This week\u2019s Kickstarter pick of the week is Japanese: The Game<\/a>. Japanese: The Game is a language learning card game brought to us by Bernard Hamaker.<\/p>\n

Bernard lived in Japan, and finally managed to learn the language. Once he returned to the states he found that the systems that could be purchased were expense as well as aimed as teaching singularly. He took up the quest 6 years ago to come up with a new system that would allow people to learn with friends, or alone as well as much less cost prohibitive, allowing more people to learn the language with greater ease.<\/p>\n

Japanese: the Game is the result of that six year project. It is a live-action version of Mad Libs which can be played either: solo, cooperatively or competitively. There will be expansions and Bernard has already made one using Japanese food.<\/p>\n

Here’s a quick preview:<\/p>\n
