Pros and cons of 目覚まし漢字 app for iPhone and iPad

目覚まし漢字 app good for

Its like a morning jog without actually having to get up! Nice!
Its a relatively simple game - find the kanji that doesnt match the rest. Its a great way to exercise your mind and see how high a level you can get to. You do not need to be able to read kanji to play - simply being able to spot the different character is all that is required. Great app!

Some bad moments

Not a bad memory game. If youre studying kanji, this will reinforce what you know. Author misspelled alarm though.
If youre looking for a kanji practice game, dont waste your $.99. You dont need to know much about kanji to find the odd kanji in the group. And I dont even really understand what the alarm is for - to remind yourself to play? It isnt to set the time of how long you wish to play the game - the timer to get through as many pages of kanji as possible is set to 1 minute. It doesnt matter what level you make it to because it wont save your score, giving you little incentive to do better.
