Abstract :
Tetris is a popular game available on almost every computer platform. A Tetris segment is made up of four rectangular blocks, which fits rightly with a four-character Chinese proverb. We utilize the Tetris game plot and design the Chitetris game -- an interactive and extensible Chinese proverb learning platform. The Chitetris game augments the spatial recognition and manipulation game elements of Tetris with the glyph recognition and semantic synthesis elements. We believe the Chitetris game offer an interactive, interesting, and engaging Chinese proverb learning environment that will enthuse student players.
