Eight Formations: Three Kingdoms

Eight Formations: Three Kingdoms is a Three Kingdoms card-builder roguelike.

The rule skeleton follows Slay the Spire exactly: nothing added, nothing removed, nothing re-wired. The Three Kingdoms layer is concept translation, art direction and content.

Your lord is your class

Four lords, four genuinely different card pools:

· Liu Bei — strength and defence; block, then dismiss the damage

· Cao Cao — poison and discard; draws extra cards at the start of every fight

· Sun Ce — orbs; opens with lightning already channelled

· Zhuge Liang — stances and divination; holds the miracles in hand

Generals are relics; tactics are your cards

· 325 registered cards (305 buildable) across attacks, skills and powers

· 100 generals, one relic each, in five rarity bands

· 28 drinks, 60 events, 44 enemy types, 15 elite generals, 10 bosses

· 18 keywords, 18 bonds, 19 formations

Four acts of escalating trouble

Earn military merit to unlock cards through a 20-level tent, and push the 0–20 difficulty ladder as far as your build allows.

Painted in ink

Heavy ink contours, flat mineral colour blocks, cinnabar and ochre for highlights — one art spec across cards, portraits and battlefields.

One line

One run, one deck, a road of generals.

Language note: the current build's in-game interface and text are Simplified Chinese only. An English interface is planned but not included yet.
