十个好人Ten innocent people news & patch notes

The Way of Heaven holds that the absence of goodness is evil itself. No one loved this city, no one was willing to give or sacrifice. Over decades, the City of Waning Waters withered under the unyielding weight of Heaven’s natural order, descending into its current wretched state.

The Way of Righteousness warns never to overlook small evils in pursuit of grand virtue, nor to ignore nearby flaws while chasing distant ideals. The elite class’s reckless, uncompromising pursuit of perfection backfired, poisoning the hearts of its people—hence why no soul holds affection for these green mountains and clear rivers.

Others claim salvation was once within reach, yet certain people possessed lofty ambitions without matching talent. They fixated on trivial techniques while losing sight of core moral principles, mistaking superficial craft for true Dao. Their misrule only dragged the Qian Kingdom deeper into despair.

Gameplay Overview

The game features environmental puzzles, resource management, verbal combat, a health point system, and hidden side quests. Players collect cryptic prophecies, weave them into the narrative, and decode their hidden meanings to track down the virtuous souls.

That said—knowing how to locate the good people is not the same as safely leading them out of the city.

Hidden side quests require players to spot concealed interactable buttons scattered across scenes, guided only by subtle hints in the main plot or prophecies. Lai Jing admits these secrets are intentionally hard to uncover, so each hidden branch rewards players with far more than exclusive story content: rewards range from rescuing one or two additional virtuous souls, to health-restoring consumables, and even pivotal artifacts capable of altering the game’s final endings entirely.

Ten Innocent People reads like an apocalyptic scroll painting: noble, upright souls have perished, lingering only as wandering ghosts. Pragmatic survivors stain their own reputations to blend into corrupt officials and common townsfolk, clinging to futile last-ditch resistance. The masses either flee or hide, pinning all hope on outside salvation; far more have grown accustomed to the abyss, no longer recognizing depravity as evil, merely ordinary daily life.

After sinking countless hours into my own playthrough, I can sum up my verdict on Ten Innocent People in one sentence:

This is a Xuanhuan Wuxia visual novel, where puzzle-solving is seamlessly woven into every thread of its narrative.
