The Three Kingdoms: Fate of the Dragon is a video game developed by Overmax Studios for the PC. It is based on the historical background of the Epic Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

Created in 2001 it takes you back to the year 184 AD, to ancient Chinese history in which you can relive the turbulent battles that took place.

As one of the three Warlords of the Kingdoms (Liu Bei of Shu, Cao Cao of Wei and Sun Quan of Wu) you must build your own regime, develop new technologies and create mighty armies to conquer the other Warlords and ultimately take control of the Three Kingdoms and reunify China.

'The Fate of the Dragon' is a real-time strategy game very similar in format to that of the Age of Empires series, developed by Ensemble Studios. In which the user takes on the role of a "spiritual leader" or "God" of one of the Three Kingdoms and controls their faction through the means of pointing and clicking on certain parts of the map to decide what to do.
