Learn Japanese to Survive! Hiragana Battle Review (ChubbyCthulhuwu)
I played through this game alongside textbook-based self-learning. Memorization and study requires repetition and I found this to be a useful tool in entertaining me and keeping my attention while drilling hiragana into my head. I have a lot more confidence in recognizing hiragana at a glance now. Overall the game did exactly what I wanted it to, and I got it on a great sale. It's an education tool, and I found it an effective one for a reasonable price.
Perhaps my biggest critique is that the battle "groups" are not randomized as much as I wish they were. The same sets appeared in the same order several times in a row, especially with the ya, yu, yo and wa, wo, n sets. I was fighting the same battles with the same commands queued up too many times. I would have liked to see more randomization in how the hiragana spawned into fights.
