Rise of the Phoenix (video game)

Rise of the Phoenix (項劉記, Kōryūki) is a multiplatform turn-based historic strategy video game made by Koei for the SNES, NEC PC-9801, and PlayStation console devices.

The game is set in ancient China during the Chu-Han Contention between Liu Bang and Xiang Yu in the 3rd century BC.

Although the story is set during a five-year span, the player is not penalized if they don't finish the game in less than five years.

Reviewing the SNES version, Electronic Gaming Monthly called it an "excellent" strategic war simulation.

General Liu Bang is preparing his strategy to resolve the siege over an ancient Chinese city.
