This is really neat and underrated! If you like Wordle then this is a fun way to practice some Japanese. Functional but also beautiful.

You can play without any knowledge of the language, simply learning new words through the levels, or you can practice by recalling familiar words and using them as attempts. I find it a very useful app.
