The thing that really sets this game apart is its unique atmosphere. Everything in this game, from the menus, the music, the artwork, ''everything'' is made in a distinctly periodic style. The minimalist music accompanies dramatic Ukiyo-e style drawings as you are notified that someone has died or that rebellious peasants are besieging your estate, and so forth.
 
This game is usually mentioned alongside other "Microprose Combo" games such as ''[[Sid MeiersMeier's Pirates!]]'', ''[[Covert Action]]'', or even ''[[Darklands]]'', thanks to its reliance on mini-games woven together into a role-playing/strategy macro-game. Today it is all but forgotten, though it has undoubtedly inspired several tropes in the 90's "Golden Age" of Video Games.
