My children are in a French Immersion school, which means eighty-some-percent of the day they are taught in French. My own French is not exactly stellar. I mean I have the basic “I learned this in grade school because I am Canadian” level of French, which my kids, who are in 1st and 4th grade, are already surpassing. Via John Evans

One thing that makes our game so different is that you play by talking. This is hard for people to imagine because the games they are accustomed to usually involve shooting zombies, cars that can jump, or blocks that disappear after changing colors. As we design this game and plan future additions, we have found that this conversation-based gameplay opens many, many possibilities. The types of adventures, the strategic mini-games, the storyline & side-plots, the depth & breadth of players’ social interactions… all of these aspects of our game have given us at WordUp Games plenty to work with.
