About the Game

Convinced he was Guan Yu, you made him governor. ...It was Lü Bu.

A Three Kingdoms strategy sim where you deduce your officers

Personnel, warfare, governance, diplomacy, espionage, duels...

Everything you expect from a turn-based Three Kingdoms strategy game.

One thing is different — officers use “aliases”.

A Blind Talent Market feat. Mafia

You don’t know your officers’ real names. Stats and loyalty only reveal themselves through investigation. You paid three visits to recruit a genius — it was Xiahou Mao. The governor you posted on the front line? Meng Da, of all people. Pang Tong might be managing farms in the rear. Do you have the eye to see real talent?

A Different World Every Run feat. Roguelike

Each game starts in a random city with a random draft of officers. This run, Zhang Liao showed up — but not a single civil officer in sight. This run, Ma Chao appeared — great, except you’re playing Cao Cao. Maybe next run you’ll land Chengdu or Jianye as your capital. You lucked into Luoyang — but Cao Cao, Sun Ce, and Lü Bu are your neighbors...

...Just start another run.

The real strategy simulation for Three Kingdoms devotees — Three Kingdoms : Alias.
