Some may even entrust players with the key to their destiny, leading to entirely different endings.
Engage in authentic ancient pastimes
Players can enjoy a range of classic Chinese activities—explore lively city streets, relax at bathhouses, watch traditional opera, and more. There are plenty of ways to experience the charm of everyday life.
Shape the world with actions
The City changes in response to player choices. Abandoned wheat fields may flourish again, and rundown streets can become lively neighborhoods, all depending on how players interact with the world.
