Conquer China as a feudal lord

Open-access content Wednesday 4th March 2015 — updated 9.20pm, Thursday 2nd April 2020

Yeo Keng Leong and Christina Ng Zhen Wei launched their first board game, Three Kingdoms Redux, on 20 November. Gamers can experience the role of a feudal lord during the 'Three Kingdoms' period in China, via various game mechanics including bidding, worker placement and variable player power. Three Kingdoms Redux is a three-player game that has gone through a development process of approximately four years and more than 200 sessions of play tests. Details of the designers' four-year journey can be read here.
