chinese word game for windows phone 7

blakomen   March 5th, 2012 7:26p.m.

since skritter isn't going to be coming to wp7 any time soon, and while waiting for the iOS app to come out so I can learn on the run on my ipad, I built a little chinese word game for anyone else out there who's got a windows phone:

Take a look, let me know what you think - it's no skritter, but every little bit helps :)

I think you'll have a hard time convincing the other three people who bought a Windows phone to start learning Chinese, but the app certainly looks interesting!

Haha well I've convinced myself so that's 1/3...but in all seriousness Windows Phone is a great product and it saddens me that its not getting the traction it deserves :P

We shall see!

Nice job, Henry--I'll check the app out when my friend with a Windows phone gets back in town. (She's a developer at Microsoft, so I don't know if she counts as another Windows phone customer.)
