About
Immersed in the turbulent "Tohoku" underworld epicof the 1980s, "Northeast Past" is a real-life interactivevideo game that combines hardcore underworldsurvival rules with multi-branching narratives, takingyou to experience the underworld and get involved inthe bloody fate of gang disputes.
Directed by Kong Ergou, the original author of the novel, the game stays true to the core of the beloved storyline. Di Huangjin, a renowned interactive movie game producer, oversees the entire gameplay experience from concept to release. The original star cast of the IP also returns for this adaptation. While preserving the IP’s iconic essence, we’ve crafted a fresh take on the story, delivering cinematic live-action interactive gameplay that captures the unadulterated spirit of the Northeast underworld and a one-of-a-kind brand of Eastern heroic fervor.

The original novel has sold over 40 million copies, and its live-action adaptation is a Douban classic with an 8.8/10 rating! This time, you’re no longer a bystander to the legend—you forge and write your own 20 years of fiery heroism. Step into the Northeast underworld of the 80s and 90s, and make pivotal choices that could either ignite a blazing legacy or lead to total ruin, amid the fire and frost of a transformative era.

Play as Zhao Hongbing and navigate the twists and turns of a life of chaos and courage, making choices that split the story into distinct paths at every turn. Stand by your brothers through thick and thin without hesitation, or swallow your pride and endure humiliation just to survive—every decision unlocks a radically different story branch. Will you become a legendary underworld lord? Or will your fiery life burn out too soon, a tragic ballad cut short? Unlock a host of epic, high-stakes endings as you carve your path.

With top-tier artistic craftsmanship, the game recreates an era where passion and courage ran through every street. From rusted old factory districts to neon-drenched nightclubs, every scene is steeped in the raw, unfiltered energy of 1980s and 90s Northeast China.

Every encounter with the classic characters from the live-action series is a collision of fates, forging unbreakable bonds of brotherhood and heroism. The game’s Archive System delves deep into every character’s backstory, breathing life and humanity into them. Uncover hidden character arcs rife with loyalty, betrayal, and unspoken friendship—each one a new layer to the underworld’s rich tapestry.

The gates to the Northeast underworld are open… “It’s time to settle the score.”
Mate, wishlist the game now and embark on an unforgettable journey of Eastern heroic fervor!

要是请许君聪过来还原一下买瓜子名场面,销量肯定爆炸
喜欢毛琴好骚想上她
this game is really fun, but I play in chinese so I can't tell whats going on and its frusturating. Also you have to pick specific paths to progress to some chapters and its like the craziest sequences of events and takes so long ;-;
不好玩,而且太短了
谁能想到我给这游戏好评的原因是因为敏感词
没看过原著小说,电视剧当初冲着黄色和名场面去看的,游戏的剧情还可以,这些演员演技确实都比绝大多数影游好,接地气的流氓演的都很像那么回事,要说人物,那最大亮点就是毛琴了,毫不夸张的说所有女角色里就这个漂亮,而这也是游戏最大的问题,官配女主魅力被女配毛琴吊打,虽然毛琴戏份多,但最终结局也不是跟她在一起,虽然过程中肯定发生了关系,这就是最不爽的地方,一个毫无魅力的女主高欢硬是当男主的官配,玩家根本共情不了一点。。。以后记住影游里没有漂亮女角色恋爱戏份,那你剧情起码要吊上天去,不然是绝对卖不好的,国内影游圈就这样。
这游戏剧情短得跟开倍速似的,既然都登陆 Steam 了真没必要大刀阔斧删减内容,影游开局第一印象直接决定玩家好感度,其中最吸引玩家的就是下三路!实在拿捏不好尺度,建议多去跟影游一哥不死鸟总监取取经学学经验哈。
这个游戏的长度和制作人的JJ一样短,非常敷衍,不值这个价格``
steam商店的deck灰标是假的,实测运行良好 演员演技到位。剧情整体不长,不同分支同归衔接的比较合理,值得拿张电影票钱在家看个互动电影。
For an FMV, this one already does a good job, but if you've already watched the 2012 TV series, since they share almost the same OG cast, you'll be disappointed, they condensed a 23-episode TV series into a single game, so of course there are a lot of cuts. Gao Huan, who's the main girl in the TV series, becomes a side character compared to Mao Qin, you barely get any interaction with her to build any kind of special feeling. There's a lot of combat in this game, and it's done really well, with very good camera work. The ending is pretty underwhelming, to be honest, you can't even get a proper romance ending with anyone. You'll feel great on your first playthrough, but it's not that fun to replay, imo. Very bad UI.
