Koe (声)
In Koe (声) you are sent to Japan as a high school exchange student. Make friends, learn the language and spend time with your homestay family during your time in the rural city of Sakurachou.
Eventually you’ll realize this small Japanese city is harbouring a certain peculiarity in its shrine, you’ll be transformed and sent on your way to Koe- a world full of cities, caves, shrine, battles along with new friends where your words will be your most powerful weapon.
Using your army of Japanese words you’ll be able to attack, defend, heal and grind your way through the vast overworld, while returning to Sakuracho to learn the words you need to strengthen your arsenal. With your friends, will you be able to uncover the mystery of the princess Fleur and her family?
KEY FEATURES
Koe (声) is a narrative driven JRPG-inspired language learning game that aims to introduce the player to the Japanese language over the length of a modern and full RPG. Designed and developed by a team based between Japan, USA, and the UK, Koe (声) is an ongoing development to create a truly unique language learning experience.
A collusion of a rural Japanese city with the fantasy world of Koe is the setting of your journey. As you begin your travels you will find yourself at an airport at the beginning of the game, and will soon travel to your home to the town of Sakurachou. Here you will learn about living in Japan, learning the language and meet a variety of locals along the way. Some native, some from another world.
Your weapon of choice will be the Japanese language itself. By leveling the individual Kana, the building blocks of the Japanese language, you will be taught how to use the language to your advantage in battle as you uncover the secrets of the princess Fleur and the world of Koe.
As words become items, they become your arsenal in your fight against the corruption that threatens Koe. You’ll need to learn as much as you can in Sakurachou in order to strengthen the Kana power you have gained, and explore the two worlds to gain as much knowledge as possible.
Let’s Learn Japanese! Kanji Sudoku
Special interest for players of Sudoku who also would like to learn counting in Japanese, as well as recognizing the Kanji characters for the numbers (though you can switch to Arabic numerals as well). The game does provide a decent range of difficulty levels of Sudoku, however the language learning aspect is very basic, and doesn’t go beyond that of counting, and a few phrases played whenever you enter the game or complete a level. Perhaps a method for absolute beginners to Japanese language, but this game will mostly be enjoyable for Sudoku players - though how it ranks with other versions of Sudoku, I’m not able to say, as admittedly I haven’t played a lot of Sudoku personally. Glad to have the opportunity to play some more Sudoku, and it is good for a bit of brain exercising too!

Distant Memoraĵo
I can’t say it’s the best among all the Yuri game i have played, but it is indeed the mostly anticipated. The characters are so cute.
– Real player with 28.9 hrs in game
Distant Memoraĵo presents a dramatic story between Rin and Ruka and a heart-warming past between Ruka and Rei. The beautiful element of The Expression Amrilato series in its narrative is the language barrier that exists to separate Rin from Ruka while highlighting Rin’s homesickness from time to time. Although, you might feel disappointed with the lack of Juliamo lessons which has been one of the main features of the previous installment. Nevertheless, Distant Memoraĵo has beautifully emphasized Rin and Rei’s emotions by putting Ruka as their common interests.

Ohayou! Beginner’s Japanese
Very good game! A good way to get started with the basics of the Hiragana and Katakana alphabet. Comes with flashcards with playable pronunciation. Nice choice of options to learn with romaji or sounds. Would recommend for a beginner.;
– Real player with 5.4 hrs in game
Gameplay
The game offers you virtual study cards of each katakana and hiragana where you can check the pronunciations and how to write them.
Apart from “study cards”, there are 2 mini games where you have to either match the japanese letter card to either its sound or its written pronunciation (か = ka, etc.). Beside this, there isn’t much to this “game”.
Sound
Some katakana and hiragana pronunciations were kind of weird. The letters that had “a” and “o” sounded too similar for no good reason and some others like “he” and “ho” were voiced in a way lower volume and from what it seemed to be a different person.

Nice flashcard game/app. Didn’t run into any issues or errors from what I played.
Had stroke order, pronunciation, and a meaning for each character. Obviously this means it’s not overly comprehensive (you can’t practice speaking or writing in app either) but it works.

Learn Japanese To Survive! Hiragana Battle
Video Review: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_r8lC0TTLAE
Japan produces some pretty cool stuff. Some of the best games of the last few decades have been either first released in Japan or exclusively released in Japan. A lot of the times, nice folks who know the Japanese language will translate Japanese games so that we can enjoy them to their fullest. However, that may take a while, if it ever happens at all. Besides, self-reliance is an underrated thing. Now, if you’re a chowderhead like me, then you only know one language, and that’s ‘murcan. But what if you want to broaden your horizons? You could take a Japanese course at school. But only if your school offers it, and if it’s a college course, you may be spending quite a bit of money on the course and books. You could buy Rosetta Stone, but that could cost you up to $200. I don’t know about you, but I’m not a great learner in the normal classroom setting. I’ve tried games before like My Japanese Coach, but I was bored and frustrated soon after starting. I’ve always wanted to learn Japanese, but have never found a way that works for me.

This is a really fun way of putting your lessons of Hiragana to the test.
One thing I do recomend is not using this game alone. This game is no substetute for a real Sensei ;)
Tools I’d recomend. A chart of all Hiragana characters and a small drywipe board for writing practice.
Pracice writing the characters without the game And without looking at your printed chart, then play this game to test how well you’ve done.
If you’re just looking for a gaming experance, then I’m getting my critic hat on so hold tight.

Let’s Learn Korean! Hangul
This game fucking pisses me off. It made me redo the match 3 multiple times even though i passed it with 100 percent, I click advance then it just puts me back to the map of korea with no new level unlocked. Has happened multiple fucking times and im getting fucking heated.
Good for learning korean negative part is same bullshit minigames. And it doesn’t even review the past characters you have learned to check your memorization bullshit game. Though I do recommend this.
– Real player with 12.8 hrs in game
If you’re a certified dummy like me and nothing else helped you learn Hangul, THEN BUY THIS GAME. TRUST ME.
I will admit it, I am no good at learning new things. Especially languages. I downloaded app after app and purchased a few books on how to learn Hangul. Every source said you can learn Hangul in about an hour. I still couldn’t learn it!!! So for a last hail mary I decided to buy this and hope for the best. OMG this helped me learn Hangul so fast it’s almost crazy. I am super surprised at how beginner friendly this game is. It almost makes me regret spending so much money on trying to learn Hangul before.

This is fantastic! Initially I thought this game was only going to be for English learners and kids. But its actually a great point-and-click adventure game for anyone who enjoys that genre. I got it for my mother to play because she’s been trying to brush up on her English. But I very quickly found myself invested in the puzzles and story. If you’re looking for a good quality adventure game with some challenging scenarios then I can highly recommend it.

Love Language Japanese
This game is the hub around which all my other Japanese learning resources revolve. I have apps, books, websites, but progressing through Love Language Japanese is my main objective.
! You play the role of a foreign student who lied on his application to get admitted to a prestigious Japanese school. His lie is found out, but they let him stay on the condition that he passes weekly tests. If you fail a single test, you are expelled from the school and it’s game over. Helpful hint: save your game right before each test. That way if you flunk out, you can easily get back to it to retake the test. It’s kind of like a harem game because there is only one other male character. The women at the school make the game fun and interesting. I did fail one test and got expelled. After that I buckled down and studied my other resources, then came back at a save point before the test and passed it. I’m developing a crush on one of the girls. She may be waifu material for me. The lessons are just right: not too hard and not too easy. You do have to be serious about learning Japanese to enjoy this game. I recommend you get supplemental resources to help you learn your hiragana and katakana. There are two things I don’t like: 1) When I go into settings to turn down the background music so I can listen to pronunciation, the change in the setting doesn’t stay. So I have to turn the music down every time I use the program. 2) Everything is timed. That is understandable for tests, but exercises are also timed. That is counterproductive because I need time to figure things out sometimes. Those minuses aside, I highly recommend Love Language Japanese for the serious weeb or learner of Japanese.

Hello Everyone,
This review will be covering developer Papurika Moe’s first published title, “Love Language Japanese”. In this game, players will have the chance to learn the basic aspects of the Hiragana and Katakana writing systems, along with some rudimentary sentence phrases. With that being said, let’s get this review underway. Hope you enjoy
In the words of our best friend Max “Break a Leg”.
Love Language Japanese Is a visual novel style dating simulator that is focused on teaching the player the basic function of the Hiragana and Katakana writing systems. The game does this by enrolling the player into a twelve-week Japanese course where the player will learn the basic Hiragana/Katakana characters and some basic word/phrases in Japanese. During the first three weeks players will learn the 46 Basic Hiragana and Katakana characters; along with their alternate dakuon (20 characters), and handakuon (5 character) forms). To make things simple, you will learn 142 characters by week 3 in the game. From there, the remaining 9 weeks were spent learning numbers, how to tell time, rudimentary sentence congregation, customary pleasantries, how to ask for directions, how to state your likes/dislikes, and how to give a retelling of daily events. The game gives the player several opportunities to practice with the various materials that you learn through out to course of the game, which is always a nice edition to games that focus on teaching the player a new language.
