A language-learning program, it offers lessons and exercises to follow in short modules, often carried by an animated staging. Its 'lifespan' isn't a game's but a teaching program's, consulted regularly in small doses. The low rating reflects this educational vocation, where personal progress matters more than an adventure to complete.
