In Pop Culture

三国杀 Sānguóshā
Sanguosha (card game)
Card-based party/strategy game created in 2006 by students at the China Communication University (中国传媒大学) and published by 游卡桌游. Players take Three Kingdoms generals (曹操, 刘备, 孙权, 诸葛亮 etc.) in hidden roles — 主公, 忠臣, 反贼, 内奸 — and battle via character-specific skill cards. Mechanically influenced by BANG! but deeply localized around Three Kingdoms lore.
