Abstract

In the context of the rapid development of the global gaming industry, games based on Chinese-style judicial cases are becoming a new window for Western players to understand Chinese culture. This paper systematically explores the characteristics and issues of such games in terms of development foundation, application scenarios, design mechanisms, talent support, and dissemination effects, based on a five-dimensional analytical framework of “feasibility, application, implementation, personnel, and outcomes.” The study finds that these games have advantages in narrative structure, cultural resources, and technical implementation, but still face challenges such as insufficient cultural translation, high barriers to international understanding, and weak localization capabilities. Accordingly, this paper proposes strategies from the perspectives of deepening cultural expression, optimizing product design, adapting international communication, and building an industrial ecosystem, providing a reference for the global development of Chinese ancient crime puzzle-solving games.
