The ‘game’ is simple - from the given cue, spell out the target word in kanji or hiragana, depending on the currently selected mode.

If the player taps a wrong tile, they are shown the correct character in the cue area, which they should then find in the grid. (If a player simply doesn’t know the answer they can tap a random tile to be shown the next target character). In both these cases the target word will be rated down one level (e.g. from yellow to orange).

In single cue modes (i.e. just a ‘meaning’ or ‘kana’/’kanji’ cue), you can tap the ‘Hint’ button to see the other cue - but the item rating will also go down in this case. (the easiest mode therefore is the ‘Both’ cues mode).

N.B with the 'Item Progress Rating System' all items start at a yellow rating. They get rated up one level if gotten correct without any hints or mistakes, otherwise they are rated down one level. If items are rated green they are considered known and do not appear in the game again. If an item is red, it means it has been gotten wrong several times, so it is presented again in the very next game. Yellow or orange items are presented in random order.
