Way of the Five is a cartoony turn-based online game developed by NetDragon's seasoned development team over three years. The game's lore is premised on traditional Chinese epics and mythical tales, which NetDragon presents in a refreshingly captivating and humorous manner, integrating popular cartoon-style visuals with oriental culture and mysticism. Within the game, players can create their own pets with different appearances, characteristics, hobbies, skills, as well as slight gestures, motions and verbal expressions. Of note, Mr. Stephen Chow, the renowned movie director and actor, is acting as the "Ambassador of Happiness" for Way of the Five.
Way of the Five is set in mythical ancient China and blends cartoony imagery with an esoteric backdrop. Inquisitive adventurers can explore the glistening frost covered region north of the great wall as well as the misty steppes south of the Yangtze River. Our story happens in this fantastic world, the mysterious orient.
According to legend, Pan Gu created the world by separating the heaven and earth from the chaos. When he died his body and limbs turned into five big mountains, his blood formed the roaring waters and his soul was split asunder, becoming cute and intelligent critters. By inheriting Pan Gu's spirit they gained special abilities; some are born with great strength and others are talented in the use of magic. These critters have been friends of man since remote antiquity and have cooperated together in the face of hardship and natural disasters.
