🌿 Overview Nestled within the Imperial City of Huế, Kien Trung Palace once stood as one of the grandest landmarks of the Nguyễn Dynasty. Its architecture was uniquely adorned with Khảm s nh sứ, a traditional Vietnamese mosaic art made from broken ceramic and porcelain shards, handcrafted by artisans to decorate the palace s exteriors with shimmering patterns. Destroyed in 1947, it lay in ruins until its real-life restoration began in 2019. Restoration: Kien Trung Palace invites players to relive that journey — to rebuild, innovate, and preserve this cultural treasure. 🧱 Gameplay Across three years of construction, players act as restoration experts, balancing planning, craftsmanship, and influence.
