About This Demo

Officially licensed under Tian Xiuba’s IP, the demo for Tiankeng Chasing Bandits， a live-action interactive narrative game, is now available.

Set in the primeval forests of Laoye Ridge, Northeast China in 1954, a joint Sino-foreign scholarly expedition ventured into the mountains for survey work. Tragically, the team fell into an isolated hidden sinkhole and vanished without a trace. You will step into the role of Captain Zhao, leading a rescue team deep into the mountains to carry out the search-and-rescue mission.

Dangers lurk everywhere within the thick woods, with eerie creatures watching from the shadows. Conflicting agendas and hidden motives divide your team. A sudden landslide sends your group plummeting into the underground sinkhole. The millenia-old underground realm, the truth behind the expedition’s disappearance, and the covert schemes of competing forces gradually come to light.

Demo Experience: Play the opening main storyline, live through the key sequences of mountain search and the fall into the sinkhole, and experience its branching choice system. Every decision alters character relationships and triggers divergent story paths. Get a taste of the narrative charm of “Cross mountain passes, rewrite fate.”

⚠️ This demo contains only partial chapters. The full story and additional branching endings will be unlocked in the full release.
