Tunshi Tiandi Iii (china) (unl) Game

Ever stumbled across a weird, obscure Genesis game that feels like it shouldn’t exist? That’s Tunshi Tiandi III for you—a Chinese-exclusive beat ‘em up with some seriously janky charm. You pick from these oddly balanced characters (one guy’s basically a walking brick wall, another attacks with… calligraphy brushes?) and plow through waves of enemies who barely react to getting hit.
The sprites are chunky, the animations stiff, and the music sounds like someone recorded it through a tin can—but there’s something weirdly hypnotic about it. Half the fun is figuring out which moves actually work, since half your attacks seem to whiff for no reason. And good luck reading the menus unless you know Chinese.
Not gonna lie, it’s more of a curiosity than a hidden gem, but if you’re into bootleg-tier 16-bit oddities, this one’s a trip. Just don’t expect Streets of Rage.
