Warriors Of Fate: Sango Fighter (AKA: ???·????) is a very old but classic and attractive series of fighting games for DOS platform. It was developed by Super Fighter Team/Panda Entertainment from Taiwan and first released in 1993 (Sango Fighter 2 was released in 1995 as a sequel) - all were remade in 2010.
The biggest characteristic of Warriors Of Fate: Sango Fighter is using the Three Kingdoms historical theme (in China) as its story background, as well as the simulation strategy and FTG combat elements. Besides, it came with more than 10 pieces of original BGM with compact rhythm, multiple unique story modes, and gameplay with combination of fighting and strategy.
On the basis of Sango Fighter 1 (SF1 for short), SF2 new added 5 playable characters (thus warriors increased from 12 to 16) and archive (save/load state) functionality. Moreover, it redrew the characters and backgrounds - both its graphics resolution and voice effects have great improvement than SF1. Again, SF2 designed new unique skills for each character with a special focus on time difference, which is more advantageous to the play of a chain of unique skills, so as to greatly improve the game's operability.
Even in the situation with non-ideal computer hardware and equipment, Panda Entertainment could push aside all obstacles and difficulties and finally designed such a smooth and stirring fighting game. As a VS type video games fan, it is really a pity if you miss this classic work.
