How to Play Nihonshi DS
Quick start
Choose a chapter or question group. Listen to its question and answer, try selection practice and then the writing step. Check a difficult term in the glossary, mark it for review and return to the questions.
Controls
Use the stylus for menus, answer choices and writing fields. Follow the audio controls to repeat a prompt and check recognized handwriting before confirming. Switch glossary order through its displayed options when looking for a term.
Nihonshi DS — About this game
Practise Japanese history with a glossary, short questions and date memorisation. The question section uses a three-step path: listen to the question and answer, choose an answer, then try writing it. Related terms connect a missed fact to the glossary, which can be browsed by chapter or Japanese syllabary order. Begin with a small historical section, hear its prompts and attempt the choices before writing from memory; check related names and events rather than remembering an isolated word without its context.
