What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Chinomikon is a brief educational game that teaches basic Chinese characters and vocabulary through monster-battling mechanics, with players praising its story achievements, useful HSK 1-level words, and soundtrack. Common criticisms include its very short length (completable in about an hour) and a learning method that some find unengaging, though players suggest audio pronunciation guidance could significantly improve the experience. At its low price point, reviewers feel it offers decent value for those interested in learning introductory Chinese.
Taking into consideration price, I'll recommend this game. + Story related achievements + Definitely could learn several chinese characters + Soundtrack - Very small - The way of learning is not so interesting9 found this helpful
I am actually teaching English in China just like the character in the game, therefore, this game was quite appealing to me. The entire game can be completed in 1 hour and I really hope more games like this will be made. The words are useful for someone at an HSK 1 level (The 34 vocabulary words are related to greetings, living space, office, shop, etc.). The correct "pinyin" is needed in order to defeat the Chinese character monster. I think this game could be improved if a Chinese person spoke the words every time you attack the monsters. It would be amazing if someone could play this game and at least mimic the correct pronunciation of a few Chinese words. For $0.99, it was well worth it.3 found this helpful
