I’ll post them here and on Twitter every Tuesday and Thursday using the hashtag #KongsTdayTunes.

Third game in a row from 1991. Peak nostalgia, I guess. I really liked this tune because of the odd tone/sound/instrumentation. This carries through the whole game, but I picked this song as an example because of the chill melody. It’s great to hear this semi-drone synth in up-tempo battle scenes.

Track: “Theme of Wei and Wu” (YouTube Link)
Game: Romance of the Three Kingdoms III: Dragon of Destiny (SNES, 1991)
Composer: Minoru Mukaiya
