Kanji Detective
A daily kanji puzzle for Japanese learners.
Crack a new case every day
Every day there's one hidden kanji, the same for every detective around the world. Type a kanji, a reading or an English meaning to question a suspect. Every wrong guess uncovers another clue, from stroke count and components to example words, sentences and readings.
Once the case is closed, open its case file to study the kanji: meanings, readings, an animated stroke order, example words and real example sentences.
Free and Plus
- Daily case: one kanji a day from JLPT N5–N3, free.
- Kanji Detective Plus: a one-time purchase that adds a harder daily cold case at N2–N1 and unlimited training at the levels you choose.
