You want to learn Japanese? She is already running.

Every ink alien carries a kanji it stole. Mid-run, a question opens: the meaning, the reading or the right kanji. Pick the answer and your brush cuts the alien down. Miss, and that kanji comes back until you know it.

Run across Japan and take the kanji back

Ink aliens tear kanji off the street signs and right out of your memory. Chase them through neighbourhoods across Japan, in every season, in rain, snow and night.

From your first kanji to N1, and beyond

Start with hiragana, katakana and your first ten kanji. Keep going through themed zones (nature, time, the city, the mind) then the full JLPT N5–N1 (Japan's proficiency test), Jōyō (everyday kanji) and Kanken (kanji certification) lists: every kanji you can be tested on, and thousands beyond.

Play solo, or online co-op for up to 8

In co-op, every player gets their own questions, picked for the kanji they are learning. A beginner and an N1 veteran play the same match, and every right answer counts the same for the team. Short on friends? Empty seats fill automatically, so a match always starts.

Run in your own style

Make your own runner in the character creator: hair, face, eyes and outfits. Then style your run with trails, auras, strikes, pets and frames for your avatar.

Reclaim the city together

Every kanji any player reclaims during a season fills one shared board. Fill it together, and everyone keeps that season's cosmetics.

So what are you waiting for?

People learning Japanese from all over the world meet in the Hub between runs. Show off your look, dance together, team up for a match, then head back out and reclaim the city. Grab your brush and run with them.
