What players say
Players find it a useful memory game for reinforcing hiragana, katakana and vocabulary, especially those already familiar with basics. Common complaints include that vocabulary cards display the answer, the character moves too slowly between fights, and sound effects overpower the voice audio. The game offers over 600 levels and uses varied kana fonts, which helps with real-world recognition.
