This game is AMAZING for practicing your hiragana or katakana. its super fun and the competative mode makes me want to be better and learn more, faster. The only "ehh" i have about this game is the font lmao (i never thought i would say this haha) but yeah since i learned the hiragana elsewhere and the font is a lil THICC so sometimes i mess up (skill issue). But thats it other then that this game is amazing and would recommend this rather then going to quizzlet and buying their pro to study when you can just use this app.

it looks and sounds very good. However it would be better if you could choose what characters shows up in the endless mode so you can slowly and controllably learn and introduce more and more.

This game is very simple and provides an easy, repetitive way to learn Hiragana and Katakana. For me, the endless and competitive modes are the real golden treat on this game. I will be moving back to Japan soon and the refresher I am getting from this game is helping me out big time. In the future I hope to see more minigames and maybe the option to smooth letters (non 8-bit style) or perhaps other font styles.

I think this game would of been really helpful for learning kana, however the font mixed with the moving text makes it super difficult for reading and memorising in my opinion :( I do still recommend it but maybe it would be more ideal for someone learning to read kana in fonts/handwriting instead of newly learning ?

Simple UI, and somehow really addicting. Once you start, you feel like you must finish, and then you remember kanji, then you cry, then you thank this game for not containing any kanji, then you go back to your hiragana and katakana like an infant returning to their mother for her breast milk.

Games like Black Myth Wukong: the boss, not the world

Games like Black Myth Wukong have to replace the fight, not the setting: the deflect window, the transformations, the one-more-try pull. These do, from Ashina to Tsushima.

Games like Hollow Knight: one kingdom you have to learn

Games like Hollow Knight are judged on one thing: whether the world is a single place you learn or a menu of levels. These keep it connected, from Pharloom to a well full of secrets.

Anno 117 price: free to try on Xbox, and what a key has cost

Anno 117: Pax Romana is free for every Xbox member until Sunday. The Anno 117 price on PC is another matter: 32 readings since late September, and the floor has moved.

Games like Borderlands 3: guns that roll, trees that branch

Games like Borderlands 3 have to do two things at once: roll a new gun every few minutes and make a skill tree worth planning. These manage both, and one asks you to craft instead.

Games like Dragon Age 2: one city, ten years, three acts

Games like Dragon Age 2 are hard to find because almost no RPG keeps you in one city while it rots. These come close, from Neketaka to the streets of Serene.

Games like Remember Me, for the memory remix more than the city

Games like Remember Me, picked for the Memory Remix rather than the neon: minds you can break into, a vertical city to climb, and combos you build yourself.

Games like Noita, where the physics is the real enemy

Games like Noita for the two things it really does: spells you assemble yourself, and a simulated world that takes nobody's side. Seven picks, from a slugcat to a dwarf fortress.
