Reviews for Wagotabi: Learn Japanese

This app is incredible! If you are looking for a way to read and practice Japanese in varying contexts, you are going to want to check out this one! With 2 years spent living in Japan and feeling like I never reached fluency especially with reading due to the barrier of Kanji, this game has completely rekindled my desire to tackle Japanese and I feel that I am actually improving! I will be sharing this with my friends and family!

Amazing game to learn japanese. Beforehand I started learning with Duolingo and felt like "yeah I got this!". After switching to wagotabi I felt like "nope, I actually don't". I love how my understanding and ability to speak japanese has improved so much with this one. And I love how they implemented it so naturally in a game. Huge recommendation

This game is really amazing and cute. The pacing is really good sometimes i feel like I am learning a lot of complicate word and kanji but since I see them so often in the dialogues and exercise it dosent feel hard at all. I surprise myself with how much content I manage to memorize this way compared to what I learn with other video games or mangas. Normally I need to stop studying after about 30 minutes to 1 hour but I can do about 2 hours per session with this game.

I don't write reviews often, but I needed to thank the developers. As a self-taught learner I was having such a hard time with the alphabets. I felt like I was never going to be able to read or write, and I had tried several apps without success. This game is really engaging, and the fact that you are learning the symbols in context has made such a huge difference. Today I read and wrote my first sentence without any romaji help. You gave me back the hope that I can tackle this. Thanks!❤️🥹

The ultimate tool for learning Japanese. it doesn't get any better than this! You're constantly engaged in its learning process while having fun gameplay, which makes learning Japanese more natural and easier. This is how you should learn languages. This game made me able to actually understand Japanese people speak while watching YouTube videos in Japanese! Sugoi desu!

Absolutely LOVE this language game/app! A must play for anyone interested in starting their Japanese language journey. Perfect blend of learning and enough fun to keep you motivated to keep progressing. SRS system to help retain what you've learned and slowly weens you off english having instructions and hints in the japanese that you've learned with minigames to help further reinforce. Also learning more about Japanese geography and places of interest! Can't wait for more content to be added!!

The game is easy to understand! They teach the basics of communication, not just vocabulary. I've been studying Japanese for roughly 5 months & the immersion is amazing! I definitely have a better understanding of sentence structure & truly feel more confident in learning Japanese. Anyone who learned Hiragana should play this game to study next.

Wagotabi is like nothing I've ever played before! Not only was I able to learn Japanese verbs that always caused me trouble, but I was able to easily level up my Japanese reading ability, something that used to cause me stress! The sheer joy of walking around a mini version of Japan and interacting with all sorts of characters, doing quests and finding secrets, without realizing sometimes that I was using Japanese has been beyond anything I could have hoped or imagined! I can't wait for more! ❤️

I'm currently working on n3, and honestly, this is the best app I've found so far! This is the only game style learning app that is truly a game. You learn through quests and encounters, and there's ample opportunities for review! Highly recommend for any rpg lovers! Currently, only n5 with n4 coming soon, but I hope they get enough support to go on to more advanced material.

First of all, CUTE AF! I've been trying to learn Japanese for a while and have been to Japan several times. I'm a huge fan of gamifying things and this is right up my alley. I took a 4 week online course before but this is so much better because I can take my time and really absorb what I'm learning. Even though I'm starting being able to read hiragana, katakana and maybe 3 kanji, I'm still going through and not skipping around because it's just so fun!
