I had supposedly sworn off Kickstarter because it is such a drain on my budget and I am trying to save for the impossible -- 3 trips to Japan in 3 years (I am crazy) -- but I had to pledge for Shadowrift. Not because I want the expansion (this game does not need to be harder), but because I want the base game.
Like Sara, I've flagged Japanese: The Game for a reminder. I know this is a weird thing for me to say, but the sample cards make it look too simple to teach me anything I don't already know, plus I think the backgrounds make the cards too busy for a serene learning experience. It seems to me if you want to teach grammar through a game, it would need to be app-based for flexibility. And then you could conjugate your verbs!
