ABOUT ZLIN CITY: ARCH MODERNA

Zlín City: Arch Moderna is a cozy, historically inspired city-builder. The game’s most distinctive feature is its stunning visual style, which combines the charm of manually handcrafted, real miniatures that are later printed in 3D, painted, scanned, and implemented in the game, thanks to the use of photogrammetry and the power of Unreal Engine 5. While creating it, developers were heavily inspired by the unique functionalist architecture and the historical events of their hometown, Zlín.

In the game, players will get the chance to build small diorama cities set in the magical 1930–1940 period. Guided by ideas, requests, and quests from citizens, they’ll be able to enjoy a relaxing and playful experience of growing and interacting with their own miniature world. All while exploring historical events and listening to professional voice-overs recorded by Zlín actors. Let’s not forget the fantastic period-inspired score performed by the local orchestra, which captures the charm and atmosphere of the era.

ZLIN CITY: ARCH MODERNA – MAIN FEATURES

Handmade – at a time when most graphics are computer-generated, the in-game Zlín City remains beautifully imperfect and distinctively human. The beauty of miniatures and train models, kids’ toys, or puppet animations we all know and love, comes to life in this unique game.
A stunning visual style – it took the game’s creator, Pavel, several years of patiently waiting before technology allowed him to fulfill his vision. Now, with Unreal Engine 5, 3D printing, and scanning, he’s finally able to combine the old and the new to create something truly unique.
The art of functionalist architecture – thanks to the entrepreneur Tomáš Baťa and his company, Zlín became a progressive city built on modern ideas and a vision of unified architecture in the interwar period. People who came to Zlín were impressed by the high-rise buildings and the work of functionalist architects. Now you too can become an architect and build a modern city in the gardens according to functionalist principles.
Educational value - the game encyclopedia tells the story of great ideas, modern architecture, and historical figures. While playing, listen to the sound recordings made by the actors from Zlín while playing.
Filled with historic events – Zlín City: Arch Moderna brings a new perspective and explores the fate of ordinary people in extraordinary times. A poor boy from the village becomes a master, and a young couple gets a family house.
Original soundtrack – a fantastic period-inspired score performed by the local orchestra, capturing the charm and atmosphere of the 1930s–1940s era.

Zlín City: Arch Moderna is being developed for PC by the Czech Polyperfect studio.

You can follow the game on the official website, Steam, X, Instagram, and Discord.
