Ever wanted to learn Japanese, but the textbooks were just too dry for you to slog through all the characters? KanaRunner lets you learn the entire Hiragana syllabary while fighting Ninjas and racking up high scores!

I made this game because I’ve met many people who’d started studying Japanese, only to lose steam and stop. That’s why I’m currently experimenting with different ways to teach Japanese in a more fun, gamified way and this game is one part of that.

So try it out and let me know what you think!
