About This Game

Guard the Isolated Haven: Beneath Bayonets

In the winter of 1937, Nanking fell. Amid artillery‑fire and cold bayonets, there are no legendary heroes, only ordinary people struggling to stay alive. Lead your diverse group of survivors, take shelter inside a concealed underground warehouse, sneak through collapsed ruins after dark to gather vital supplies, and seek hope amid severe resource shortages.

Survive Desperation: Every Choice Carries Weight

This top‑down survival‑simulation serves as the core gameplay. Manage your shelter’s stockpiles, craft tools and medicine, and send team‑members out to scavenge for resources. Hunger, injury and lurking hazards linger around every corner. No choice is perfectly right. Will you rescue unfamiliar refugees or hold onto your last rations? Surrender and make compromises, or defend your final shred of dignity? Every call you make will shape the fate of your survivors.

Stories of Common‑Folk: 300,000 Words of Turbulent Wartime

Immersive visual‑novel storytelling runs through the game. Nearly 300,000 words of script bring multiple lifelike survivor characters to life. You may access exclusive character storylines and uncover their past experiences and inner‑world, ranging from captured soldiers and impoverished gentlemen to hard‑scrabble commoners. Their intertwined destinies weave a panoramic portrait of Nanking’s inhabitants in 1937.

Eyewitness Accounts: Looking Back Upon a Painful Past

This work includes authentic historical materials. Oral testimonies and memoirs from real‑life survivors and witnesses, totalling roughly 100,000 words, are hidden throughout the game. You may encounter these firsthand accounts in specific scenes, gaining a deeper understanding of what truly happened in the hell‑like Nanking of 1937. By recapturing but a fraction of those harrowing years, this game honours and preserves real‑world history.
