### 5/5 — Good But Error

*2023-12-05*

The pronouncing and hiragana spelling for Painting kanji word is wrong. Please check or else it’s a great app.

### 4/5 — Nice app

*2023-10-10*

It’s a very simple but nice app. However, there are no sounds! Hope you will fix it in the future.

### 5/5 — learn and have fun

*2022-09-05*

i enjoy this game while learning kanji

### 5/5 — A fun way to learn kanji

*2021-01-30*

I like the way the game allows the user to customise elements of the game such as the avatar, the speed of walking and how many kanji to play. The design is cute and the questions are varied from English meaning, choosing the furigana, and choosing the hiragana reading. As for personal preferences, I wish that I can access the collected kanji cards from the main menu so I don’t need to enter into a game to review the card. I also prefer that the card that appears in the beginning of each level doesn’t bounce so I can memorise them more easily. All in all, priced at AUD 5.50 to unlock all levels, I think this app worths every penny. If you don’t feel like paying, you can still enjoy playing the 1st 6 level and some early levels in the next stages. In the future, I think it’ll will be awesome if the game upgraded itself with an audio feature so users can practice their hearing and their shadowing while listening to the correct pronunciation of the words.
