About the Game

The Tang Dynasty—an era where prosperity and shadow, poetry and crime coexisted.

You are a scholar with dreams of passing the imperial examinations, but on your journey to officialdom, you unexpectedly become embroiled in a series of perplexing murder cases.

Beneath the seemingly peaceful Jiangnan inn, bustling main street, deserted temple, and ancient bridge, undercurrents surge, and truth and lies intertwine.

Can you, with composure and wisdom, unravel the layers of mystery and confront the secrets hidden between dreams and reality?

On your journey of investigation, you will encounter one bizarre and mysterious case after another.

To deduce the true culprit and motive, you will need to: Freely travel to various locations, collecting clues and evidence, following the development of the plot; Delve into crime scenes, observing subtle clues and analyzing contradictory testimonies; Through questioning and logical deduction, unravel the mystery and reconstruct the truth of the case.

Each murder case hides a secret, revealing the greed, desire, and tragedy within human nature.

While seemingly independent cases, they are connected by a hidden thread.

When all the clues converge, you will embark on a journey concerning fate and justice.

You will confront your own inner evil, making a final choice in the abyss where good and evil intertwine.


Following the hand-drawn scroll depicting the Tang Dynasty, we will traverse the grandeur of the era: Spending the night at a post station outside Chang'an, listening to the rain pattering on banana leaves; Traveling to the misty waters of Yangzhou, exploring the dreams of literati; traversing the Western Regions trade routes, uncovering a mysterious case in a foreign land; Entering the depths of the imperial palace, dreaming of the magnificent Chang Le Palace…

Every scene is a beautiful painting;

Every deduction is a step towards the truth. "A Night Dream in the Tang Palace" invites you to embark on this suspenseful dream journey across the glorious Tang Dynasty.
