Yokoyama Mitsuteru's Romance of the Three Kingdoms is a turn-based strategy game adapted from the manga of the same name by Japanese manga artist Yokoyama Mitsuteru. Released by Angel on June 26, 1992 for the Super Nintendo (Super Famicom), it is set in China's Three Kingdoms period at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, where players take on the role of famous historical rulers to unify the nation.
Two playable scenarios are available:
- **Warlords Divided (starting 189 AD)**: Choose rulers like Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Sun Jian, Dong Zhuo, Liu Bei, or Ma Teng.
- **Three Kingdoms Standoff (starting 219 AD)**: Choose rulers like Cao Cao, Sun Quan, or Liu Bei.
The game system has three core parts:
1. **Domestic Policy**: Manage internal affairs including economic development, governance improvement, and disaster prevention.
2. **Military Strategy**: Focus on military growth such as troop recruitment and defense upgrades.
3. **Marching**: Command armies for invasion or defense, with supply management: 300 soldiers consume 1 unit of grain per half-month, and each general consumes 5 units per half-month.
Leveraging the Super Nintendo's hardware, it features a zoomable strategic map and free marching, boosting immersion and strategic depth.
Based on Yokoyama Mitsuteru's manga, character designs stay true to the original, letting players experience Three Kingdoms history and test their strategic wit.
