Nihongo Journey Learn Japanese by living Japan
A free mobile game: you land at Narita and every mission is a real situation — immigration, a Suica top-up, ordering ramen, a wrong order, a job interview. Scripted conversations, no lives to buy, and your progress follows you from phone to laptop.
How it works
A journey, not a syllabus
Five worlds from arrival to advanced Japan. Each location is a place you will really stand in; each mission is one thing you will really have to say.
Eight ways to answer
Pick a reply, build the sentence, type it in romaji or kana, catch it by ear, match, read a real sign or menu, beat the clock — and clear the boss.
Review what you missed
Every word you learn and every step you miss comes back at the right time. A daily target, a streak, weekly ranking — and a dashboard that shows your weak spots honestly.
