About the Game

A group of little kittens has secretly hidden inside the paintings, waiting for you to discover them!

You will search for the kittens hiding in various places within the painting of *Dream of the Red Chamber*. They might be hiding behind pavilions and towers, among artificial hills and flowers, or perhaps mimicking the amusing poses of the characters in the painting.

The game's scenes are faithfully recreated from the classic silk album paintings by the Qing Dynasty artist Sun Wen. A passionate folk admirer of the epic, Sun Wen dedicated half his life to creating this masterpiece, visually interpreting the main storylines of the timeless literary classic, "A Dream of Red Mansions." It is the perfect visual gateway into this legendary world.
