Read full description

KINRAKU is a visual-first educational app for microbiology, infection dynamics, and evolution. The 13th installment in the SUUGAKU / BUTURAKU / DENRAKU / HARAKU / NETURAKU / SEIRAKU / KORAKU / RYORAKU / RYURAKU / KAKURAKU / KIKARAKU / KAGAKU series. This time the theme is "microbes, infection, and evolution." Twelve core topics from high-school to introductory-university biology, all delivered through beautiful simulations and hands-on interaction. [12 Features] - Microbe Atlas 17 species across Bacteria, Archaea, Eukarya, and Viruses. Tap any card for shape, size, habitat, and role. - Cell Structure Cross-sections of all three domains. Bacterial nucleoid, plasmids, and flagellum; archaeal S-layer and ether-linked membrane; eukaryotic nucleus, mitochondria, ER, and vacuole — all labeled. - Cell Division Binary fission, budding, and sporulation animated through one full cycle. Watch N(t) = N₀ · 2^(t/g) climb as you tune the generation time. - Petri Dish Tap to inoculate three different microbes. Adjust nutrient, temperature, and pH to see colony growth shift and species compete where they meet. - Biofilm Planktonic cells attach to a surface and secrete an EPS matrix to build a 3D community. Watch the four stages — attachment, microcolony, maturation, dispersal — plus quorum-sensing switching and the high drug resistance inside the matrix. Tune attachment and growth rates. - Chemotaxis Bacteria swim toward nutrients (attractants) and away from toxins (repellents) via run-and-tumble. Move the source with a tap or drag and watch the population climb the gradient and aggregate. Tune cell count, sensitivity, and swim speed. - Fermentation Switch between lactic acid bacteria, yeast, and koji mold. Watch the substrate fall and products (lactate / ethanol / CO₂ / enzymes) accumulate, with live pH readout. - SIR Simulator 180 agents wander and infect each other. Real-time epidemic curve, live S/I/R/V counts, and the basic reproduction number R₀. Sliders for β, γ, mobility, and vaccination dramatically reshape outbreaks. - World Map Metapopulation SIR over 7 Japanese regions, coupled by travel. Press lockdown to halt cross-region transmission; apply vaccination and observe herd-immunity effects. - Immune System Macrophages follow chemotactic gradients, chase pathogens, and engulf them. Tilt the balance between immune count and pathogen growth and watch infection establish or clear. - Resistance Evolution Three sliders: antibiotic concentration, mutation rate, growth rate. Apply pressure and watch susceptible cells die while rare resistant mutants take over — the resistance histogram shifts right as evolution unfolds. - Tree of Life The full tree from LUCA to the three domains and major clades. Pinch to zoom across billions of years of evolution. [Highlights] - Formula reference sheet on every screen - Live dynamics for SIR, logistic growth, and selection - Japanese / English support - Dark mode / Light mode - Clean, intuitive UI - Only a small banner ad at the bottom [Recommended for] - High-school biology and university microbiology / public-health students - Anyone wanting to intuitively grasp epidemic models and antibiotic resistance - Teachers looking for interactive teaching materials - Anyone curious about how life evolved at the microscopic scale

SQL Quiz Drills

■ No engine required. Run SELECT in your head. SQLのエ is an iPhone app for practicing SQL in spare moments. Browser-based SQL playgrounds require sitting down at a PC; this app trades the engine for high-density questions, building real SQL skill through quick quizzes, repetition, and clear progress. ■ Who it's for - New engineers who want SQL at their fingertips - Analysts who need to read the SQL behind BI tools - Anyone preparing for database/IT certification exams - People who write SQL "by feel" and want to truly understand it ■ SQL-focused question formats - Four-choice (fundamentals): quickly check syntax and terms - Result-table prediction: guess the output from a table + query (our signature format) - Fill-in-the-blank: memorize keywords - True/False: check knowledge with rhythm ■ Learning modes - Chapter training: basics through SELECT, WHERE, sorting, aggregates, GROUP BY, JOIN, subqueries, set operations - Test: no explanations, just a score - Oni (hard) training: 10 seconds per question, combos for streaks - Daily 5: a fresh hand-picked set each day ■ Built to keep you going - Streak (consecutive study days) - Total queries solved and overall accuracy - Per-chapter accuracy heatmap - Achievement badges ■ Readable by design - Dark theme with SQL syntax highlighting and monospaced font - Clear result-table display ■ Privacy-first - No account, no ads - Works fully offline - Learning data stays on your device (never sent out) "10 questions a day. Run SELECT in your head." Make SQL a habit, starting today. Note: The app does not execute real SQL. To try queries for real, use the external links (e.g., DB Fiddle) in Settings.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: SQL Quiz Drills at none against KINRAKU's shown. KINRAKU's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
