Game mechanics

Ninja Village is a strategy game in which we manage a Ninja village. Our main goal is to train an army of these warriors and then use them to conquer rebellious provinces. War, however, is not cheap, so to be successful we also have to take care of the economic development of the village.

We recruit new settlers and send them to the village to construct buildings, produce food and gather resources and craft various items. We earn mainly by selling goods to travelers visiting our village.

In addition to the settlers, we also have to train the Ninja warriors themselves, transforming them into a regular army. The player can assign them to different units, such as infantry or cavalry and equip them with various weapons, including firearms.

These troops are then put into battles against rebellious warlords. Clashes are mostly automatic and their result depends on what forces we direct to fight. Victories restore the region under the control of the Shogunate and provide additional resources and settlers, allowing us to develop the settlement.
