How it feels

A tense and demanding FPS where you must learn a real foreign language on the fly to survive and upgrade your gear.

What players say

Players praise the novel idea of combining language drills with FPS action, but nearly everyone agrees the vocabulary is far too small to be a serious learning tool. The constant enemy spawning makes combat frustrating even on easy, and many call it a proof of concept rather than a finished game.
