Learn Mandarin one island at a time. Study Chinese takes you from your first 你好 to HSK 6 on the classic track, or to Level 9 on the new HSK 3.0 syllabus, with Bao the panda beside you. BAO WORLD Every course is its own painted world, and every chapter is an island. Bao walks the trail with you, stop by stop: new words, flashcards, matching, listening, writing and speaking. Clear the island and the moon gate opens to the next one. BOSS FIGHTS Each part of a chapter is guarded by a mini-boss: the Stone Lion, the Lantern Spirit, the Ink Imp or the Terracotta Guard. Your answers are your attacks. At the end of the chapter, the Nian Beast (年兽) tests everything you learned.
