Does not provide the same level of interactive explanation and hints as Duolingo. Does not focus on the most common scenarios such as ordering food etc. Does not provide any mnemonics for remembering kanji :(

Very well structured and WAY better than Duolingo. Edit: So I wasn't expecting the developer to actually reply haha. I reviewed it quickly. I was a Cryptologic Language Analyst in the military and just got out. I love learning languages, I actually just told my buddy about this game today and he is downloading it when he gets off of work. I was telling him how if they had this when I went through training that I would have taken the time to play this even with the limited time I had back then!
