Embark on a casual adventure through the fictitious Tianqi era of Ming Dynasty China. Assist Shaohao, a common bird, in solving intricate puzzles that reveal hidden truths, all while navigating the oppressive hunt for birds by the government.

About this game

Here, your task is to help a bird named Shaohao escape the fate of death, investigate the truth of the world's rampant bird hunting, and save the world. A slightly clichéd story, but a new experience!

Unfamiliar Puzzle

Have you ever seen the puzzle gameplay of the meta element (i.e. breaking the fourth wall)? I dare say that this is the first time you have seen a game played in this way! Of course, if you have seen it before, I admire your wide knowledge!
For example, drag the window to solve puzzles:

Familiar yet Unknown Puzzle

The traditional Chinese culture is integrated into the new puzzle design, and you can feel the charm of traditional Chinese culture while solving the puzzles. Don't worry, there is no Huarong Path here, because I also hate it!

Why did the game close automatically?

Don't worry, this is part of the gameplay. Just reopen it.

Unexpected development

Without playing to the end, you can't imagine how the story will develop like this!
