About Lingotopia


Lingotopia is a language learning game about being lost in a city where you don't speak the language. Learn Chinese, French, German, Japanese, Russian, Spanish and more! You play a little girl shipwrecked on the shores of a strange island. In order to get back home you'll need to explore the island and talk to its inhabitants. Sadly, no one speaks your language! You'll have to learn words one at a time to decipher what these strange creatures are saying.

How does it work?

  • Explore a lovingly handcrafted city.
  • Click on objects in the environment and your guide will teach you the word for them.
  • Learn words by talking to the city's inhabitants.
  • Voice recordings by native speakers teach you the correct pronunciation.
  • Learning a language with a different script? Toggle between the romanised and native script at any time.

Words you know can be translated when they appear during conversations. So, the more words you know, the more you'll begin to feel at home in this strange place. You might even be able to find a way off the island!

Will this really help me learn a language


Yes! Learning words is the most important part of language learning. You can learn several hundred words by playing Lingotopia. As the game only translates individual words and not entire sentences, you also learn word order and grammar by playing. All dialogue in the game is tied to the setting and story, so you have a reason to decipher each and every sentence.

What languages can I learn?


The official languages are Arabic, Chinese, French, German, Japanese, Russian, Spanish. You can learn English in each of these languages. There are also over 20 "unofficial languages", these don't have voice recordings and I won't be able to vouch for the accuracy of the translations.

It's seems like there are no updates/ fixes that are going to be happening in the future with this game (since there hasnt been any since 2018), which is sad cause I really do love the concept. I was just starting to get into it, but suddenly the dialog boxes started being blank in the english- japanese mode. Then that means I'm just clicking and guessing while getting no context :/ If this game were to ever get these bugs fixed I'd put so many more hours into it but now I'm just embarrassed I didn't look at reviews before puchasing.

I can only recommend this game if bought at a heavy discount and you can ignore the bugs. The dictionary shut down several time during my ~10 minute play time and the experience was mediocre at best. The best part of the game is the ability to see and have the translation of objects. It makes it so much easier in my mind to understand these items in the language I'm learning. However, this game does not deserve the pricetag. I bought the game at about $5 and even still it's almost not worth it. DO NOT BUY THIS GAME WITHOUT UPDATES AND/OR A PRICE REDUCTION

I would recommend... if you LOVE language enough to look past the bugs, and you get it on sale. I would love this game if it worked properly and had a bit of a polish (not Polish, but that would be good too). I honestly feel like this is an excellent way to learn languages, but it needs an amazing game designer to make it great. Major Issues: -Long time since last update? -Crashed on dictionary -Clipping through buildings -Tank controls ( the camera only moves when you move the cursor to the side of the screen) -Style ( looks like PS1) Please update, gracias, danke, tusen takk, thank you.

The game is very well made, great artwork and music. However the learning mechanic in the .7 hrs I played is extremely lacking. Also there did not appear to be any questing or incentive to explore the city further. It's difficult for me to recommend this game to anyone serious about language learning. Also please add dictionary to the tests it might help contextualize the guessing.
Not recommended Dec 4, 2021
Game was very clunky and unpolished when it worked. Now it won't even start, including after uninstall/reinstall.
Not recommended Aug 22, 2021
Within 5 minutes I sent a refund request. Poorly made, not worth paying for, maybe good for a free game but honestly there is no explanation into the game as to what is happening makes 0 sense wouldn't recommend at all
