsin. Maalesef ki yanılıyorlar. Oyun dünyasının en şerefsiz karakteri Rance serisinin baş kahramanı Rance'dir. O kadar nefret edilisi ve rezil bir karakterdir ki oyunun ana karakteri olsa da oyuncu onun başına bir şey gelmesini ister bu dur ** der. Özellikle bu oyunda çküne sahip çıkamaması yüzünden başınıza gelmeyen kalmaz oyuncu sürekli bu şerefsizin arkasını toplamak zorundadır ama Rance serisinin artısı olan bir yön var bir şey yapmak istiyorsanız yaparsınız yeterince güçlü olursanız karşınıza tanrı da çıksa onunla savaşıp onu yenebilirsiniz.
Sengoku'ya geri dönersek bu oyun aşırı zor ve de dediğim ondan dolayı hileli save ile oynamanızı tapsiye ederim aslında oyun sizden o seviyeye gelecek kadar güçlenmenizi istiyor ama zaten uzun olan oyunu daha da uzun süre oynamanız için bir neden olduğunu düşünmüyorum direk hileli save indirip oyuna girin. Oyunda çeşitli rotalar da var bunlara wt den felan bakabilirsiniz.
Neyse zorluğa geri dönersek bu oyun bi strateji oyunu bildiğiniz ordu kurup çevre ülkelere saldırıp onları ele geçiriyorsun eğer doğru şeyleri doğru süreye kadar yapmazsanız oyunda bir takım tatsız olaylar da olabiliyor o da yetmezmiş gibi Rance de diplomatik krize neden olup başınızı ağrıtabiliyor bildiğiniz bir ülke ve o ülkenin kaynaklarını askeri gücünü en iyi şekilde yönetmenizin gerektiği bir oyun bu üstelik oyunda perma death de var peki nedir bu perma death derseniz sevdiğiniz bir karakter öldürülünce tamamen ölebiliyor o nedenle sürekli save almanız lazım. Ne yazık ki elimle defterle oynadığım bir oyun bu oyun hsceneleri de geçiyordum çünkü sonraki tur düşmanlar bana saldıracak ve onlara karşı bir plan oluşturup karşı saldırıya geçmeliydim yoksa belli bir tur sonra daha kötü şeyler olacaktı. Bu zorluk için hile kullanmaktan çekinmeyin merak etmeyin siz hile kullanınca oyunda size karşı hile yapıyor ne yaparsanız yapın asla sengokudan daha güçlü olamıyorsunuz ama eşit olabilirsiniz bu eşitlik onu yenmek için sizin gücünüz oluyor.
Başta yazdığım en şerefsiz oyun karakterinin Rance olması bu oyunun yaptığı en iyi şeyde kilit öneme sahip çünkü bu oyunda ilk kez Rance değişiyor ve de oyun dünyasının en şerefsiz karakterinden bahsediyoruz bu karakteri değiştirmek gerçekten zor bir şey ama bu oyun bunu başarıyor bunun en büyük nedeni yapımcıların Rance i çok iyi tanıması bu oyun bu serinin 7. oyunu ve seri sadece Rance üzerine ilerliyor. Karakterin bu değişimi o kadar güzel ki ben kötüydüm artık iyiydim şeklinde değil gerçek bir şekilde oluyor.
Rance evreni baya iyidir ama bu evreni bir bütün şeklinde ele almak gerekiyor. Bu oyunda Japonya conseptinden gidilmiş.
Karakter olarak çok güzel karakterler var. Kenshin karakteri özellikle bu oyunla ekleniyor ve çok iyi karakter.
Seriye bence bu oyunla başlamayın 01 veya 6 ile başlayın ve de true endingi almaya ve oyundaki her şeyi yapmaya çalışın.
