Logos Panic: Goaisatu ("Goaisatsu" is a formal traditional greeting, though the game's box art and title screen spells the word differently in English) is a puzzle game for the Super Famicom that relies on the user's knowledge of kanji and Japanese language. Given the subject matter, the game was never released overseas. The player is introduced as a fledgling businessperson who doesn't understand the formal language used by their company, and must learn it fast. The player can choose between eight playable characters, with three more that become unlocked through playing the single-player mode. The player must form full phrases with a list of kanji provided by placing them individually on a six-by-six grid. When a full phrase is created horizontally or vertically, it disappears and the player earns points. If they fill the board with unreadable kanji, they lose. Occasionally, the actions of the opponent will cause some of the kanji on the player's side to turn blank, at which point it can only be removed by completing phrases near them.
