### 2/5 — No value

*2012-10-01, version 1.2.0*

This "game" offers zero value. There is no educational value, as you are simply matching kana to itself. The least the developers could do is have the spoken sound I the kana as they come up and after they are solved. Or perhaps a match the romaji equivalent to the corresponding kana. Without offering any sort of educational value, there is very little left to expect from this game, and very little else offered. The only reason why I give this two stars is the tiny bit of usefulness of having some sort of first time exposure to kana in some way. Perhaps playing this game will cause these symbols to become familiar to the player well after playing this game when they decide to look elsewhere to actually learn anything about them.

### 5/5 — Touch the あいうえお

### 5/5 — Nice!
