Noun Town Language Learning

language learning game uses the U.S. flag for the english language.

Forces me to confront how terrible my pronunciation is and I need that

I love this game. Although it isn't good for fully learning a language, it expands your vocabulary by teaching you nouns. It also teaches you some phrases, too. It has a daily limit for learned words, so that you don't try to learn too many words at once (You are still able to learn more words in a day, though.). The several locations allow you to learn a large variety of nouns. So I would really recommend this game to expand your vocabulary of another language.

This had great potential, and I had fun with it. But it seems forever incomplete. The main issue is the developer. They try a lot of things and don't seem to be able to push any of them to a refined enough state. Truly ADHD development. (I have ADHD to say this.) When you do edutainment, sneaking some learning into play, you have to balance even more things than in ordinary entertainment. This product feels very mismanaged and never given a second pass in every aspect of it. There is no one who can tidy up all the boring stuff. What I found here: - few fun learning mechanics (some of them could've been expanded further); - basic spaced repetition system; - pronunciation practice that is actually mostly working (experience way vary depending on learned language); - limited set of words, overwhelmingly dominated by animal names (impractical, far from letting you do basic communication); - lots of mistakes in the dictionary (amounts may vary per language), never fixed; - some game-breaking bugs, never fixed; - some planned content that was never implemented. The game dropped Early Access label without any fix. Devs released a VR game and an idler "game" based on the same language …

Really helpful and cute :)

good game cozy
