While this game offers a range of words to learn, the translations of words to the objects displayed are sometimes wrong. Ex. A slow cooker is displayed, english: cooker, french: la cuisinière (wrong, la mijoteuse is correct) Memorizing the proper words to objects seems a basic and minimum bar for a language learning game and at times this one falls short. Assuming the translation to objects issue gets fixed: The progress is rather slow and boring except for a section called "Learning Rush" which offers timed word review in the form of a simple mini-game (choose among four objects based on various words spoken). There are conversation interactions with NPCs, however it is a leap forward in difficulty offering very little beyond a basic introduction to a variety of sentences. Daily reviews of things learned are bundled into a section called "Revisions" which offer some measure of learning benefit in speaking and word memorization, however there is very little play value here in what should be a game. Learning numbers and colors are also provided in environmental interaction, but again a player spends more time throwing bolts at broken robots than in learning the corresponding numbers associated. CONCLUSION: A learning game should first be accurate and fun. This is often not achieved in this game, however there are not a lot of language learning games on steam, therefore: Buy, but wait for it to be under $10 and have other sources for learning and verifying the language.

Great idea for a game, now I just need Grammar Village. I have noticed some problems with learning Japanese on this app. Furigana will often be wrong when the shown kanji uses a more special pronunciation. 二人 shown as ににん and similar issues with 20日 / 20歳 etc. Voice recognition is also often wrong, and not for the same reason as listed pronunciations being different. Voice recognition is very inaccurate. During tests it will display that I said completely different words as if passed what I said through multiple translations and spellchecks before taking it as my inputted answer. Good for people interested in learning but it looks like a mistake to have this in classrooms, despite what their website says.

It's kind of addictive, I just want to keep seeing the new areas and unlock all the words. I'm on a 3 year streak on Duolingo and I feel like vocabulary is my weakest point. I'm about 6 hours in and I've learned a lot of vocabulary that I haven't learned in DL in 3 years.

I just finished all that's offered for japanese, it took me about a month of 30m-1hr a day, that included 10 new nouns and 1-4 conversation/grammar lessons per day. I wouldn't recommend for a complete beginner in a language because the conversation lessons would be very overwhelming and honestly don't teach grammar in much depth at all so it'd very hard to learn it for the first time i imagine. However if you already know some grammar and some nouns but you just want something to expand the list of nouns under your belt than noun town is actually very good for that, enjoyable too. I'll just rapid fire some haphazard notes i have about the game - at the end i had 431/506 nouns completed, but theres no more to be found, im assuming its because they'll add a couple more areas in the future - a good bit (like probably half) of the nouns are borrowed words (ex: gorilla = ゴリラ(go-ri-ra)) - occasionally using the wrong kanji in lessons, 暑い (hot as in weather) instead of 熱い (hot as in touch) - some spelling errors regarding the romanji (ex: 看護師 being read as "kankoshi" instead of the correct "kangoshi") - using "なぜ” for "why" in a lesson (very unnatural for spoken japanese; more common in writing) as opposed to using either "なんで" or ”どうして" - missing dialogue audio for 2 lessons in the clothing store ("is a bit longer" audio missing in one, and the next lesson having no audio at all - very enjoyable characters and music through out the whole game - overall very little bugs for an early access instances of errors were pretty rare so don't be discouraged by that, as a non-native speaker it's difficult to know exactly how many things were wrong or unnatural but i think the games purpose is to supplement your learning with a bunch of nouns to learn so you have a better foundation in a more fun way, and in that case i think it serves its purpose very well.

I'm only a couple of hours into "playing" Noun Town, so I may extend this later, but... On the whole, i like it. I already speak *some* Japanese, so that's where I've started, to reinforce and expand on that... especially reading it. In general, I do really enjoy learning at least some aspects of other languages, so I'm definitely looking forward to checking out the other languages included in Noun Town. Pros: I like the inclusion of conversational sentences that go beyond "This is a book." I also like the inclusion of Kanji, but with a suggestion I'll note below. Cons: In construction mode, placing things seems inconsistent. Sometimes I can pick something up and set it down somewhere else, and sometimes trying to set it down again merely moves the avatar. I haven't figured out yet if there's a pattern to that. The enunciation of the numbers needs some work. For someone who doesn't already know how to say (e.g.) 1 through 20, listening to some of the spoken numbers will lead to incorrectly guessing what's being said, and will fail to repeat it correctly. Same with some other words. Some pronunciations are just wrong. CD, for example, is not "C D" in Japanese, but rather "shi di". It simply wouldn't accept that pronunciation (or even "C D") from me at all. Initial ideas for enhancement / improvement: Allow work done in the demo to carry over into the purchased game. Losing that wasn't the end of the world, but it seemed preventable. At least for placing flowers, it'd be nice to show a throwing-arc (or even just a landing-point), to allow for more intentional placement. Include a Hiragana-teaching component, and *always* include Hiragana, even if the player has requested Romanization. Romaji is fine for people who already know how Japanese sounds form words, but it can be misleading otherwise. With the exception of the 'N' sound, Japanese sounds consist of a stand-alone vowel or a consonant-sound with an attached (trailing) vowel sound, A, I, U, Ka, Ki, Ku, Ta, Tchi, Tsu, etc. An English speaker who doesn't aleady know that will almost inevitably mis-pronounce some/most Japanese words when reading Romaji. This is because of the (largely Latin-influenced) way in which English syllables are formed, which yields syllables that have trailing consonant sounds. e.g. A-ri-ga-to (ありがと..."thanks") is crystal clear when written in Hiragana, but an English-speaker seeing Arigato might be tempted to mis-pronounce it as Ar-i-gat-o. As for the inclusion of Kanji characters, I think that would benefit from also including Ofurigana with those, or perhaps including that as an option. Knowing how to pronounce a given Kanji character is a challenge for someone learning the language, and the small Hiragana (Ofurigana) written above Kanji characters removes any doubt.
