Koei Tecmo's latest mobile title, Three Kingdoms Heroes, offers a fresh take on the classic Three Kingdoms setting. This chess and shogi-inspired battler lets players command iconic figures, utilizing unique abilities and strategic maneuvers. However, the game's standout feature is its GARYU AI system.
The Three Kingdoms era, rich in both historical fact and legendary tales, has frequently served as inspiration for interactive entertainment. Koei Tecmo, a veteran in this field, continues its legacy with Three Kingdoms Heroes, delivering familiar artistic style and epic storytelling. Even newcomers to the franchise will find this turn-based strategy game incredibly accessible.
Launching January 25th, Three Kingdoms Heroes features a diverse roster of characters and a wide array of abilities. But the real draw is the innovative GARYU AI, developed by HEROZ, the creators of the champion shogi AI, dlshogi. This AI, known for its dominance in the World Shogi Championships, promises a uniquely challenging and adaptive opponent.
While AI boasts often fall short, GARYU's pedigree suggests a truly formidable opponent. While comparisons to Deep Blue inevitably arise, the prospect of facing an AI capable of outmaneuvering top shogi grandmasters is undeniably compelling, especially given the Three Kingdoms' emphasis on strategic brilliance. The challenging AI alone makes Three Kingdoms Heroes a must-play for strategy game enthusiasts.
