The Legend of Lotus Spring

The Legend of Lotus Spring is a video game in the adventure genre developed by Xing Xing Computer Graphics, Inc. and published by Women Wise originally released in 2000. It is currently playable on Mac.

This game brings to life a 19th century Chinese love story between an emperor and his mistress. You play in first person through the eyes of Xian Feng, emperor of the Manshu Qing dynasty, as he recalls memories of his time with his lovely concubine, He Han Qu, whom he affectionately called Lotus Spring.

Explore one of China's most historic and beautiful sites, Yuan Ming Yuan (the Garden of Perfect Brightness), where Lotus Spring spent her life after being banished there by the jealous Empress Dowager CiXi, the emperor's first wife.

Stroll leisurely through the lush Chinese gardens, flower-lined paths and authentically recreated buildings as the bittersweet story unfolds. You'll learn about Chinese culture and traditions as a natural part of the narrative. As objects are examined, collected and used, Feng's memories of his relationship with Lotus Spring will be unlocked one by one.

The game employs still graphic backgrounds with QuickTime technology for motion and video scenes.

It is possible that we have multiple downloads available when different versions exist.
