Chongqing Underground City game experience is inspired by Liu Cixin’s novel The Wandering Earth. The novel tells the story of humanity developing planetary engines to turn the earth into a giant spaceship in order to escape the solar system before the sun’s demise.

Chongqing Underground City is set after humanity’s realization of the long journey ahead fo it. Those who firmly believe in the wandering plan, all perished, sacrificing themselves on the eve of the truth coming to light. To commemorate and remind future generations of the importance of the wandering plan, humanity built the ‘Wandering Earth Museum’ in various underground cities. As the Chinese New Year approaches, the busy people on Chongqing finally put down their work and celebrate the holiday, paying homage to tradition.

The Chongquing Wandering NFT Collection includes both the great relics of the Wandering Earth plan and the everyday characters and objects that exist within the futuristic underground cities.

01a1 Studio, the creators behind this game experience, have designed detailed assets of “The Wandering Earth Space Station”, “Planetary Engine”, “The Ignition Device” and “The Nuclear Battery” which are interspersed throughout the novel. Various characters and facilities, like jetpacks and flying motorcycles are designed to give the player a sense of the technological level and living conditions in the future underground city. Additionally, they have also designed a few assets to best represent the atmosphere of Chongqing city and of the Chinese New Year.

The collection will be live form January 23rd (3PM UTC), on The Sandbox Marketplace.
