How it feels
A slow, methodical empire-building experience where you guide an ancient Chinese civilization through careful planning, development, and warfare on a detailed map.

What players say
Players appreciate the ambitious ancient China setting and multiple victory paths, but the game is slow and its economy and mechanics are unclear. Performance is not the issue, rather, players struggle to learn systems and face constant AI city spam, and some say development stalled.
