About Korea Dynasty (조선메타실록)

The Korea Dynasty


The Joseon Dynasty ruled the Korean Peninsula from the 14th to the 20th century.

Korea was a centralized bureaucratic and Confucian state. And in terms of grographical location, it survived through diplomacy and war with great powers and successfully made outstanding cultures such as Hangeul as well as advanced science and technology.

On the other hand, there was inequality due to the strict status system, and there were so many people who starved even if they worked every day.

This game is an exploration and survival game composed of open world and contents by reconstructing the culture and geography of the Korea Dynasty.

You will begin as the slave of the Joseon Dynasty who learns survival skills, buys or steals identity to escape from a chased life.

Players can be a bandit, merchant, craftsman, bureaucrat or even explorer who search for historical sites in the whole world.
The lands of morning calm will be open! What would you choose?

Welcome to this game!



This game is a survival/life game where you freely roam around a world recreated based on the culture of the Joseon Dynasty.

Here, you can draw a national map based on the actual topography of the Korean Peninsula, and travel anywhere on the Korean Peninsula.
How will your future be written in a world where you have to do whatever you can, be it malicious, good, or intentional action in order to survive?

I'll probably keep coming back to this game for 20-30 minute intervals, since it's a lot to take in. I really enjoy the world they are working to create. I like the simple, pleasant music. I like the attention to detail with the many items, garments, and crafting recipes. The health/stat system seems to work pretty well. I'm excited to get to visit historical sites from actual Korea eventually. I'm revising my rating to now be 7/10, and recommending it more strongly than before. Thanks section: - I really wished for an easier play mode so I could explore the Joseon Korean landscape and culture in this game. Even those a very easy difficulty may not be the developers' preferred choice or vision for the game, I am SO excited that they built in this option!!!! Yay!! Maybe when I'm more familiar with the game I'll adjust the controls harder, but I want to give a special thanks shoutout for the development team adding this feature. - I can tell that the team shipped a lot of translation improvements since the last time I played. I can understand the written menu choices and conversations much more easily now. I also really like that I can still hear the spoken NPC dialog in Korean for…

Game still very much in early access, some things are still not translated/horses will fly into sky. But is only game set in this period of specificially Korea/Joseon time period. It is still being regularly updated, and development team seems to care. Edit in Summer 2026: There have been a lot of updates, still ongoing. It's fun enough experience that I bought copy even for a friend. Would recommend, especially if fan of other Korean media set in this time, ie, Poong, Mr Queen, Bon Appetite.

If you like the Korean culture I would recommend playing. I know the game doesn't look or play like a AAA game but I enjoyed it a lot more then I thought and I played it almost every day when I was on deployments when I would get off shift. If there was a way to donate to help the developers I would help. To the development team. Please never give up on this project. We need more Korean games and so far this is the best.
