Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 2.29/day in the week to Aug 16 → 6.71/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,402 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Pretty good for just having fun with the language not a complete replacement for study buy if you enjoy it will still help
As an N3 learner, I have no idea what I'm getting myself into. The first session went smoothly with pretty basic vocab/kanji/grammar points covered, though I did learn something new which is that a place called Sanuki exists. I'm not expecting this to be much more than a cute, maintenance tool, but I did love the aesthetic of it all. It even recommended me to take a break after learning a handful of words, which I think is pretty efficient. Definitely go for it if you're more of a beginner, or if you just want to chill while revising some kana/kanji.

I'm starting as I approach N5 from self study. I wish I had started this much earlier. As learning goes, it is great to combine with some other formal sources of study. As a game, it makes the learning of Japanese a lot more fun.
Отличная игра, с которой учить японский действительно просто и увлекательно.
I have been trying for nearly two decades to grasp even the first level of Japanese. I've tried books. I tried CDs of Japanese language learning in the early 2000s. I've tried Duolingo. None of them helped me get a basic understanding of sentence structure or helped me remember kana enough to reliably read or sound out words. This helped me do all that in about five hours of gameplay. I'm in disbelief that I'm actually reading even very basic Japanese. I can not conceive of where I might be in my journey at the ten hour mark. If you've always wanted to learn Japanese, go get this game now! If you're ADHD like me and you struggle with having the attention span to sit down and memorize things, this is really easy to pick up and put back down in small chucks. You can go in to practice kana, make progress on the game, or play the learning mini-games. It has a lot of variety and I definitely recommend it!

Good for beginners and intermediate practitioners who can read kana. Helps with vocab, grammar and sentence structure at a beginner and intermediate level. Makes learning a bit more interesting and the devs are always adding more and fixing errors,
Еще немного и японцы примут за自分の仲間だと思われる
You get パワハラ'd not even one hour into the game, it's incredible work. Jokes aside, this game rekindled my learning of Japanese, helping me finally make the step from Hiragana-Katakana stagnation to taking on the ever-intimidating Kanji. It does a great job of steadily introducing new elements (grammar, kanji, useful phrases etc.), letting you settle into it, and testing you before repeating. Almost all of the dialogue and UI elements are in Japanese (even the hints for when you get stuck are in Japanese), and it's a fantastic execution of immersion learning. To those who are thinking about buying the game I highly suggest learning and mastering at least Hiragana prior to playing, as it's the foundation of the very language itself, so knowing it well beforehand will make for a much smoother ride. Without even noticing, the game had both taught me over 100 kanji, and all the different particles started falling into place almost like on their own. Now I'm continuing study on my own (=watching anime and understanding it!) with Anki and Yomitan. This is a fantastic stepping stone for Japanese beginners! このゲームはすばらしいですよ!デベロッパーのみなさん、本当にありがとうございます。
