Vielen Dank! Wir freuen uns, dass Ihnen Wagotabi gefällt. Bei der Entwicklung von Wagotabi haben wir jahrelang experimentiert, um die ideale Balance zwischen Lernen, Spaß und Vertiefung zu finden. Regelmäßig erweitern wir Wagotabi um neue Städte und Lerninhalte. Bitte erzählen Sie Ihren Freunden und Bekannten von Wagotabi: das hilft uns sehr!

Conception d’une étonnante qualité

Outre l’aspect linguistique, qui permet une entrée en matière ludique et challengeante, on voit d’emblée l’effort de conception du jeu — les graphismes sont propres, les fonctionnalités déjà consistantes ; en sommes, un terreau fertile pour aller loin !

Best language learning app yet.

I have tried genuinely everything for learning Japanese but Wagotabi has officially won my heart! Knowing both hiragana and katakana is pretty crucial, but once you’ve got that down, the game is incredibly fun and motivating. It doesn’t feel like a chore at all and I seriously recommend it for everyone, especially those who feel they’ve hit a dead end with their Japanese.

Wonderful app

This app is very awesome as it slowly replaces the English with Japanese. Awesome way to immerse yourself and interact with the language that doesn’t feel like studying and great for when you don’t feel like learning from books. Hopefully the devs add more content soon.🤞

Response from developer

Thank you! It took us years to experiment while developing Wagotabi and finding the right balance between learning, fun and immersion! We are regularly adding new towns and learning content. Our vision is to add much more content step by step. First covering N5 and then above. Please tell people around you about Wagotabi, this helps us a lot!
