In the past couple weeks, I’ve switched Slay the Spire to my target language. Now even my most compulsively procrastinating time gives a little practice.
It’s not the greatest for intensive study (no audio, after all), but it’s a great way to ease in.
I already know most of it just from pictures and having played a lot, so it’s fun even if I’m not being a great learner
Quite a few cards, items, or events show up just seldom enough that I do still need to read them
There are tons of words I don’t know, many of them at the top of the card showing a picture of the thing
Lots of repetition, so my brain gets the redundant exposure it needs
And besides that specific instance, I’m getting more confident overall. To the point where I feel like I won’t be totally missing out on games if I try to play them in Japanese.
That sounds impressive! Give playing in japanese a try maybe? I’ve noticed I really enjoy being sometimes thrown into the deep end and not understanding everything. It motivates me to learn even more if I don’t understand but I want to :)
