Key Features Immersive Chinese Learning Learn practical Mandarin Chinese through every conversation, quest, and puzzle. More than 45 hours of combined learning and gameplay. 3 Modes to adapt the difficulty for very beginners, HSK 1, and HSK 2 level learners. Skippable Pinyin Module and Smart Input Support Start with a dedicated pinyin module that teaches pronunciation, and tones step by step. You can play it at your own pace or skip it entirely if you already know pinyin. Choose between different input modes: type Chinese using pinyin input, or select characters directly for precise answers and exercises. Flexible Reading Modes and Pinyin Support Pick between three character learning modes: pinyin only (no hanzi), top 110 hanzi (learn the most common characters while keeping the rest in pinyin), or full hanzi. Enable an option to display pinyin above hanzi. Pinyin shows pronunciation and tones, making it easier to read and learn new words. Practice drawing hanzi directly on your screen to internalize stroke order and improve writing memory.
