I'm wondering if anyone has a link to a MS Windows game to review/learn kanji. The only thing I can find are a few games from 10+ years ago. Also, is there anything online?

Thanks!

Both iKnow and LinguaLift have a few of these.  Most of the newer kanji games are either mobile based or on pay websites though.

I have a Kanji typing game in the style of Letter Invaders for Web browsers at http://kanji.khakionion.com. I haven't added much in the way of fun features to it recently, but at the very least I try to add more words to it every now and then.

I might have to give one of the pay sites a try. I wouldn't mind paying a little if it would help out a lot. Actually, I am doing fine, pacing myself through Anki reviews and such. I just want to do something educationally fun, once in a while.

The "Letter Invaders" is a great idea. Would it be possible to create a version that had the Heisig keywords instead? It would be a big hit for those still in RTK 1.

Hey, that's very nice! You should definitely keep adding more words smile
