How it feels

A gentle, cat-themed kanji learning game that feels like a playful sushi train adventure.

What players say

Players praise Kanji Cats as a fun way to drill kanji readings and vocabulary, especially for JLPT prep. The four game modes and level filters keep practice flexible, though some note the repetition is inherent to learning. The developers are responsive to bugs, and the gachapon cosmetics add a light reward loop.
