Game Info

WordJoy presents players with a grid of stacked component cards, each representing a part of a Chinese character. The core gameplay involves strategically moving these cards. A key rule dictates that a component card with fewer strokes can only be placed on a card with exactly one additional stroke. By carefully observing the available components, rearranging them, and planning moves ahead, players must clear obstacles and assemble the necessary parts to construct two target characters in each puzzle. The game supports English and both Simplified and Traditional Chinese languages, broadening its accessibility.
