An obscure
Street Fighter style game for the
PC. Sango Fighter is a product of the now defunct
Panda Entertainment in
Taiwan. Produced in 1994, Sango Fighter is based on the
Three Kingdoms period in
Ancient China (220-208 A.D.), where three dynasites
warred with each other for the control of the fallen
Han Dynasty. The
Shu kingdom (221-263 A.D.), led by
Liu Bei, ruled Western
China. The
Wei kingdom (220-265 A.D.), led by
Cao Cao, controlled the North, and the
Wu kingdom (222-280 A.D.), led by
Sun Quan, held in the South. Sango Fighter only focused on the Shu-Han and Wei kingdoms.
The main menu screen (in Chinese) consisted of these chioces:
Playable Characters:
Shu-Han fighters: Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Ma Zhao, Huang Zhong
Wei fighters: Cao Cao, Xu Huang, Dian Wei, Xia Hou Yuan, Xia Hou Dun, Xu Zhu

A Shareware version of the game was released in the U.S., but it never took off stateside. Sango Fighter now holds a place in theunderdogs.org as a quality underrated game.
