Meh

Not that great

Free play is a lie

Once you’ve unlocked all the skills available in the free version, you can’t proceed any further. You get locked on the skill tree and can only spend your points to continue. But if all the free skills have been acquired, the only option is to pay. You can’t progress without spending skill points.

Ran into issues with definitions of some words

Not that they're necessarily wrong, but the definitions were worded poorly. I'm about N2 level and got some very simple words wrong due to this. Therefore I don't find this a very effective way to study right now and don't see why it's premium only. The way the game plays though is rather fun for a kanji game.

Premium isn’t optional

After playing for about ten minutes (barely past the tutorial), I reached a point where I can’t make any progress or go back without spending a skill point, and the only available cards are premium cards. It was fun up to this point and I was looking forward to playing more, but I have no interest in premium and cannot continue playing. Please implement a way to progress without using skill points or be honest about the app costing money up front.

Awful

Terrible app with cheesy awful music.

Buggy and only a trial version

After a short while the game locks you on a screen and the only option is to pay for premium. You can’t go back and you can’t go forward unless you pay. Also, in the time I could play, the game was stuck doing the tutorial over and over and so could only really practice the kanji for a few numbers. Not worth the download time.
