Overall it's a cute experience... But there's an actual educational element to it I like it learning beginner and it's easy enough to understand what he wants I'm not able to do the roller coaster game all that well. For a child it might be just a little bit more difficult if Japanese isn't their first language and they're not around it that often mainly because the character doesn't speak any English to give any indication of what he actually wants you have to literally listen for what he wants
It's really great for my child learning Japanese but would be even better if you could release a Katakana version too!! Yoroshiku onegaishimasu!
I feel like this game is meant for learning hiragana more than anything. It would be great it the games had English instructions. Btw, for the roller coaster game, pick the word that starts with the ending of the last word. It took some trial and error for me to figure out how that one worked. I would say this game is more for kids who can understand Japanese but are learning to write.
Idiotic, school-like approach to language learning. Way to complicated and disorienting for a child. The purpose of most exercises is unclear, at best.
