More about Shujinkou

Shujinkou is a story-driven, turn-based dungeon crawler where players learn Japanese as they progress. The game follows a retired samurai, an eccentric fox, and a princess fighting language-devouring "Akuma" across 16 handcrafted labyrinths. Players can master thousands of Japanese words, phrases, kana, kanji, and grammar from JLPT N5 to N1 levels through optional language learning mechanics. The experience includes 80+ hour story campaigns, 300+ enemies, 180 traditional skills, and 42 story quests. Language learning is fully optional with English UI swaps available at any time.
