The core gameplay of Xugu is not typical combat but rather a card-building simulation of alchemy using various talismans and seals.
Players have a high degree of strategy during the alchemy process. They can freely combine dozens of herbs based on their grades and elemental attributes to create unique alchemy recipes and refine elixirs with distinct properties. During refinement, players can intervene using a variety of methods such as "talismans, seals, spells, techniques, and rituals." Every choice players make will significantly affect the final pill’s properties, allowing them to fully experience the satisfaction brought by “self-expression” and “self-fulfillment” in the alchemy process.
The game offers more than 100 talismans and dozens of seals for players to build their decks and tackle alchemy challenges.
In normal mode, players face 12 trials of the Divine Generals, and completing the alchemical goals will allow them to pass. After clearing the mode, players can continue in endless mode, extending their alchemical journey.
There’s also the daily "Alchemy King Challenge," where players can enter the leaderboard after completing six trials and compete with global players for the title of Daily Alchemy King.
The game is set in a fictional cultivation world called "Wuruo."
The Wuruo world is one filled with spiritual energy, where everyone can cultivate. It is also a continuously developing cultivation world that is not only ancient but also modern.
Xugu is an anomaly in this world, existing outside the time and space of Wuruo, in an imaginary space. People from different eras can enter Xugu through certain mysterious powers. Likewise, through Xugu, one can enter any time point within this world.
Our game and story unfold in Xugu.
In the game's setting, Xugu is an alchemy sect founded by a cultivator from the near future. Xugu takes medicine as the path to the Dao, understanding the energy of heaven and earth through alchemy, which is called "the Dao of Alchemy."
"Those who cherish medicine have a benevolent heart, and the benevolent love others." In the game, players will use the pills they refine to help everyone who enters Xugu—people who may be wounded by life or troubled by illness.
Every soul in need of redemption will be healed in Xugu, in the hands of the players. Xugu is not a cold, might-makes-right world; we want to create a warm world.
Cultivation has never been about fighting and killing but about human relationships.
