Care and Govern in Celestial Empire!

Begin your journey as a governor of this forgotten province. These people need you to bring them prosperity and peace. Prepare for winter and the harsh weather it will bring. You will have to balance your citizen’s happiness with moody gods. Not everything you do has to be a part of your great production scheme, place bamboo clumps and fountains to make your city more beautiful. Make the Emperor proud of your aesthetic choices.



A few tips before you play yourself :
  • Remember, your canals have to obey gravity, as all objects and beings do,
  • Citizen’s needs are your guidelines to what and where to build,
  • Rice and wood will keep your citizens well-fed and warm,
  • R-r-rotate all buildings with R,
  • Look out for ducks and pandas, they are adorable.



By the Emperor’s Will, the Demo is Out!

As the blue gates of Steam Next Fest open in front of us, we welcome you to this splendid moment in Celestial Empire’s development!

Playtests Begin

Dear community!

A long-awaited moment is finally here! We have opened the playtests to everyone!
We invite you to test, exploit and break our game, so we can know what to fix!
The list of things we’d like you to especially focus on include:
  • Does this game make you feel like you entered an ancient Chinese?
  • Is the game intuitive enough to play without tutorials?
  • Is the game running smoothly?
  • Is the game’s difficulty balanced well?
  • Can you survive the winter without dev-tools?
  • Are you having fun?

If you find any mistakes or ambiguities in the localisation, also let us know! We know that our player base is a group of diverse people from all over the world and we’d like to make the playing in your mother tongues as pleasant as possible! And even though our small team did not manage to prepare all planned localisations on time for the playtests, we will do our best to have as many as possible for the demo.

Any complaint, praise, feedback or ideas for the full game? Let us know in-game! While we are available on our social media and in our Discord, the most preferable way of reaching the devs specifically is the in-game feedback tool, you can access it by pressing ESC, it will bring out a menu, where you can send us a message!



We are very excited to show you the game, but please remember that this is an early version and we are fighting with bugs every single day. We are going to add much more content and exciting features, please be patient with us.

If you have not signed up yet, click the 'GET ACCESS' button on our steam page.
