Dissatisfied with my previous works, I aspired to create an experience that transcends wordplay, deeply resonating with players. Over two years, I meticulously crafted a project embodying unparalleled creativity, captivating gameplay, and professional quality. This labor of love became one of the finest Chinese-language gamebooks online, inspiring a devoted fan base to expand its universe through short stories and videos.
Bitter Root weaves together surrealism and horror, melding hard science fiction with authentic Chinese culture and folklore. Players begin their journey with their own unique entry plots, which they can tailor to their preferences. As they delve deeper, they'll encounter surreal happenings in a traditional Chinese village steeped in folkloric traditions and ultimately face their innermost fears against the backdrop of an imposing cosmic reality.
