That's an interesting idea, I don't know of any games like that.
I'm working (slowly ) on a game based on The Journey to the West
(sometimes called 'Monkey'). I don't know anything about Chinese culture
but Lanxuin, my wife, is going to help me add those touches to the game.
I'd like to use Chinese (and a few Sanskrit) terms in the game, but I
don't want to confuse the player. I could replace 'north', 'south',
'east', 'west', 'get', 'drop' with their Chinese equivalents, but I
think most people would get distressed at interacting with the game like
this.
I'll slowly feed the player with Chinese words and names, via names of
NPCs, items and spell-names etc. I don't want to try to teach the poor
guy (or gal) too much, because I think they'd soon stop playing. I think
it's best to get someone to learn while they're having fun, even if they
learn just a likkle.
I am also writing a game with all the text and commands in Enochian. Does
anyone have an Enochian spell-checker ? };^)*
