As the train pulls out of the bustling station in Harbin, you settle into your compartment. Your goal is simple: document the changing landscape of China, from the frozen northern borders to the humid tea terraces of the south.

: Cryptic messages slipped under your door at every provincial stop. Gameplay Mechanics
