Chinese Parents - Gameplay Impressions (Guide)

After living in Shanghai for the past nine years, it's safe to say I've experienced my fair share of Chinese culture. I've been to the HaiDiLao Hotpot and the karaoke, exchanged moon cakes, and sung “Tian Mi Mi” at the spring festival galas. But one thing I've never had is Chinese parents. Originally released in 2018 and developed by Littoral Games, Chinese Parents is a life simulator that places players into the shoes of your average Chinese kid. Not being Chinese, I was naturally curious about the title and, of course, the authenticity of the experience. What I found was a pretty fun satirical view of Chinese adolescence and an exciting game to boot!

Fans were excited about the prospect of a new game from the same creator. However, Moyuwan Games, the studio behind Chinese Parents, has issued a statement clarifying that Crazy for Love 2 is not their creation. They also revealed that Yang had left the studio some time ago and that they plan to pursue legal action against him for allegedly using his connections to prevent the mobile version of Chinese Parents from being licensed, as well as illegally acquiring confidential information and intellectual property from the studio.
