>>> TRIVIA
----------
Released in April 1995.
This game is known in Japan as 'Fu'un Mokushiroku - Kakutou Sousei' (translates from Japanese as 'Wind and Cloud Apocalypse - Hand-to-Hand Fighting Genesis'). 'Mokushiroku' is Japanese for the Christian book of Revelation, also known as the Apocalypse. 'Sousei' is Japanese for 'creation of the world', or 'genesis'. 'Sousei' and 'Mokushiroku' are diametrically opposed, just like 'Genesis' and 'Apocalypse' - and used here as a metaphor for the conflict between Syo Hayate and Shishi-Oh (King Lion).
'Fu'un' in the Savage Reign series actually refers to the fighting style of the main character, Syo Hayate.
