The latest Chinese PC gaming hit is an indie game that spent the last 8 years growing into something you’ve never played before

The Scroll of Taiwu is a Chinese indie game that launched in early access on Steam in 2018 and has recently reached its full version 1.0 after eight years of development. The game focuses on a thoughtful journey through Chinese mythology rather than fast-paced combat, and it combines elements from games like Crusader Kings 2, Kenshi, and Baldur's Gate. It features an expansive open world where players can master martial arts, engage with diverse characters, manage towns, and resolve conflicts. The game has over 5 million words in its script, and while it initially lacked English localization, the recent full release has introduced it, though it is still a work in progress. The game has found a dedicated audience among Chinese players, and its release comes at a time of increasing interest in Chinese-developed games among Western gamers. The developers are working on bug fixes and improving localization post-launch.

The latest Chinese PC gaming hit is an indie game that spent the last 8 years growing into something you’ve never played before

The Scroll of Taiwu is a Chinese indie game that debuted in early access on Steam in 2018 and has recently reached its 1.0 release after eight years of development. It offers an immersive experience rooted in Chinese mythology, contrasting with the fast-paced action of many contemporary games. The game features an expansive open world where players can hone martial arts skills, manage towns, and navigate conflicts. Despite its popularity among Chinese gamers, the lack of English localization has limited its reach, but the recent full release includes ongoing English translation efforts. The game has over 5 million words in its script, making complete translation challenging. The game's publishing advisor, Leye "Yager" Yu, has invested over 1,200 hours into it and believes in its potential to attract a broader audience. The developers are focused on improving localization and addressing bugs post-launch, while Yager plans to promote the game through collaborations and word-of-mouth.
