十四亿分之一

Out of 1.4 billion people, who will you be?
One in 1.4 Billion drops you into a random year between 1980 and 2008, weighted by how many babies were actually born each year. Which province, which city, which ethnic group and which family you are born into are all decided by real statistics. You don't get to choose, just as you didn't the first time.

Then you live that one life all the way to the end: school, the high school entrance exam, the gaokao, your first job, leaving home to work or going back; falling in love, negotiating the bride price, marrying, raising children, paying off a mortgage; caring for aging parents, saying goodbye to them, and one day being said goodbye to. Along the way you live through the years as they really happened: SARS school closures, the Beijing Olympics, the 2012 "end of the world", a stock market rollercoaster, online classes and face masks...
(In the settings you can also choose to be born in the 1980s, 1990s or 2000s, or "right now" in 2026, with the second half of your life in the future.)A scrapbook of one life
Every milestone becomes a document pasted into your scrapbook: a birth certificate, an admission letter, a marriage certificate, a deed, a retirement card... and finally an obituary. When the scrapbook is sealed, you see the whole of that life.
All documents in the game are original, simulated designs and have no legal validity.Big decisions, small moments
Beyond the big decisions (exams, jobs, bride price, marriage, children, a home), there are sixty everyday moments: finding a 100-yuan note, forging a parent's signature, a scam phone call, an old classmate asking for a loan, a landlord raising the rent, queuing at dawn for a hospital appointment... Some come back years later.

Money can go down as well as up: a down payment borrowed from relatives, a mortgage eating half your salary, tutoring classes, a parent in hospital can all leave you in debt.

Make a wish at age 11 and see whether it comes true by the end.

Dating, blind dates, naming your child: every choice shows you what it changed.
34 provinces and regions, 56 ethnic groups
Births follow real local birth counts, urban-rural ratios and ethnic composition: from public housing in Hong Kong to stone houses in Tibet, from vineyards in Xinjiang to arcade streets in Taiwan.

Each of the 56 ethnic groups has its own names, festivals, food, weddings and funerals.

Local dialects, breakfasts, temple fairs and the small, specific moments of a life are woven into your story.
Real statistics, no strategy guide
Your birth year is drawn from official annual birth counts; life expectancy, education, marriage, migration and causes of death are based on China's 7th national census, provincial statistical bulletins, and statistics from Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan.

Your choices can bend the curve a little, but they cannot erase where you started. There is no winning and no judging.

Four other people born in the same second as you will live out their own lives alongside yours.
Scrapbook art, mini theaters and a life flashing before your eyes
Japanese pop scrapbook-style character stickers and scenes, with a landmark city page for each of the 34 provinces and regions. Key moments such as birth, the first day of school, the gaokao results, a wedding, becoming a parent and retirement play a short mini theater. Three music themes accompany the whole life, and at the end you will see a reel of moments that belonged only to this person.Content notice
The game depicts illness, accidents and death as they occur in the statistics, without graphic detail, and provides mental-health hotlines where relevant. Recommended for ages 15+. The game is currently in Simplified Chinese only. Character stickers, scene illustrations, mini-theater videos and background music were generated with AI and then curated and edited by the developers (voices were removed from the videos; dialogue appears as subtitles). Some text was written with AI assistance.
