## What is Kana Shiritori?

Turn a short break into Japanese word practice with a friendly word-chain game.

Follow the last kana, use a short meaning hint, and tap every kana tile in order to complete the next word. Show romaji under each tile when you want reading help. A mistaken tap does not erase your progress, and Undo lets you step back.

Make each session fit your level:
- Practice with 500 playable words across 12 everyday topics
- Use an English meaning and a short Japanese clue for every word
- Choose Foundation or Developing difficulty, shown as approximate N5/N4 level guides
- Focus on one topic or mix topics together
- See fewer recently practiced words from one session to the next
- Save useful words and review them later with meanings and example sentences

One free practice session is available each day. Shiritori Plus Lifetime is a $7.99 one-time purchase that unlocks unlimited practice, every topic, unlimited saved words, review at helpful intervals, and extra hints.

No account is required. The app has no ads and does not use your activity to track you across apps or websites.
