First of all, I must precise that I've been studying linguistics for 5 years and that I've been learning German since 2012. And so I picked "German" as my chosen language for my walkthrough. With that in mind, here's my review: NounTown is a good game! The idea of turning the most boring and tedious task that comes with language learning (a.k.a learning vocabulary) into a game is truly a good idea. And it works! I was quite amazed at seeing how well I could remember the few words that I did not know (or had learned but ended up forgetting throughout the years). I got the 100% in one sitting ('cause I like to suffer, I guess?) and still those new words were printed in my brain with permanent ink. This was quite impressive to me because I usually have to read countless times my lists of words in order for some of them to remain in my brain. However because of its fun vibes or because some Steam Achievements could be unlocked this way, I just learned them and still remember them to this day. So just for this, congrats to the dev' team! Now that are a few things that I must point-out (regarding the German version of the game): some terms are wrongly chosen. As someone who has German-speaking family and who has lived in German-speaking countries for a while, some words portrayed in the game are just not used during every-day talks. "Unterhemd" (=shirt) for example is just not something that I heard any German say, to talk about a shirt people would simply say "Hemd". Also some words portrayed there are just so rare that it seems very pointless to teach 'em to beginners "river dolphins" for example is such a niche and unusual word to know. Whereas some very useful terms are just not present like "fridge", "washing machine" or "sink". In conclusion, NounTown is a very great game for a very specific audience: people who already know a bit about a language and who want to work on their vocabulary. If you do not know anything about a language you'd like to learn, do not use NounTown as your base because it's not gonna be very useful to you. NounTown doesn't teach you the rules of grammar nor syntax of the language you're tryin' to learn but it can sure help ya revise and improve your vocabulary. P.S.: adding body parts, more pieces of furniture, more plants/trees/crops, basic car/truck names, basic mechanical parts, some dishes, some country names, some job names and parts of the house (roof, stairs, floor etc.) to the word lists would be a great addition in my opinion.

An interesting game I plan to play to the end. I've been teaching myself a language for about 4-5 years, through books, games, and apps. So I thought I'd check out this game. It's cutesy without being kiddy. The world is drained of color, and you must bring the color back by unpacking "nouns", studying them, and 'speaking' them (you don't need a microphone). Though, I do wish there were more direct translations of phrases when speaking to NPCs. Example: An NPC says "I want the world to be everyone's world" in my word-to-word translation, because I'm already decently into my chosen language. But when the game translates the same phrase, they translate it to "I want world peace". Like, yeah, that's what they mean... but is that REALLY what they said? Not really. It's like that for a lot of NPC communication. "(Game language) Do you have anything not answered?/(Game translation) Anything else?" It's the 'implied' translation, instead of the 'actual' translation. But so far, talking to NPCs is just a small part of the game, and there's still much learning to do. A game for "intermediate" learners. Recommended

i'm a heritage mandarin speaker trying to improve my poor vocabulary. among other issues, a couple sentences i encountered in this game were grammatically incorrect (poorly translated from english, most notably "我想下雪“ as "I want snow"), there are some bugs (like i say the correct sentence, but the sentence its comparing to is repeated like three times in a row), and i nearly had an aneurysm trying to get it to accept my pronunciation of 驴 (which is fair since it's one of the harder tones, but gosh, five minutes of enunciating a million times only to get transcriptions that were completely off). all that being said, i think this is a good game for vocabulary, and i like the gameplay; most bugs can be skipped with a button, and the majority of dialogue is fine. just use this game for speaking, reading, and vocab, NOT for grammar or to contextualize words. i tried japanese as well, but i can't speak on how accurate that dialogue is, because i don't know japanese. anyway, good early access game. eagerly awaiting bug fixes. happily populating my anki decks. is it worth $20? probably not yet, but it's a good supplement.

I have been studying Mandarin Chinese for well over 6 years now and I am not fluent, but I can hold conversations and use advanced grammar. My aim in using this was to grow my vocabulary in a more immersive environment. Overall, the game is an immersive language game that brings a twist to language-learning that is well-needed. It is practical and useful to whomever wants to "level up" their learning experience! Get it? I made a pun... anyways... the games are useful in memory retention and the premise of the game is unique. However, there are still major flaws in the game. The Chinese tone detection leaves a lot to be desired. I am not sure if this goes for the other languages you can learn through the game, but Japanese and especially Chinese are tone-heavy for word meaning. It is very frustrating that the voices they use have a tone inflection, but when you try to use it, it doesn't pick up what you are saying. Most words, I cannot use the voice detection for. I know that I have the correct pronunciation, but it will just count them as wrong. Not to mention, if you take your time saying a sentence, it will cut you off and say it's wrong. I know that it took me at least a year to say sentences without it sounding choppy. For those who are still beginners, this will be frustrating. I really hope the tone detection will be fixed. It is quite infuriating to say the least.

This is a very cute concept for a game, however, there are a few things I will note. 1) This is definitely more geared towards intermediate learners (based on the Japanese learning path alone). This game assumes that you already know some basics of the language and immediately exposes you to Kanji and also doesn't allow for slowing the NPCs' speech down. 2) The voice recognition is a bit flimsy. There were moments where I said the words exactly how they're pronounced, but the game heard me incorrectly and wouldn't let me pass no matter what I tried. 3) The overall control movement of the character feels a little stiff. That being said, this is still a very fun game and I plan on continuing to play with it.
