Final Product: Zhen Huan Simulator
The palace wall is three times higher than an ordinary courtyard — not to keep people out, but to keep the people inside from looking out.
Zhen Huan Simulator is a free, browser-based palace-intrigue RPG set in the Forbidden City of the Yongzheng reign. It is an AI world simulator, not a fixed script: you choose one of four women of the court — Zhen Huan of Suiyu Pavilion pretending to be ill to avoid the emperor’s favour, Hua Fei burning Huanyi incense in Yikun Palace, the Empress weaving her web inside the rules of Jingren Palace, or An Lingrong of the Yanxi side hall, pulling herself up from the dust with perfume and song — and live a different fate from each.
A rules engine resolves checks, dice and combat while a live AI narrator writes every scene and every reply, and the campaign remembers what the court remembers: who was favoured, who was poisoned, who was exiled to the Ganlu Temple, and who came back. History supplies the arc; the outcome is yours.

Game Features
- Four Playable Lives, One Court — play Zhen Huan, Hua Fei, the Empress or An Lingrong. Each has her own six attributes, starting inventory, signature abilities and a different opening scene in the Forbidden City, so the same intrigue is a different game every time.
- Live LLM Storyteller — every scene, every NPC reply and every consequence is written in real time by an LLM as you play. There is no fixed dialogue tree: the court reacts to what you actually do.
- Write Any Action, Not a Menu — type what you want in plain language (open the box Hua Fei sent, or send Liuzhu to track the emperor’s movements) and the rules engine parses your intent, rolls the dice and resolves it while the narrator describes the outcome.
- Fate Tracks & Dice Checks — Favour, Palace Power, Suspicion, Fertility Fortune, Empress Threat, Rival Pressure and Inner Resilience all move with your choices, and risky moves are settled by visible dice checks with modifiers.
- A Campaign That Remembers — campaign summary, recent events, NPC memory and unresolved threads carry across a 35–75 minute run, so grudges and alliances persist; key nodes can branch toward survival, alliance, revenge or quiet self-preservation.
- Play in Any Browser — a single-page web app with local save, export and import, first-person or omniscient camera modes, and optional AI-generated scene art for each turn. No download and no account required.

Production Process Breakdown
The AI receives a one-line seed — "创建一个名字叫做世界模拟器的世界，不要创建任何实体，我之后会自己把东西放进来" (create a world called World Simulator; add nothing yet, I will put things in myself) — and builds the World Simulator stage. The Zhen Huan pack then pours in the Yongzheng court: six characters (Zhen Huan, Hua Fei / Nian Shilan, Empress Ulanara Yixiu, An Lingrong, Guojun Wang and Shen Meizhuang) and six locations (the Selection Gate, Suiyu Pavilion, Yikun Palace, Jingren Palace, Yanxi Palace and the Ganlu Temple), each with identity, circumstance, personality, goal and weakness, plus a fate graph of chapters, milestones and ending rules.
Every role gets its own palace cover and portrait, generated in the world’s Qing gongbi heavy-colour style — vermilion walls, gold-brick floors, sandalwood furniture, gauze screens, diancui kingfisher headdresses and woven-gold brocade — at 1024×768, 4:3. A 16:9 key art composes the gates, the falling snow and the four women of the court for the game cover.
The role covers are run through a BiRefNet background-removal pass to produce clean, transparent PNG sprites — Zhen Huan, Hua Fei, the Empress, An Lingrong, Guojun Wang and Shen Meizhuang — crisp portraits that stay readable on the page and in the game.
The rules engine, the free-text action parser, the dice resolver and the live AI Dungeon Master are assembled into a single-page web app, then published to a shareable link with one click. A live LLM improvises every line of palace dialogue in each character’s voice as you play, and can generate in-game scene art on demand.

"创建一个名字叫做世界模拟器的世界，不要创建任何实体，我之后会自己把东西放进来" — the single sentence that locked the whole stage: an empty World Simulator into which the Zhen Huan court, its people and its geography would later be poured.
"横向构图横图，清宫工笔重彩，雍正后宫全景，红墙黄瓦，甄嬛背影站在宫门前，风雪欲来，点翠头面，织金锦缎，朱红宫墙，无文字，游戏封面" — the role-opening cover for the player who takes Zhen Huan into the palace, the falling snow and the vermilion gates standing in for everything she has not yet learned.
"横向构图横图，清宫工笔重彩，华妃翊坤宫内景，奢华宫殿，点翠凤冠，欢宜香烟雾缭绕，朱红帐幔，紫檀家具，无文字，游戏封面" — Hua Fei’s cover, luxury and drifting incense masking the one truth she does not yet know.
"横向构图横图，清宫工笔重彩，皇后宜修端坐景仁宫，母仪天下，正中龙椅，六宫粉黛环绕，绢纱屏风，金砖地，无文字，游戏封面" — the Empress enthroned at the centre of the six palaces, mother of the realm, the still point of the whole net.
"横向构图横图，清宫工笔重彩，甄嬛半身像，容貌绝世，淡雅宫装，点翠头面，温婉中带着孤傲，宣纸肌理背景，无文字，角色立绘" — the half-length portrait that supplied the cut-out sprite and the face the whole campaign is pinned to.
"Cinematic 16:9 key-art game cover for the Chinese palace-intrigue world simulator 甄嬛传模拟器 (Zhen Huan Simulator). Qing-dynasty Forbidden City, gongbi heavy-colour painting mixed with fine ink wash on aged silk: a young palace lady in an ornate crimson-and-gold court robe and diancui kingfisher headdress stands half-turned before the vermilion palace gates, snow-flecked courtyard and gilded roofs behind her, warm lantern glow against a cold winter dusk; around the walls the faint presence of a proud favourite in crimson, a dignified empress in dark phoenix robes and a timid junior concubine with a sachet. Vermilion walls, gold-brick floors, sandalwood furniture, gauze screens, woven-gold brocade. Oppressive, restrained, sharp court tension; painterly and elegant. No text, no watermark, no logo, no UI."
