Three Kingdoms: Alias

Three Kingdoms: Alias is a turn-based Three Kingdoms strategy game in which officers use aliases. You manage personnel, warfare, governance, diplomacy and espionage, and must investigate officers to discover who they are and what they can do.

Identify your officers

You do not know officers’ real names at first. Their stats and loyalty become visible through investigation, so recruiting and assigning them means judging their potential without all the facts. A recruit you pursue as a genius might be Xiahou Mao; a governor sent to the front line could be Meng Da, while Pang Tong might be managing farms in the rear.

A different start each run

Each run begins in a random city with a random draft of officers. Your available leaders and civil officers vary: Zhang Liao might appear without a single civil officer, or Ma Chao might show up when you are playing Cao Cao. You may start with Chengdu or Jianye as your capital, or find yourself in Luoyang with Cao Cao, Sun Ce and Lü Bu as neighbors.

Strategy and encounters

The game includes diplomacy and espionage alongside personnel management, governance and warfare. Duels are also part of its turn-based strategy play.
