Description
Background
Amidst the vibrancy of the Song Dynasty, A Dream of Splendor places players in the shoes of ambitious entrepreneurs entrusted with the revival of a fading street in Bianjing. As the proprietor of a struggling restaurant, the challenge is twofold: astutely manage a 50-tael debt while revitalizing the once-thriving district. Your strategic decisions in resource management, shop construction, and menu refinement will either breathe life back into these forgotten alleys or consign them to history.
To embark on this journey, players follow a straightforward path.
- First, acquire land and/or build shops during the Purchase Phase.
- Next, during the Preparation Phase, optimize your menu by selecting and refining dishes to attract customers.
- As you enter the Serving Phase, focus on welcoming guests, earning income, and guiding them toward the diverse array of shops.
- The first to build eight shops, and accumulate 50 taels of gold will usher in a new era of prosperity, securing their place as the savior of the Song Dynasty's once-forgotten district.
