It also manages to explain why there is an alternative world, and how every play through, ending, and media for Koihime + Musou is a legitimate part of the story. It’s all very well done, and the game manages to explain it’s admittedly contrived plot in a manner that makes a decent amount of sense. It adds a bit of alternative interpretation to the whole story too, which makes Koihime Musou stand out among other stories based off of the Three Kingdoms era. Koihime + Musou does also tap into some of the darker parts of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms story, such as Xiahou Dun losing an eye or Zhou Yu being left distraught after Sun Ce dies. It uses natural human emotion to make the player feel worried about their in-game future, due to the fact that nobody wants to be forced to hurt their loved ones. Throughout the game, you have a bit of an existence crisis, never being positive that you won’t end up magically teleported back home and away from all your new friends. While the story is nowhere near as dark as it’s source material, especially as it thankfully lacks characters dying, it does add a unique type of conflict. The plot can be pretty griping at times, and I was legitimately entertained by the portions for the story that were focusing on you establishing a connection with your people and attempting to maintain a decent public image while your kingdom grew. You end up becoming the leader to the Shu faction as you try to unite all of China while growing closer to your ladies.It sounds odd on paper, but the delivery is surprisingly well done. You are a random guy who, more or less, gets spontaneously teleported into an altered version of ancient China. That being said, it takes a variety of liberties with the story and creates it’s own unique plot. As previously stated, Koihime Musou is loosely based off of Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
