Mudoku: Chinese Woodcraft on display at the Guimet Museum

Dearest Artisans, Greetings! We will release Mudoku: Chinese Woodcraft, a puzzle game globally Nov. 10.  Mudoku: Chinese Woodcraft is a project that we have developed with our hearts and souls for four years. In this game, we would like to explore the possibilities - to pass on and promote traditional culture, to show the wisdom and craftsmanship of traditional mortise and tenon using new media. Let more young people learn about mortise and tenon, let the world understand the wisdom of craftsmen, and feel the beauty of Chinese culture.

Isabella Jiangcheng -- Superpixel This board game has become an unexpected form of expression for young Chinese artists to showcase their attitude toward current affairs. We have previously introduced the trendy but controversial Chinese board game Cheers or Tears, which mocks the so-called drinking culture of China and the negative, sometimes almost laughable, connotations behind it. Recently, a new board game has gained some attention on Chinese social media. The game is called ‘Guide to Becoming a Successful Contemporary Artist’ (成功当代艺术家指南), designed by artist He Jienei and HF Art Space. Just like Cheers or Tears, the game aims to provide an immersive experience for players. It allows the players to step into the world of contemporary art - only to find the dark side behind the glamour. With some hard truths and a dash of self-mockery, Guide to Becoming a Successful Contemporary Artist soon became a topical board game.
