Kotoba Forest turns Japanese vocabulary study into a forest-building game. Start with a 20-question diagnostic, choose a JLPT N5–N1 goal, then plant and water words with spaced repetition. Learn 10,000 words with native audio, example sentences, mock tests, weakness drills, and animal mini-games. Available on iOS and Android with interfaces in English, Traditional and Simplified Chinese, Korean, Thai, Vietnamese, and Indonesian.
Hi Product Hunt! I built Kotoba Forest after seeing how easy it is to start learning Japanese—and how hard it is to keep reviewing vocabulary after the first week. I wanted every review to leave something visible behind.
In Kotoba Forest, words become seeds. You begin with a 20-question diagnostic, choose a JLPT goal, then use spaced repetition to plant and water a personal forest. The app covers 10,000 JLPT N5–N1 words, with native audio, mock exams, weakness drills, and animal mini-games. It supports seven interface languages on iOS and Android.
I’d especially love feedback on the first-session experience: does the diagnostic make the next step clear, and does the forest give you a reason to return tomorrow? Thanks for trying it!
