We have been running some character guessing games on Twitter for more than a month now and it's time to summarise and share the answers.

Below are some of the challenges. Follow us on Twitter for more!

Set #2: 子、这、照 and 同
Set #3: 星、豆、司 and 本
Set #4: 春、年、菜 and 山
Set #5: 天、课、手 and 地

Scroll down for the answers, but we of course encourage you to think long and hard before peeking!

These are too hard for me to guess (yeah I suck :D), but I like them. Maybe if I keep trying I'll find one I can guess.

This is more my speed :D

Set #0: 就、不、還 and 但

This is a great exercise! And fun. I guessed 上 for Set #5. I think that's legit.
