Xóm Chim is a role-playing board game where each player will become 1 of the 7 'upstanding' citizens in the hamlet to live & prosper in an ever-changing, chaotic society. The game plays on borderline taboo topics with humour and sarcasm. Players will relive their everyday past and present in the game world full of unpredictable surprises, twists and ironic situations. The game designs drawn from Vietnamese propaganda graphics of both old & new, and its contents derived from popular cultures in Vietnam.
The game was produced with limited quantity, handcrafted and personalized for each customer. All packages were handmade with the customers’ name handwritten. The special edition of the game also features 7 character figurines that were 3D designed, 3D printed and mould cast in composite material.
The game gained supports and recognition from tabletop game enthusiasts and communities from all regions of Vietnam and sold all of its copies. The game is now present in all major tabletop cafes of Hanoi & Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon).
