About the Game

Three Kingdoms Stratagem is part narrative adventure, part turn-based tactical RPG.

Three Kingdoms Stratagem follows the plot of the 14th century historical novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Play as multiple characters, including Liu Bei and Cao Cao, as they negotiate and fight their way through the turbulent years at the end of the Han Dynasty.

In the game, as in the novel, the characters will fight many tactical battles against powerful foes. The game's tactics feature a telegraphing system, in which enemies decide who to attack, and the player's heroes get a chance to disrupt those attacks before they happen.


Liu Bei and Zhang Fei stand in front of a noticeboard. A dialogue box indicates Zhang Fei is saying, "I am Zhang Fei, aka Yide."

Heroes grow stronger and learn new, more powerful attacks as they fight their way through the story.

The game also features a custom battle mode so you can create endless matchups between different sets of Three Kingdoms characters.

Swear an oath in a peach garden, then battle the Yellow Turban Rebels to save the Han dynasty!
