The Scroll of Taiwu is a role-playing game known for its popularity as a Chinese indie game. It was released in early access on September 20, 2018, by Kunming-based[2] studio ConchShip Games with no English translation. The game is based on Wuxia and Chinese mythology.[3] The game was a bestseller on the distribution platform Steam and a bellwether for a burgeoning Chinese indie game scene.[4] In September 2018, the game ranked second in Steam's global sales charts, ahead of many popular Western games. It was seen as a harbinger of China's potential influence on the platform, which had not been formally opened to the region.[3] In April 2022, ConchShip Games announced that "The Scroll of Taiwu" official version would be released on September 21, 2022.[5] In September 2022, ConchShip Studio announced on social media that a new version of "The Scroll of Taiwu" would be updated on September 21 at 23:00.[6]
