Hello everyone, this is Zhengjing Game, and I am Zhengjing Junior.

Most domestic games were immediately abandoned and left to grow dusty after they were shut down, and there has been no news since then. Players who want to revisit them can basically only rely on private servers or stand-alone versions. However, there are also studios that are unwilling to let down players. Recently, a game that was shut down for more than a year was revived, and the krypton gold system during Tencent's operation was cut off.


Recently, "Kumi Diary", which has been suspended for about a year and a half, announced that it will be officially revived on August 22! This is a two-dimensional style, idle development game. This time, players don't have to save the world. The gameplay is very Buddhist and daily. Players live under the same roof with Nanase Kurumi, live together, accompany each other, and spend warm daily life.


The inspiration for this game comes from the JK girl emoticon package "Nanase Kurumi", which became popular in China from Japan in 2017. Then Giant Network bought the copyright and developed it into a mobile game, thus the mobile game "Kurumi Diary" with "emoticon package spirit" was born.


Originally, "Walnut Diary" was developed by Giant Network and operated by Tencent. It was launched on April 16, 2021. Because Giant Network was not optimistic about the game, it gave up on it. The game producer Yu Shengkan was unwilling to give up, so he left Giant Network with a group of people, founded the That Flower Studio, and took over the operation of the game.

"Walnut Diary" operated quietly for 2 years and stopped operating on February 15, 2023. At that time, the studio stated that it would revive the game.


Regarding this revival, the producer said that after being freed from the control of capital, the revenue pressure will not be so great, so the previous krypton gold gameplay such as card star upgrades, value development, map advancement, farming and harvesting vegetables have been cut off, and the game's profit mainly comes from the sale of clothing appearance.

The producer said that in the future they can focus on producing more plot and interactive content. In short, they will try their best to make Walnut's healing and companionship more pure.


Many netizens expressed their anticipation for the revival of "Hu Tao Diary" and welcomed it home. Some netizens also lamented that since the time they first met Hu Tao, she has been healing me every day. I like reading Hu Tao's diary, but it was later removed from the shelves. I was very sad. Now it is coming back, but my account is gone. I look forward to its return.

However, some pessimistic netizens said that without the original data, they were afraid that they might be waiting for the second server shutdown.


Little brother Kailugong: The employees of Naduohua are all old game developers from Giant Interactive. They may have lost their appetite for pay-to-win games in the early years, so they wanted to make such a pure game and spent years tinkering with this game. This is the only game currently online in the studio.

A surprising question: What do you think about the prospects of the revival of "Walnut Diary"?
