Can This Card Go Out? — Check the RSVP card before you post it

A quick browser game about the etiquette of the reply postcard that comes with a Japanese wedding invitation. One filled-in card arrives at a time, showing either the front (address) or the back (attend/decline, address and name). Tap the word that still needs fixing, or press “Post as is” if the card is fine. There are seven kinds of mistakes: the honorific 御 left on 御出席 or 御住所, 芳 left on 御芳名, 名 struck out too, 行 left on the front, 様 written to an organisation, blue or grey ink, and correction fluid. Each card has zero to two. When you miss one or tap a correct word, you see the correct form, a one-line reason in English and the source, and the clock stops while you read. Three misses end the round. The result shows how many cards you posted and the correct form of every kind you missed. Reasons follow the Agency for Cultural Affairs’ “Keigo no Shishin” and other Japanese guides. Free, no sign-up.

How to play

  1. A filled-in RSVP postcard (front or back) appears. Tap any word that still needs fixing
  2. If nothing is wrong, press “Post as is”. A card has 0 to 2 mistakes; fix them all and it posts itself
  3. A miss or a wrong tap shows the correct form and why (the clock stops while you read). Three misses and you are out
  4. The clock starts on your first tap. Post as many cards as you can in 60 seconds

Keyboard: Tab or ←→ choose a word / Enter or Space mark it / P post as is / R play again from the result
