✍️ Learn to Write Chinese

A game that actually teaches you Chinese: trace each character over a faint guide — stroke order is checked, and your writing speed shapes the brush, wet and dark when slow, dry when fast.

✨ Features

  • 100 levels — 100 of the most useful characters, 1 to 13 strokes
  • Pinyin and English meaning for every single character
  • 3 common words per character — 300 words, each with pinyin and meaning
  • Real audio — every character and word can be read aloud
  • Auto-read toggle — hear each character the moment you finish it
  • Stroke-order checking — the game tells you which stroke comes first
  • Speed shapes the brush — the ink responds to how you write
  • Graded S–C on accuracy and flow, with free redos
  • Beginner-first curve — you start with 一, the simplest character of all
  • Original music & sound effects — one-tap mute toggle
  • English by default, one-tap switch to Chinese at the top-right
