About this game

Ever notice that kanji apps are SUPER complicated? Radicals. Kun'yomi. On'yomi. Paragraphs and paragraphs of text. For beginners and intermediate learners, it's a bit too much!

Cyber Kanji keeps it simple: see a kanji, hear a pronunciation, learn a meaning. Study in zen mode or race against the clock with techno music.

Be warned: A snarky Japanese-speaking sensei insults you mercilessly while you learn. がんばって!


GAME MODE
• Jam out to techno music while you race the clock.
• Gain more time with each correct answer and each game played.
• Claim your spot on the Worldwide Leaderboard, ranked by Highest Scores and Longest Streaks!

STUDY MODE
• Tap the kanji card to hear its pronunciation. Tap again to reveal the kana and translation.
• Star the words you've learned, shuffle the deck, and filter by level.
• Pro tip: tap the translation for extra definitions, example sentences, and related kanji from the online Jishoo dictionary.

AND MORE
• Game stats to track your progress over time.
• Lots of customizable settings: Light Mode / Dark Mode, Fonts, Sensei Mood, Haptic Feedback, and more.
• Optional: Sign in to save progress and sync across devices.

Made with love. Cyber Kanji has zero ads and will always be 100% free. (The only thing you can buy is a blinged-out キラキラ version of the in-game logo. Completely optional, but looks cool!)

Learn your first 10 kanji today — your future self in Tokyo will thank you.

P.S. While you're learning the kanji, come learn the kana and how to type on the Japanese 12-key flick keyboard with our sister app, Cyber Kana!
