Reviews: What People Think About Wagotabi: Learn Japanese

I really this app, as I have learned a lot of japanese with it. It really forces you learn before you can progress. The recent update seems to want to force you to use the flick keyboard which is fine for some people but I don’t like it. I wish there was an option to disable it. Also it would be nice if there was full keyboard support, as the game still requires you to touch the screen or use a game controller to advance to the next screen when learning, smart test or doing the boss fights. You can’t even select the smart test without touching the screen or using a controller. Maybe use arrow keys to select the menu items or let me use the virtual mouse from the keyboard.
edit: Thank you for responding. Creating a virtual mouse for the keyboard is an option, but not really the best option. I hope that one day I can play the game completely from a keyboard without having to use a game pad or a virtual mouse.
Also, is there a way to delete individual saves? sometimes I want to start over to really reinforce the learning. Thank you.

This is one of the first Japanese learning games that I find myself actually WANTING to stay with. The learning aspect feels very smooth, and I adore the fact that it doesn’t bring in romanji as its starting learner of the Japanese alphabet/vocab like so many other apps do, and instead balances moving in Japanese as you progress through the game and lessons the amount of English that is used in conversation. That I feel like is truly learning by immersing yourself into the language. It’s a cute game that has a feeling almost similar to Pokémon where you battle by learning more Japanese, collect Kanji in your Kanjidex, and travel all across the lands of Japan. It’s really neat that it makes itself unique by having the world exploration mimicking the actual locations of Japan through the game play and allows its players to take note of those real locations and maybe even pique further curiosity and excitement into wanting to travel to Japan to visit those exact locations. Keep going developers and all those who have brought this creation to life! Ya’ll are doing amazing!!

THEY MUST MAKE THIS TYPE OF GAME FOR ALL LANGUAGES! I have been studying Japanese for 6 months everyday. I wish I just started with this… this is by far more interesting and challenging than other apps. I have tried everything trust me. I have spent $500+ on apps and books… I’ve been looking for something like this to incorporate in my learning, but I wish I started this in the beginning. One of the hardest things for me to learn is not the vocabulary but the sentence structures and particles. English speaking people should start with it and this game does that! I am really beating myself up that I just went to Reddit where a user said they used this app and it dramatically helped them. Just checked it out today and I have not been able to put the game down for hours. $6 is very worth everything… no ads, no subscription, it feels like a classic Pokémon game and I can’t get enough.
