• 同どうJLPT N1approx.Common
  unclassifiedSeldom the word you want for 'likewise': its meaning is simply 'the same', and it does not stand alone in sentences the way English 'likewise' does; use 同じく or また instead.
• またJLPT N5approx.Common
  adverbHere 'likewise' is purely additive — 'also', 'too', 'as well' — as in 'the room was clean and likewise spacious'. It is normally written in kana rather than in kanji.
  ジムもまたパーティーに来きます。↗

  Jim is coming to the party, too.

Use 「同じく」 for 'likewise' meaning 'in the same way, similarly'; 「また」 when 'likewise' simply adds another point ('also, too, as well'); 同 is rarely a standalone translation and is best avoided for this sense.
