Wagotabi is a fun rpg style of learning Japanese.

You travel between prefectures, get exposed to japanese culture and defeat masters in different castles.

It's a good accessory for reading and writing practice. It teachers you the language and vocab as you go.

It's very much a normal rpg but centred around japanese. You have to remember your conversations with NPCs and remember whats important. E.g. you might have a quest where youre asked where tanaka lives, then give this book to him. Or you might have a time trial mini game where you have to read a small book and talk with chatacters about it.

There are inbuilt lessons, quizzes and study resources that you can unlock.

I thought it was easy at first but it quickly became a suitable level for learning. In hindsight I realised that depending on who you talk to and who talks to you the appropriate level of politeness is used.

The most useful part of the game is being forced to and interpret, recall japanese. Not all the quests or puzzles are explicit you have to understand the language to know what to do next and you have to recall the correct ideas to progress.

It does cost money. Where I live it costs half as much as a big mac.
