 Xing try to take on Koei with their very own ancient Chinese based strategy game. As far as looks go there are some nice presentation screens as well as a clean graphical interface, so all is good in the looks department. The main problem with this title is that it's just too slow. Loading takes quite some time which to be honest were a joke. This is a Saturn, not a PlayStation. Saying that though, I guess if you're a fan of these types of games long loading times may not bother you so much due to the slow paced nature of these games in the first place.

Another thing that dooms this game is that you need a Saturn memory card in order to save any game data since the saves are far to big to save to the Saturn's internal memory.  This is not such a great idea because we all know how poor the Saturn's cartridge port is.

A nice attempt and for all I know Kouryu Sangoku Engi could be a very good game if I gave it more time but from what Ifve seen I'd have to recommend going with one of the many Koei efforts rather than this.
