Learn Japanese by living it. JLRPG Quest is a story RPG set in a cozy Japanese town, where every quest teaches words and phrases you'll really use: ordering food, shopping, finding your way and chatting with new friends. Start from zero. Finish reading real Japanese. NEW LOOK, NEW DOWNTOWN The whole game has a brand new look, and Downtown is the biggest area yet. Walk the plaza and meet new friends, shop five aisles at the supermarket, order at Happy Burger, and explore five floors of the Book Up! bookstore for grammar, vocabulary, verb and kanji card sets, plus picture books you can read and quiz yourself on. Take daily delivery jobs at Yamaneko and hunt down items all over town for yen and gifts. NEW: NIPPON POST BANK & ATM Your wallet has a limit, so open a bank account. Pass the teller's quiz to get your own cash card with your name on it, set a PIN, then use a real-style Japanese ATM to deposit, withdraw and check your balance. Learn the actual kanji and polite phrases on Japanese ATM screens, and watch out for those after-hours fees, just like in Japan! LEARN FROM ZERO • Hiragana and katakana with bite-sized lessons and challenges • Kanji with story cards on the Ema board • Practical vocabulary, grammar and everyday conversations • Listening and speaking scenes with voice clips • English support at first, then more and more Japanese as you improve A REAL RPG ADVENTURE • Story quests through schools, parks, a shrine, a pub, a friend's house and now downtown • Level up and manage HP, MP and stamina • Collect food, drinks, books and gifts inspired by real Japanese culture • Decorate My Room, pack your bag and show off your Hero ID card • A daily study desk with card practice, a daily gift and a stamp card for every day you study PASSES: GO FURTHER, FASTER Adventurer, Elite and God Mode passes are one-time purchases that make the whole adventure easier: • Higher max HP, MP and stamina • A bigger bag and a bigger wallet • A free yen gift every day • A bonus luggage package delivered to My Room • Your Hero ID card restyled in your pass colors Passes are optional extras that help support the game. BUILT FOR REAL PROGRESS Learn in context, not in isolated drills. Every location builds on what you learned before, so you always know the next step and never feel overwhelmed. Great for JLPT N5 beginners, travelers, anime fans and self-learners. Made with love in Tokyo by the makers of Hiragana Sensei, Katakana Sensei and Brunchy Cafe.
