Similar Kanji Cafe
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
Introduction
A simple educational game aimed at solving a problem people often have when learning Japanese Kanji: mixing up visually similar characters. For users of WaniKani, you can set your level in settings, so you'll only see Kanji up to your level!
Made over a weekend jam with https://twitter.com/samfilstrup using LöVE (https://love2d.org)
How To Play
- Choose a mode
- On: The 'On' reading mode checks your understanding of the 'On' reading for a particular Kanji, coming from the original Chinese reading.
- Kun: The 'Kun' reading mode checks your understanding of the 'Kun' reading, the Japanese reading of the word.
- Meaning: The meaning mode checks your understanding of the meaning of the kanji.
- Choose the right answer using left or right arrow keys
- The quicker you choose, the more score multiplier you get (if you are correct!). Too many mistakes and you lose.
