FloTrick has released a special demo for its turn-based Three Kingdoms strategy game, 'Blind Three Kingdoms,' as part of Steam Next Fest.

This demo is an expanded version of the previous trial, increasing the playable limit from 36 turns to 50. The 50-turn demo is available exclusively during Steam Next Fest and will revert to the 36-turn version once the event concludes.

With the increased turn count, players can progress beyond the early game and into the phase where faction management becomes more intensive. Players can experience the core gameplay loop—including war, internal affairs, intelligence gathering, and talent management—at a more deliberate pace, while also exploring the newly added imperial system.

'Blind Three Kingdoms' is a strategy game where the true names of generals are hidden. Instead of identifying figures like Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, or Zhuge Liang by name alone, players must deduce their identities and value using clues such as surnames, stats, loyalty, military achievements, faction affiliations, and battle records. In essence, it adds a layer of character deduction to the familiar flow of a strategy game.

The 0.3.0 update introduces several new systems alongside the Steam Next Fest special demo, most notably the ability to enthrone an emperor, issue imperial edicts, rally generals, and reveal true names on the battlefield. These additions—choices surrounding the imperial court, mechanics for gathering specific generals, and the revelation of identities during combat—have broadened the utility of the pseudonym system.

The developer stated, "Since Steam Next Fest is a celebration of demos, we prepared the 50-turn special demo to join in the festivities. We hope players enjoy the experience of deducing talent and managing their factions over a longer strategic arc."

The free demo for 'Blind Three Kingdoms' is available on Steam. The full game is scheduled for release in Steam Early Access on July 14.

The June 2026 edition of Steam Next Fest runs from 10:00 AM on June 15 to 10:00 AM on June 22 (Pacific Time). In Korea Standard Time, this corresponds to 2:00 AM on June 16 through 2:00 AM on June 23.
