King of Kings is a strategy game for the Family Computer, released only in Japan. It is actually quite involving, with 22 different types of playable units. There is a campaign mode where you battle against a computer team led by Lucifer across four maps, and there is a multiplayer mode where up to four teams can do battle on eight additional maps. It has quite a bit of detail for an old game, but the length of the battles can become tiring as well.
