Zan II Spirits is a strategy war simulation game for the Super Nintendo developed by Wolf Team. Set during Japan's Sengoku period, players assume the role of a daimyo aiming to unify Japan by defeating rival lords. The game emphasizes military tactics over resource management, featuring samurai armies that engage in combat to conquer enemy fortifications and capture crucial territory.
A Super Famicom strategy war sim from Wolf Team. It is set in the Sengoku era of Japanese history.
Zan II: Spirits is the first Super Famicom game in Wolf Team's series of strategy sims set in historical Japan. It was eventually followed up with a sequel, Zan III: Spirits.
As with its thematically-similar contemporaries, like Shingen the Ruler or Nobunaga's Ambition, Zan II puts the player in the geta of a Japanese feudal lord, or daimyo, with designs to wrest control over the rest of Japan from the other daimyos. The game is more focused on warfare than day-to-day resource management, with armies of samurai marching across the map to attack fortresses and pagodas that host enemy flags.
