A free-to-play game created by six university graduates over five months. The Legend of Nishan Shaman is a traditional tale passed down by Northeastern Chinese minority tribes for thousands of years. The tale is about how a female shaman named Nishan saved the soul of a young boy from evil. Players will control Nishan and go on a magical adventure through different realms, defeating evil by beating on her shaman drum. It is a casual story-driven rhythm game, as well as a serious game that aims to pass on the culture of Chinese minority tribes.
