Trancelation

I was looking for a language learning game yesterday, and honestly, this is a hidden gem. I didn't expect much at all, but the controls are surprisingly smooth, and the aesthetics and music are solid as well. The ability to import your own vocab fully sealed the deal for me. I would've passed on this game if it didn't have that feature since I'm not learning any of the available languages in-game, but now you can use it for literally anything you want. (I just wish it had Steam achievements, since I'm a sucker for that, LOL)

A well executed spoonful of sugar for taking your flashcard medicine. Worth multiples of the list price if you appreciate its utility. Hijacks your dopamine response just enough to get you to spend time learning. Gameplay is sort of like freeform pac-man; it is [i]not[/i] a rhythm game so you can turn down the music slider in settings and play whatever you want; the tracks are ok but there is only one per arena. You can emphasize the arcade mechanics as much or as little as you like with simple or complex arenas and three difficulty settings, so it is accessible for all. If you can edit a CSV, you can create (or export or download) your own lists to your heart's content. This makes the game far more valuable, as the included lists, while good and relatively abundant, will only take you so far. And you needn't limit yourself to languages, you can do any text based flashcard you want. Developer could have tried to monetize additional content but had the good taste not to. Refreshingly bug free. The language learning space is rife with overpriced but ineffective tools. Games often take the route of bloated narratives or excessive mechanics with fixed and limited language content, ma…

Interesting concept with addictive gameplay that let to train your memory inside huge variety of modes and levels.

This game deserves more praise as a language learning tool. You get what you put in, and making your own word lists for whatever it is your learning is essential to get the most out of this game. I use it with the music muted and put on my own playlists. It's basically a more entertaining variety of thr flashcard, rote learning system. MythicOwl, im not sure if you'll ever update this game but if you do, I pray that you add these (simple) features .- the ability to favourite a (custom) word list .- the ability to scroll through lists by holding down a button/joystick. When you have also many wordlists as I have navigating through them can be a bit of a pain. Thanks again!

Learn a language and play a game! Lots of different games in this gem of a learning tool to help you understand and learn new words! Lots of fun for all ages! https://youtu.be/nOxuwO_Flx4

Cool idea and when you've finished with the vocab the game provides you can add more from various sources without having to write it all out yourself
