Through YouTube I discovered a game called たのしくおもしろく漢検小学生. Unfortunately it was only released for the Nintendo 3DS. What are other games like this released for modern consoles?
I’ve bought もじぴったんアンコ-ル, but I am not confident about my vocabulary to play it yet.
Are there other good Japanese games for kids to build their vocabulary and kanji knowledge?
Keep in mind that games (and other content) for native kids will assume that you can understand the spoken language to a large degree and will therefore not hesitate to throw all sorts of not-so-trivial vocab and grammar at you as long as it’s written phonetically.
I actually find some of the stuff aimed at kids harder for me to understand than your average novel, because novels use a normal amount of kanji and adult-oriented vocab.
At any rate there are kanji training games on the Nintendo Switch and many other platforms. For instance:
(I don’t endorse this particular game, it just came up first in a random search for Switch kanji practice).
