About Sangokushi Retsuden: Ransei no Eiyuu-tachi

Sangokushi Retsuden is a turn-based strategy game set in Three Kingdoms-era China. The game takes place on one large map representing the whole of China, which features numerous strongholds held by different factions and many strategic and geographic features. The player must give orders to each of their generals, such as to move, attack, or retreat, as well as allocate resources such as money and food as necessary. Individual generals will level up as their experience increases. Battles between generals are presented as side-view action sequences.

Sega Genesis prices, all games & how to spot a fake

A Sega-made Japanese release that is among the cheapest carts in its group.

Sangokushi Retsuden: Ransei no Eiyutachi was developed and published by Sega for the Mega Drive in Japan on 29 April 1991. It came out only in Japan.

Before you buy

It is a Japanese cart, so it has a different shape from a Western one and needs an adapter or two plastic tabs removed from a Western console's slot. Among Japan-only carts it sits near the bottom on price. The cartridge saves to a battery inside it, so check that a save holds; a replaced battery is a normal repair, not a sign of a fake.
