A cozy city-building game inspired by history, combining the charm of real miniatures with the world of computer graphics. Players build small diorama cities set in the 1920s and 1930s, when the Czech city of Zlín, thanks to the vision of entrepreneur Tomáš Baťa, became a symbol of modernity, industry, and architectural progress. Through quests and the wishes of its inhabitants, players create a relaxing and playful experience while discovering historical events and the atmosphere of the city at the time.
Zlin City combines the handcrafted aesthetic of miniatures, model railways, toys, and puppet animation with the latest digital technologies such as Unreal Engine 5, 3D printing, and scanning. The game also includes an encyclopedia introducing modern architecture, important figures, and historical context.
To combine a visually distinctive handcrafted style, architectural inspiration drawn from Functionalism, historical content, and modern technologies into an accessible and relaxing game.
