Building a legend, brick by brick.

Chinese Frontiers will give players the opportunity to face the challenges of building the Great Wall of China. Today, the developers at SolidGames announced the release date and unveiled a new trailer. The game is coming to Steam on June 19th.

In Chinese Frontiers, players begin their journey as novice builders, gaining knowledge and skills step by step, task by task.

As the leader of the village, the player will need to take care of its internal economy, manage supply chains, and ensure the well-being of its inhabitants. This involves a variety of activities, such as farming, cooking, fishing, working in various workshops, and constructing new buildings. Helpful villagers will assist with these tasks, and the player can assign them to specific duties. The time saved will certainly be well-spent exploring the surrounding area and admiring the stunning Asian landscapes.

In the epic task of building one of the most famous structures in the world, players will be assisted by mentor Jun and his granddaughter Mei. They will not only introduce the fascinating world of Chinese legends and myths, but will also guide players in the arts of various crafts. As the bonds of friendship grow stronger, they will reveal secrets from the past, believing that this will bring a better future to the people.

The foundations of Chinese Frontiers are built on the following features:

🧱 Step by step – in Chinese Frontiers, players will have the opportunity to build monumental structures, carefully completing each phase of construction, from the foundations to the final touches. This gives a true sense of involvement in creating something grand.
