Chinese Parents
In this casual sim set in China, you step into the shoes of an average kid from birth towards the end of your high school. Study hard, have fun, make friends and face your ultimate challenge, the “Gaokao”. What will your life be after that? And when you have a child, will you be a Tiger Parent?

“I really like this game, the only thing I'm lacking is more content. Each life seems pretty much the same, every interaction is as well so having some more dynamics to it would really make this great!”
— a player, Steam review · 15 hrs played“funny lil candy crush ahh game that teaches me a bit about chinese culture! I didn't know face value was so important! I thought it was an exagerration but after taking some cultural pschology courses it seems to be pretty accurate!”
— a player, Steam review · 12 hrs played“This game gets boring extremely quickly. The funny gag only lasts so long. It quickly becomes repetitive and boring.... I wanted to get to some point, like I assume you become an adult and then play your kid? But couldn't make it. Ultimately I just can't recommend.”
