Game: Conquer 3 Kingdoms

The first thing you're likely to notice about Conquer 3 Kingdoms is that despite being billed as an RPG, the actual game is more akin to classic arcade beat-em-ups like Double Dragon. Instead of roaming around on an open fantasy landscape, you're restricted to a limited side-scrolling area, and must do battle with hordes of enemies. In fact, it's arguable that LeTang mixes the arcade formula up a bit by throwing in conventional RPG elements like character levels, inventory and skill points. Unfortunately, the game is never able to elevate itself beyond much more than frantically mashing buttons.
