Gengkhis Khan 1

The original version of Genghis Kahn released for the eight Nintendo system was an excellent strategy game for it's time. It had two versions of play. One version allowed the individual to take on the role of Temujin, whose goal was to unify Mongolia and then proceed to attempt to conquer the world. A second version of Play allowed the player to attempt to conquer the world playing as one of three historical empires. This second version also allowed for multiple players (up to four).
Players could be from Japan, England, the Byzantine Empire, or Mongolia.

Each nation had different economic product it could produce and then would have to trade with merchants in order to drive their individual empire. The merchants, who were unavailable from time to time, buy any products you had, and then you could buy weapons or other products that they had available. Depending on the weapons you bought your military strength would increase. Naturally the better the weapons you bought the stronger your military became. But better weapons always cost more.
You also had the ability to buy different economic product from the merchants. This feature should not be overlooked when it comes to the strategy of the game. Many times merchants would not want the product you had to sell, so players will need to stock pile other items to make sure they can continue to fund their war machine. To further help each empire, when a player conquers one of the twenty seven different regions of the world in the game, they are able to produce different products.
The game also has many other important features to make the game great. To keep your soldiers fit and ready for combat, you must continually train them. You can gain the support and admiration of your citizens by giving them tax breaks. You have many diplomatic actions you can use, ranging from wreaking havoc in an opposing nation and upsetting its citizens to signing treaties that ensure peace for up to five years, while you build your military might. But on of the best aspects of the game, is the succession of rulers.
Your character/emperor ages and will eventually die if you not conquer the world soon enough. That doesn't end the game however. Your character has children and can pass the throne to a male who is at least 12 years old. If you do not have a male heir the game ends. Female children are also useful in the game as they can be married to your generals to help ensure these generals don't lead rebellions against you. All in all this is one of the BEST GAMES EVER produced for the NES system.
