Qianli: The Vastscape Scroll

Qianli: The Vastscape Scroll is a hex-tile building game where you shape a landscape inspired by traditional Chinese ink and watercolor paintings. Place tiles freely, without terrain restrictions, and combine mountains, lakes, forests and paths to create your own scenes. The game blends creative building with puzzles and roguelite elements, and you can play for a high score or simply build at your own pace.

A living landscape

Tile interactions can change the landscape and reveal features. For example, a path that reaches water forms a dock, while a trail near a famed peak reveals the gates of an ancient temple. Experiment with combinations to discover the different interactions.

The landscape is home to Scenlings, beings inspired by traditional Chinese poems and songs who have gathered energy over centuries. Each has a history, personality and unique abilities, adding strategic depth as you explore their stories. Cats also hide in quiet corners of the landscape for you to spot.
