After I wrote my last article about Three Kingdom Online, I realized that I have played several games based on this popular novel.  And I wonder which ThreeKingdom game titles that really attract my attention.

In my last article about Fun vs Reality, I concluded that reality is not everything in presenting game features.  The fun factor is what make a game famous.  That’s why eroge, or hentai games, are so successful.  They are not real, but they give what many people wanted, fun.  In fact, they give so much fun for some people that they start to deny reality, and want to marry the digital girls instead of seeking a real one.
