Would love if there was a way to sort characters by order obtained/number of unobtained combinations!
I blinked and now I have almost 50hrs in this game. It scratches such a specific itch and I love it. I've never studied Mandarin.
incral: CJK languages have some characters in common. pretty sure this game is specifically about chinese
are you sure this is chinese? because i got a vid on my other screen about a lingo level where you learn japanese, and saw a few familiar characters. does china also use these characters, or are you including asian characters in general?
i keep trying to drag and drop the elements but it's not like that

I love it! Now import a dictionary so I can use this to help me practice my Mandarin
the screen scrolls with the list unless you're in full screen
This needs a font, not all of the characters are displayed properly on my device
As a Chinese I don't really know how to progress in this game. I can't quickly remember how can these 'basic character' merge into other ones. Maybe I could do better if I was in the first grade of primary school.
Also I guess there should be a button to delete all item; I feel confused about the mess after every ~5min of trying to merge new characters.
It's also confusing some merges I imagined don't work, like 一+一=二, 一+丨=十 and so many others.
And the "Hide completed characters" thing doesn't automatically hide it when you completed an element
