## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — レア単語の定義が謎

*2023-02-06, version 1.3*

正解文字「じ」のヒントが「た行」でした。
「じ」は「ざ行」です。
「つくし」と「つらら」がレア単語とされる中、「たくち」は通ったりするので、「レア単語」の定義はもっと一般の感覚に寄せたほうがいい。

### 3/5 — An interesting concept, but not enough explanations

*2026-04-14, version 1.5*

I like the game. However, there are several things I don’t understand. Like why is there a day number written on top (1560 days) an what does it mean. What kind of words are possible (only nouns, or are there also verbs and adjectives). Lots of stuff you need to somehow figure out yourself. Also, there are only two levels - beginner and advanced, no in-between.

### 4/5 — 過去問に戻りたい！

*2025-05-09, version 1.5*

広告もなく、日々の隙間時間に使いやすいのですが、過去にまだやってない問題にすぐに飛べるとありがたいです。

### 4/5 — 面白い

*2024-07-15, version 1.5*

過去の問題がリストとかで選べるともっといいです！！！

### 4/5 — Could we get a calendar view?

*2023-12-08, version 1.5*

Pressing an arrow a few hundred times to reach a previous day is a bit too tedious to be worth while.

### 4/5 — Wish I could play again

*2023-05-01, version 1.3*

This app is fun but you can only play a single word every day. Kind of wish there was a infinite mode. 🥲

### 5/5 — Wonderful for learners and fun

*2026-05-06, version 1.5*

This fun game helps me learn, remember, and exercise vocabulary. Super simple to learn with plenty of challenges.

I imagine it might give away too much information but knowing when more than one mora is in the same column would be useful. Also the share feature crashes on my SE3.

### 5/5 — Better than described, get it even if you’re on the fence. An important feature should be added

*2024-01-06, version 1.5*

I was expecting wordle in Japanese and that’s exactly what it is. For learners it even has a setting to limit the vocab, and the built in dictionary is an excellent implementation. However, I think there should be a better browse feature for past words so you don’t have to click the arrow each time; it has repeatedly crashed if I scroll too fast. Besides that, this is one of the best ways to prove your skills and expand your vocabulary. 

Thank you for the time you’ve put in to making this app.

### 5/5 — awesome

*2023-02-04, version 1.3*

genius for learning words!

### 5/5 — Pretty interesting

*2022-04-25, version 1.2*

I had to get used to it and lost the first day because I didn’t get it. But now I understand it and it’s a fun way of learning new words. Since I don’t know too many words yet it was a lot of guessing involved.
