If you haven’t played Skulls of the Shogun in any form over the past six years, we still can still heartily recommend the single-player campaign as a generous and devilishly fun slice of turn-based strategy action that perfectly suits the Switch, particularly in handheld mode. However, the fact its online multiplayer seems to be a complete bust here certainly knocks a fair amount of the wind out its sails and it's something we've sadly got to penalise the game for. If you’re only in it for the single-player or have a bunch of pals interested in the fantastic local multiplayer action, then this is still a pretty easy recommendation. Anyone else should take note that this particular version arrives on the shores of this afterlife sans a pretty important part of its overall package.
