【Basic Introduction】
I believe everyone who has watched "A Chinese Odyssey" would have been deeply impressed by this movie. The legendary Tang Monk and his disciples, who endured countless hardships to fetch the scriptures from the Western Heavens and eventually attained enlightenment, are portrayed in the film as masters of crosstalk and romance. Fortunately, the true deities are not angered, and the truly divine only have the qualification to observe the myriad phenomena of the human world. The compassionate Bodhisattva Guanyin would certainly not make things difficult for the masses who seldom smile. "A Chinese Odyssey" was filmed by Hong Kongers, and in Cantonese, "Da Hua" means lies or exaggerations. Therefore, the screenwriters, with a serious and responsible attitude, first declared that everything they say is a lie, hence absolving themselves from any consequences that arise from these lies. To learn from this predecessor, the game "The Door of Ghosts and Gods" also makes a prior declaration: although the names of the Eight Immortals appear in the game, they absolutely do not represent the true Eight Immortals. The story tells of eight people who coincidentally share the names of the Eight Immortals, and their various strange encounters while seeking their true selves. Children who have never heard of the Eight Immortals should take note... there must be some grand conspiracy, otherwise why would people's names be taken from divine names? - Would anyone claiming to be Moses be able to split the Red Sea? Even if someone led everyone in building a dam to separate the Red Sea, that person still wouldn't be Moses.
The first episode of "The Door of Ghosts and Gods" takes place in a fantasy fairy tale world of ancient China. Unlike works with ancient martial arts themes, the style of this game is tailored to fit its medium, using a purely Japanese-style fantasy RPG format to tell a romantic love story set in ancient China, giving everyone a refreshing feeling. The game system is the familiar and easy-to-handle Japanese RPG system. Moreover, players can not only find and buy food, but also use cooking utensils in the game to mix their own ingredients and cook delicious meals for themselves and their companions. They're very tasty, so please taste them yourself when the time comes.
The two famous, dazzling names that appear in the first episode are Tieguai Li and Lü Dongbin. Why aren't they referred to as characters? Because they regretfully borrowed the names of the immortals, and are not the respected great figures from legend. "Since they are not immortals, it's inevitable that they have distractions," not only distractions, but also all seven emotions and six desires. For the sake of the ones they love, both Tieguai Li and Lü Dongbin fall into the traps laid by the dream demon, going through twists and turns before finally reuniting with their beloveds. The difference is that Tieguai Li has only one beauty, while Lü Dongbin has countless beauties - naturally including those from hundreds of reincarnations ago. What kind of destined strange encounters will await them? Or perhaps unavoidable calamities? Everything will be decided by the weapons in their hands.
