Very useful for recognition practice of kanji, hiragana and katakana.
It's a fun game for sure but if you want to practice Kanji you are better off just downloading the free SRS (Spaced Repetition System) Anki.
Playing this currently on steam deck runs smooth fun story and helps with learning kanji. no brainer for everyone who wants to learn japanese.
Alright for learning kanji, my main issues are that it doesn't display all main meanings of a kanji and not all potential readings. It is also segmented into grades instead of JLPT levels of which would just be a preference of mine.
KanjiBox via google or the appstore is a good resource for learning kanji in order of the JLPT levels.
Weak recommendation but it borders on positive. Being greeted by the Unity logo tends to show amateurish work and it does show in how this program handles. It doesn't work well in full-screen mode, some words are cut off because of mark-up programming, and I still don't know what 'nao-su' is or what the kanji for it represents.
It's not so much a game as it is a flash-card training program with a little bit more variation than some bare-bones app. It has two background songs which are nice and you can turn it off if you want so most things are provided and thought about. The training itself is simple, but it works. You can start this game and do some practice while letting something else play in the background.
like to say be good to ask a native speaker perhaps to look at it seams one kanji is misrepresented 似 I was told meaning is
"Resemble" not "Responsibility" as in the kanji 任 next to it, and some i am seeing repeated words it is strange to say the least not saying the Training is bad unless intentional done so and the makers own mistakes are not on accident I seen more than one dictionary and although mostly the same not always similar.
this game isn't to learn new things but it's more a help to remember stuff you already learned, and in that aspect I rate it 100% positive. But yes,. don't get it if you want to learn new things.
This probably would be best as a supplement or refresher for those learning the language. Or who know the three alphabets, but need to be sure for their next trip, business or otherwise. It has very little teaching value. Since if you don't know what the characters mean... you can't exactly pass the quiz...
You can learn not only Kanji, but also Hiragan and Katakana. Even if you dont know them, this game will help you memorise them by trial and error. You will start to memorize them. The game is simple but clean, all I need.
Cons: I would love to hear the sound of the characters, it is only written, but even so, it is a very good tool. You can chanche the transcription to romaji, so you can know how it sound like.
This is NOT good to LEARN any of the three Japanese writing languages; Katakana, Hiragana, or Kanji. There are no explanations or tutorials on how to learn the material and I feel the hints come in too quickly for you to engage with the tests. I would recommend something else and use this as a way to REVIEW what you already know.
That being said, I enjoy the music that accompanies the game and would recommend it as a quick (but not comprehensive) review of Katakana and Hragana.
I wouldn't reccomend this game for one specific reason, I could get the exact same game on my phone for free under 20 different names. I loved the music and all the art, it was really pretty and submersive, but the game itself is lacking in actual "gameplay". It doesn't explain to you or micromanage you learning hiragana, kanji or katakana. You are given a chart on all the characters and the rest is a basic matching game. I don't mean to say that what the game is doing is bad, but I probably would have just gone for the phone app if I realized matching was all there was.
As possible constructive critisism, I would suggest adding an area for explaining different parts of the language such as the kanji's two different ways to be read, or somewhere that explains the use a dakuten to the player. Something to give the game more of a learning feel, rather than basic matching romanji to kana/kanji.
I had a rather negative impression of the game at first, but after some improvements have been made I now find it much better.
What I like is:
+ cool music
+ it's cheap
+ it's nice to have something more interactive to study Kanji with
+ there are new modes being added so that you can use it both for testing your present knowledge of Kanji and learn new ones in smaller sets
Some drawbacks:
- you can't create your own sets
- it finishes the exercise after you match around 70% of the characters and there is no option to continue even if you'd like to
There are mistakes in kanji and their descriptions (直 is drawn wrong and has "nao-su" in meaning). Many meanings are omitted. Disappointing for a learning game.
@Dev: please put some more effort into this game. This has so much potential!
Regarding the advertising, call this game early access if you want. Its disingenuous to ask people to pay for an incomplete product.
Perhaps you don't understand the significant difference between "mostly positive" and "overwhemlingly positive", from the point of view of both steam's algorithm, and for the user. All you need to get rid of the negative reviews is to add a "training mode" where you can mouse over kanji and see a card showing the description.
Pros
- Nice soundtrack
- Does contain all the kanji it claims to
Cons
- No tracking of what you learn. If you could just keep stats on which symbols you got wrong, that alone would make this game worthwhile
- The game needs atleast an endless mode. Where it redraws the board and doesn't repeat kanji until you get through all of those in the set.
- Typos in game
You can't use this game to learn but you can use it to solidify what you've learned.
I'm putting down a yes because its usable as is, but the game is sorely lacking and should not have been published like this. I hope the dev pushes updates soon.
This game is very simple. It gives you a character from the Japanese language with many options to choose from. This is helpful for memorizing and quickly identifying the characters. Many people are quick to point out that there are no lessons in the game and that it won't actually teach you anything, however after being tested on several kanji that I didn't previously know I found out that looking at all the options and trying again and again to figure out which one it was made me remember it much better than simply being told, this kanji means this. Also I found being quizzed and getting a little better over time, due to learning, oddly addicting.
Is not a game. It's just the card-game Memory with kanji: no motivation or method to actually learn them through this, You can get apps for free that do this better,
Avoid this one.
You will not get trained in Kanji, hiragana or katakana from this. At least not in any traditional sense. You are presented with a bunch of tiles showing a character with the name or meaning above and you have to click on the right tile to move on. If you don't know, you just keep clicking. This is where the "training" could happen in that it BRIEFLY tells you what the one you clicked on is, but if you can memorize things that quickly, you're better off picking up an actual Japanese language book from the bookstore.
There is less game to it than a visual novel. And it's certainly less interesting as well. If you already know Japanese and want a little bit of practice you might consider this when it's on the cheap, but then you probably already have practice materials.
As others have said -- this is seriously misrepresented.
Original review: I was excited to see something that would make it fun to learn over a thousand characters but unfortuneatly this doesn't. You basically guess at tiles and when you pick the right one it disappears immediately so it can't stick in your mind. It's not the way to teach and it's not fun. The first very simple fix is to show the meaning on hover so one has time to absorb. There is obviously an origin to each character and many characters are similar so it should get into those things in a 'training mode' and provide some hooks for learning. I WILL spend more time with it but I hope the devs study the human learning process and align this 'learning' 'game' with that.
Review after an update: Better because the right choice does not disappear but it's still not training. There would need to be some kind of 'fun' schooling or training mode before each test to be both fun and educational. I am still spending time with it because I really want to learn the characters so I hope it's expanded and I can give a thumbs up.
From the get-go, this game doesn't replace actual studying for kanji on your own. It is more of a memory mix-and-match type of deal. To make matters worse, the game itself is riddled with bad localization and transliteration errors most likely resulting from Japanese phonetical spellings into English such as (but not limited to): luggage - laggage, livelihood - libelihood.
Doesn't come close to providing help for actual kanji studying. Don't touch with a ten foot pole.
Good for those already familiar with the hiragana, katakana, and kanji characters and wish to remember them easier. Overall, if you're looking to learn Japanese as a beginner, you are better left just looking that up online OR take a college class of it. If they plan to add more, and depending on what, may change my review.
It's nice to have, but is not probably worth to grab at this moment.
Review dated from the first day of release :
Useful to RE-learn katakana, hiragana.
Pros :
- for people who have already started to learn japanese elsewhere, it's a good way to review what you've learned.
- 1006 Kanji is a lot, with time it will be a useful resource to memorize them.
- price is quite good for a tool like that.
Cons :
- for beginners, there is (at the time I write these lines) no reference to consult when you want to have a first look at the alphabets.
