Blandia

Blandia (ブランディア, Burandia) is a weapons-based versus fighting game developed and released into video arcades by Allumer in 1992.

Along with Strata's Time Killers, Blandia is one of the earliest weapon-based fighting games modeled on the success of Capcom's Street Fighter II, a subgenre later typified by SNK's Samurai Shodown and The Last Blade.

The plot of Blandia takes place five years after Gladiator, set in the "Great Continent of Eurasia".

Unlike most other similar fighting games at the time, Blandia combines the style of Capcom's Street Fighter II with the use of weapons in every character.

[2] Blandia was later ported by Ving to two home computers exclusively in Japan: the FM Towns on September 30, 1994, and the NEC PC-9821 on June 22, 1995.
