About This Game

Eaves, a calming and culturally rich city-building game with light strategy elements, invites players into a world where ancient Chinese aesthetics meet creative freedom. Blending soothing gameplay with deep cultural references, Eaves offers players the chance to explore, build, and immerse themselves in a living Chinese painting.

At its core, Eaves is a puzzle-based building simulation that encourages creativity through modular construction. Players combine various architectural pieces—such as mountains, rivers, bridges, and pavilions—to gradually form a vivid and evolving landscape. As new items and structures become available, the world grows increasingly vibrant, allowing for endless possibilities in design and storytelling.

Step Into a Living Scroll Painting

Set against a uniquely stylized artistic backdrop inspired by traditional Chinese ink painting, Eaves brings to life the essence of Chinese culture. From the white-walled homes of Jiangnan to the gracefully curved eaves of ancient temples, every structure is carefully designed based on in-depth research and artistic reinterpretation of traditional architecture.

As players progress through the game, they unlock a variety of historical characters and decorative elements—from wandering scholars and street vendors to master gardeners—each adding depth and personality to the world. These figures not only enrich gameplay but also breathe life and cultural authenticity into the environment, offering glimpses into daily life throughout different periods of Chinese history.

Building as a Cultural Journey

In Eaves , building is more than just placing structures—it's about connecting with history and tradition. Through intuitive drag-and-drop mechanics, players can freely assemble their own idealized landscapes, limited only by imagination. Whether crafting serene gardens or bustling marketplaces, players have the tools to create their own version of a Qingming Festival Along the River -style masterpiece.

The game also introduces a unique "Memory Resonance" system, which guides players toward a deeper understanding of Chinese heritage. As players construct key buildings or complete certain layouts, they unlock historically inspired characters and landmarks, each carrying stories and cultural imprints from the past.
