About The Valley: XuGu
In XuGU,the core gameplay is not typical combat but alchemy, a dialogue with oneself—alchemy is akin to refining one's heart.
Players have strong strategic control during the pill-making process. They can freely combine herbs based on their grades and elemental attributes to create unique pill recipes and refine elixirs with distinctive properties.
During the refinement process, players can intervene in various ways, such as using "symbols, talismans, spells, techniques, and rituals." Each choice the player makes 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 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.

Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
The Valley: XuGu is a Chinese "I can't believe it's not a mobile app" CCG/deckbuilder with a "I've watched too much Full Metal Alchemist" theme. As we'll go into the many technical and implementation defects of the game, it's useful to know the gameplay design and card/deckbuilding aspects are much, much worse than the technical stuff. This is clunky and thoroughly unpleasant to try to play. This game has been translated from Chinese into English... badly. If this was done through Google Translate, Google Translate should feel ashamed of itself. Regardless, the language in this game is broken and will put off a lot of gamers. Worse, not every element of the UI is translated, so there's still a bit of guesswork if you want to try to play this. I can save you a lot of time, though, don't! From a technical perspective, the game doesn't meet basic minimum requirements that most PC gamers expect as standard. While there are options to change the resolution for the game, all this does is scale up the simplistic 2D art assets used to make the game, which makes little or no difference to the graphics quality. Without any other substantial graphics tweaks, it's not possible for g…7 found this helpful
