ACMverse
A phygital experience at the Asian Civilisations Museum — visit the museum in person, interact with real exhibits, and unlock digital gameplay experiences inside ACMverse.
The museum itself, rebuilt
down to the facade.
Before a visitor reaches a single exhibit, they arrive at the museum. The Empress Place building was reconstructed from its Palladian frontage and shuttered windows through to the arched entrance, the lamp posts along the forecourt and the Let’s Play! banners hung for the exhibition, so that arriving in ACMverse feels like arriving at the ACM.
Physical meets digital.
A truly phygital experience.
ACMverse is not a standalone virtual world — it's an extension of the real museum. Players visit the Asian Civilisations Museum in person, interact with the actual physical exhibits, and those interactions unlock digital experiences inside ACMverse.
Developed in conjunction with ACM's "Let's Play! The Art and Design of Asian Games" exhibition, ACMverse bridges the physical gallery and the digital world — creating a seamless experience that enriches both.
Let's Play! — Asian Games recreated in 3D.
The ACM's "Let's Play! The Art and Design of Asian Games" exhibition brought iconic Asian games and artefacts to life. ACMverse digitally recreates these exhibits for players to explore.
Museum Lobby
The ACM's iconic lobby faithfully recreated — greet Lucky the Elephant at the information desk and explore the "Let's Play!" exhibition signage throughout the space.
Congkak Board
A digitally recreated Congkak board — the traditional Southeast Asian mancala game — displayed as an interactive exhibit within ACMverse.
Classical Game Artwork
Historic paintings depicting Asian games and leisure — recreated in the virtual gallery space for players to view and explore up close.
Two online games inside ACMverse.
Beyond the phygital museum experience, ACMverse features two online minigames accessible to all players — no museum visit required.
Let's Obby
An obstacle course game set inside the ACMverse world — players navigate through challenges themed around the museum's Asian games exhibition, including mahjong and chess environments.
Let's Race
Inspired by the classic Aeroplane Chess board game — players race along a colourful track suspended high in the sky, with "Let's Play!" branding throughout the course.
