About

Learn Mandarin Chinese by playing. Ling Snake turns Chinese vocabulary into flashcard decks and bite-sized games, so new words actually stick. It's built on the HSK 3.0 syllabus — HSK is the official Chinese proficiency standard, and the new 2026 edition is the most current version. Study a deck, warm up in a playground, then jump into a game to make it click. — Thousands of words in one app — Study 5,000+ words from the new 2026 HSK 3.0 syllabus, Levels 1 through 6 — beginner to advanced. Levels 7–9 are on the way in future updates. — More fun than traditional flashcards — Ling Snake keeps practice fresh with a whole arcade of learning games, each one testing a different skill — recall, recognition, spelling, and speed under pressure. The games aren't gamification bolted on for its own sake; each one is built from a timeless classic you already know, so it feels fun before it ever feels like a lesson. Nine games are ready to play today, with new ones arriving in future updates. — Reviews that respect your time — Ling Snake schedules words for review with a modern spaced-repetition scheduler (FSRS) that predicts when you're about to forget a word and shows it to you right before you do. You review less and remember more — no wasted repetitions. — Play with the building blocks — Themed playgrounds let you get hands-on with the pieces the language is made of, so the fundamentals feel familiar long before they show up in the classroom. Three playgrounds are here today, with more on the way. — Something new every day — Daily activities keep you coming back — a lucky word of the day, daily cultural tidbits, and game challenges that keep refreshing day by day. Streaks and levels track your momentum, and your progress syncs across every device. — Personalize your experience — Unlock and switch color themes, card backs, and accessories for your avatar as you learn and play, with more to collect in every update. — Ling Snake Pro — Unlock everything with a Pro subscription. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours of the period's end.
