Hello HN, I made Kurdle, a daily kanji challenge game similar to Wordle, where a vowel in the active word is masked by a kanji of the same meaning.

For example, yesterday's word was "CAUSE" and the A in "CAUSE" was masked by the kanji 由 meaning reason, origin, or source.

Each day the kanji will rotate, this ties in to my platform Japanese Complete, where we teach 777 kanji to get learners to 90% coverage of "kanji in the wild," based on our data-driven approach that leverages the insights of the BCCWJ (the Balanced Corpus for Contemporary Written Japanese).

Have fun! I would love to hear back about the execution and design.
