Koe is a JRPG game that takes everything about Japan and the language to the very core.

It's going to be available on the PS Vita, PC, and they are hoping to also get it on the WII-U.

Essentially, it's going to take place in the country in various settings while the battle system is a traditional Turn Base Battle like you would see in a Pokemon game or final fantasy, but with a twist. Instead of conventional weapons, your attacks depend on the flash cards you use. They also introduce words and characters in a way that's meant to ease you into the language to help keep in stuck in your mind. The game encourages learning and remembering new words and rewards you for it as far as I know.

In a nutshell, it's if you turn the rosetta stone into a video game that gives improved results along with entertainment value.

Here's a link to the kickstarter:

Anyway, there's a goomba that will be able to explain it better than me:

A Japanese RPG learning game...just what I was already working on myself...funny that. Heck, I was just telling Carrot about the idea this last week! Not as drawn out as this one though. Still prefer my own though, since I know the best way to teach myself.
