Good study aid in reinforcement. I have tried to learn and retain Hiragana for YEARS. The retention is the most difficult part (ADHD is a ♥♥♥♥♥). I have started and stopped this game a few times but recently I committed harder and played a single game for 8 hours and beat it (I did play it also while I was doing other things so it took longer). Love the soundtrack too. I definitely recommend this game to help you reinforce what you've learned. Good game for a good price. I know it says RPG and it's not NOT that but you aren't playing this for the story. It would have been nice to have more time in the game to practice vocabulary but that's the only complaint. PS - for everyone who says the game is too fast (walking speed maybe? It IS turn-based combat after all), check your settings and see if Always Dash is on

It's really simple if you already have a decent understanding of hiragana, but the natural grinding is a pretty good way to really pound home the symbols and sounds. It's interesting they introduce the dakuon and handakuon early on. Kind of a neat touch that you never do see the english name of some powerful items. If you like the old-style RPG Maker games and you're wanting to learn Japanese this is probably pretty good.

Great for learning hiragana, its not a great game but good enough to keep you going and learn the characters. I recommend using the kana-app in parallel or write everything on to a paper. Around 13 hours of content.

Thanks to this game, Hiragana was permanently burned into my brain. If you're a newcomer to Japanese, this game is a MUST PLAY. It also teaches some words and grammar. Definitely complete this one and Katakana War before tackling Genki or Wanikani.
