About Sheng Tian (升天) - Episode 1

An Ancient Language
A Future World
A Vital Mission



Sheng Tian (升天) - Episode 1 is an innovative 3D game for learning Taiwanese Mandarin. Characters are also used in Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia, Macau, China, and Japan. Pronunciation is common to Taiwan and China. No prior language experience is assumed or required.

Game Features

  • Puzzle your way through 7 intriguing 3D environments.
  • Learn your first 50 terms directly in context, free of translation.
  • About 2+ hours of gameplay including an overarching storyline.
  • Toggle between traditional or simplified characters.
  • Change to an audio-only mode to practice listening.
  • Browse the included dictionary after each section to validate your understanding.

The Philosophy of Language Learning in Sheng Tian (升天)


Sheng Tian (升天) was designed by language and learning experts to simulate the experience of being immersed in another culture. Rather than memorizing flashcards or answering forced-choice questions, in Sheng Tian, players intuitively learn words while using them to complete tasks and solve puzzles. As you play, Sheng Tian builds your explicit knowledge, but also unconscious, procedural fluency.

I found this game while looking for Chinese learning games and thought I'd give it a try. This concept for a language learning game is very engaging, and I believe it would be an effective tool for language learning if it were more complete. This is the only episode, which introduces very limited, beginner level vocabulary. I hope the devs still have something planned for this game in the future. I would love to see more!

The language learning is very intuitive and by the end of it you will have a few lines of text to read which feels exhilarating after focusing on learning one word on its own at a time. One of the best language learning games I've played so far because it doesn't translate anything, you are learning the language on its own terms through comprehensible input!

Really creative game for learning. Kinda feels a bit like Myst, very laid back and relaxing but also a productive way to spend some time learnign some new characters. I've been learning Chinese for a few months now and this game reflects that skill level, it is for beginners for sure. I do wish the puzzles were a bit more complicated and challenging but that might make it more stressful so it's an interesting trade off. Overall the game and level design feels creative and unique. Worth the price for sure!

A very nice little learning game. I find the minimalist and at times surreal graphics style very charming. Sound is quite tasteful as well. That all complements nicely the process of character and spelling memorization. Please make more episodes!!! There is a lot of potential to this idea.

Great concept for learning/expanding Chinese vocabulary. Would like to see more episodes in the future.

A fun game and really helpful for learning traditional chinese characters. If you are looking at more structured writing and reading learning it isn't quite designed for thatbut if you are working on understanding the basics of directions, food and other simple points it is a freat one.
