What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We are building Automatic Language Learning alongside our players. Early Access allows us to:

Fine-tune balance & pacing

Incorporate player suggestions directly

Your feedback helps shape the most relaxing, satisfying way to acquire a new language.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We expect to remain in Early Access for approximately 12 to 18 months as we expand the vocabulary content, refine progression systems, and add additional languages based on community feedback.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The full version is planned to include significantly expanded phrase decks, additional vocabulary batches, more advanced kanji unlocks, and full support for multiple languages such as Spanish, French, and Korean. Future updates may also introduce new visuals, progression systems, expanded mastery tiers, and additional customization options. Throughout Early Access, we’ll be refining pacing, polish, and overall user experience based on community feedback.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version includes a complete learning loop for Japanese, featuring immersive phrase cards, XP-based progression, kanji unlocks, and full idle gameplay. Players can study multiple vocabulary phases, level up phrases, and track their mastery. The core systems are fully functional, with additional content and languages planned for future updates.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We plan to gradually raise the price as we add new content, languages, and features throughout Early Access and toward full release. Early adopters will receive full access to all content updates at no additional cost.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Community feedback is at the core of our Early Access approach. We are actively listening to player suggestions regarding pacing, new features, additional languages, and content balance. Updates will be guided by player input through forums, discussions, and direct feedback, helping us shape Automatic Language Learning into the most enjoyable and effective language-learning experience possible.”

Whether you’re just starting out or returning to your studies, ALL makes learning feel rewarding, visual, and under your control.

🌟 What Makes It Special

🎴 Visual Phrase Cards

Study handcrafted, fully illustrated phrase cards based on real Japanese usage. Each sentence only uses the words you’ve already unlocked — so everything stays readable, even as you grow.

📚 Built-In Grammar Exposure

Grammar isn’t dumped on you — it’s gently introduced through actual usage. Each phrase teaches structures naturally, with growing variety as your vocabulary expands.

📈 XP & Progression System

Level up every phrase from Beginner to Immortalized (Level 100).
Earn XP. Unlock new phrases. See visual feedback at every milestone — including new kanji, icons, and animated card frames as you reach level 10, 20, 30, and beyond.

🧩 Quiz Mode

Test what you’ve learned with a quick-fire Kanji & Phrase Quiz. Choose the correct meaning, beat your best streaks, and reinforce your memory — all optional, no pressure.

📊 Study Stats & Mastery Tracking

Keep track of your study habits, favorite words, XP gains, and fully mastered phrases. See your real fluency journey unfold in numbers and visuals.

🔓 Organic Unlock System

Words unlock one by one, and each new one opens a fresh set of sentences using only what you know. No overwhelming grammar. No out-of-place vocabulary. Just step-by-step growth.

🗂️ Massive Modular Vocabulary

Start with beginner-friendly batches like:

Family, food, emotions, directions
Nature, colors, places, verbs, and more

Each set is divided into Acts and Phases, carefully designed so every new word builds on your current knowledge.

🧘‍♂️ Relaxing Idle Loop

No daily timers. No “streaks.” No punishment.
Study at your own pace, pick up where you left off, and grow naturally — whether you play for 5 minutes or 5 hours.

🎨 Unlockable Art, Frames & Kanji

Each level milestone unlocks new visual upgrades for your phrase cards — evolving backgrounds, kanji overlays, decorative borders, and more.

🌍 Supports Multiple Languages (Fully Modular Engine)

Japanese is fully supported.
Coming soon: Spanish, French, Korean, and more — with full phrase decks and matching progression.
