“炼丹一时爽,一直炼丹一直爽,本作是一款有着赛博科技与卡牌构筑的类肉鸽游戏。可供选择的角色有两个,男女角色能力不同,每个炉子也都有不同的额外效果。主要玩法设计以炼丹为主体,成长为次要。成丹的主要玩法就是把各种不同属性的灵药进行搭配,搭配的方式在左下角有大衍定式,按照特定的类别搭配可以达到事半功倍的效果,有着五行的设定,达成炼丹的要求后可以进行下一关的解锁。总的来说,适合休闲的时候玩一下。”

About This Game

In XuGU,the core gameplay is not typical combat but alchemy, a dialogue with oneself—alchemy is akin to refining one's heart.

Players have strong strategic control during the pill-making process. They can freely combine herbs based on their grades and elemental attributes to create unique pill recipes and refine elixirs with distinctive properties.

During the refinement process, players can intervene in various ways, such as using "symbols, talismans, spells, techniques, and rituals." Each choice the player makes will significantly affect the final pill's properties, allowing them to fully experience the satisfaction brought by "self-expression" and "self-fulfillment" in the alchemy process.

The game is set in a fictional cultivation world called "Wuruo."

The Wuruo world is one filled with spiritual energy, where everyone can cultivate. It is also a continuously developing cultivation world that is not only ancient but also modern.

Xugu is an anomaly in this world, existing outside the time and space of Wuruo, in an imaginary space. People from different eras can enter Xugu through certain mysterious powers. Likewise, through Xugu, one can enter any time point within this world.

Our game and story unfold in Xugu.

In the game's setting, Xugu is an alchemy sect founded by a cultivator from the near future. Xugu takes medicine as the path to the Dao, understanding the energy of heaven and earth through alchemy, which is called "the Dao of Alchemy."

"Those who cherish medicine have a benevolent heart, and the benevolent love others." In the game, players will use the pills they refine to help everyone who enters Xugu—people who may be wounded by life or troubled by illness.

Every soul in need of redemption will be healed in Xugu, in the hands of the players. Xugu is not a cold, might-makes-right world; we want to create a warm world.

Cultivation has never been about fighting and killing but about human relationships.
