Ohayou! Beginner's Japanese

In the beta a friend received for free, you could not click past the start screen. This was patched four days before the release day, I am pleased to say. Ohayou! is a game that supposedly teaches you Japanese. What it instead does, is gives you flashcards. There are some "games," if you can call them that, associated with these flashcards. A tired woman will either cackle maniacally as you do well, or depending on what mode you enter, sleepily pronounce singular letters and sounds. EEH. OOH. EEHH... Provided you are internet connected, I've checked. Price of unruled index cards: $0.49~$1.00 for 100 packs. Price of a sharpie marker: $1.50~$1.90. Combined with a search Engine and phrases such as "Learn Japanese," you will have infinite more content than this game and possibly less hearing damage for close to half the price.

Terrible UI and font choice. prologue to the game is way too long. The gameplay itself is not clear. There is a plenty of free mobile apps to learn Japanese ;-;

Very good game! A good way to get started with the basics of the Hiragana and Katakana alphabet. Comes with flashcards with playable pronunciation. Nice choice of options to learn with romaji or sounds. Would recommend for a beginner.;

Educational game teaching you how to read Japanese, and understand its sounds. Currently only covers Hiragana and Katakana. Seems fun. Recommended.

This is one of my set of games to learn a bit Japanese because it shows you in what order you have to do the strokes. Along that it has some basic hints for some kana. Of course, this is not a full grammar course but helps to get into the hiragana and katakana alphabet. The "gaming" - aka practice is pretty reduced bit i like that you also have a "listen" test. So I would recommend along https://store.steampowered.com/app/997720/Lets_Learn_Japanese_Hiragana/ https://store.steampowered.com/app/1018900/Lets_Learn_Japanese_Katakana/ and finally - for a real learning game - the awesome https://store.steampowered.com/app/1114950/Learn_Japanese_RPG_Hiragana_Forbidden_Speech/
