About Bokosuka Wars

Bokosuka Wars is a strategy title where the player controls King Suren, the sole survivor of an invasion. The Basam Empire, led by King Ogreth, has transformed the kingdom's army into inanimate objects.

Victory requires traversing 600 meters to confront Ogreth, a journey complicated by constant enemy assaults. Progress hinges on reviving soldiers, which is achieved by having Suren contact petrified forms like trees and rocks. A recovered force can then liberate imprisoned comrades.

Combat outcomes are automatically determined by unit strength, making prior preparation essential. Engaging without a numerical or experienced advantage risks defeat. The loss of King Suren results in an immediate game over, resetting all progress and making the experience challenging.
