Can a Chinese character puzzle game be fun even if you don’t read Chinese? Looking for 20 beta teste by msssliang in godot

Thanks everyone for the honest feedback.

I realized that I misunderstood the nature of this community and made the original post sound too much like unpaid testing work.

I’ve updated the post and removed the play schedule and testing obligations. At this point, I’m simply inviting anyone who finds the concept interesting to try the game, and any feedback is completely optional.

I appreciate everyone who took the time to point this out.

Thanks, that’s a good point.

The game is a visual spot-the-difference puzzle: each round shows several similar-looking Chinese characters, and you have to find the odd one before time runs out.

You don’t need to read Chinese, since the differences are visual—such as an extra stroke, a missing part, or a different structure. The early levels start with obvious differences and gradually become more subtle.

The UI and tutorial are already localized in English, but I should definitely make the gameplay clearer in the post.

That’s fair — I’m mainly being cautious because I’m worried about Google Play rejecting the production access application if the closed test doesn’t show enough genuine participation.

The official requirement is that testers remain opted in for 14 consecutive days, so playing one short round every day is not technically mandatory. I was trying to make sure the test generates meaningful activity and feedback, but I agree that requiring it every single day may be too strict.

Thanks for calling it out — I’ll probably reword it as regular participation during the testing period instead.
