What Romance of the Three Kingdoms XI is

Romance of the Three Kingdoms XI is a simulator game developed by Koei and released in 2006. It is available on Wii, PlayStation 2 and PC (Microsoft Windows).

The premise, in the publisher's words

Rediscover an ancient civilization with an explosive history in the most stunning edition of Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Set during the end of China’s Han Dynasty and the 2nd and 3rd centuries A.D., RTKXI presents the most visually-captivating evolution in the history of the series. Blurring the line between video games and art, RTKXI features visuals evocative of classical Chinese ink-paintings along with debates and duels rendered in real-time 3D animation. You will need to dig deep within to prove yourself adept at both the military and political arts in order to bring China under one rule.
