Kanji no Owari 「漢字の終わり」, also known as "The Kanji's End", is a Japanese language learning anime game that helps the players in memorizing Hiragana(平仮名), Katakana(片仮名), and JLPT Joyo (general use) Kanji characters「常用漢字」.
=== Gameplay ===
1. Pick your character class, gear up, and head to the world map!
2. Choose among 5 stages which represents the different levels of JLPT Joyo Kanji「常用漢字」.
3. Set your game mode and preferences, then tap Start!
4. Choose the correct answer to slay enemies, otherwise your character will take damage!
5. And finally, defeat the boss at the end of the stage. Good luck!
6. Buy items, upgrade your equipment from the gold you've gained as you wish.
Pretty simple, isn't it?
We believe with the help of RPG / JRPG-esque gameplay, players can learn Japanese in a much more fun way!
