Unity, the game engine, is actually written in C and C++. But we developers do indeed write scripts for our Unity games in C#.

I'm also not sure I agree with your time estimate on learning the language. If you're a complete beginner, maybe, but if you already have some experience in programming, it shouldn't take long at all. I had learned Java in college and jumped into writing games in Unity without ever having to explicitly learn C#. Of course, I picked up many of C#'s unique features and nuances over the years, but little of it was necessary to use the language effectively.
