Noun Town :
Noun Town Language Learning has just released a major new free update introducing two new features.
No-speech input:
Players can now choose to input via text or the original voice recognition method – using whatever method suits their learning style best (or both!)
This provides players with a whole new way for players to learn
They can also now enjoy Noun Town even without an internet connection
Progress LINK:
In another world-first for educational gaming, players can now synchronize their learning between versions of Noun Town (even the VR version!)
Save data is also backed up to the cloud for added security and resilience
Available now on the PC + Mac versions as a free update, Noun Town continues to attract thousands new users keen on learning languages immersively. The game offers 13 languages to learn (English, Japanese, German, Korean, Chinese (Mandarin), Spanish (MX), Spanish (ES), French, Italian, Ukrainian, Russian, Greek and Egyptian Arabic), contains over 1,000 words and phrases, and 16 NPCs to practice speaking with.
This update is another step towards transistioning from Early Access to full release with the support and feedback of a vibrant and growing community. Both of the new features will also appear in the award-winning VR version, Noun Town: VR Language Learning, later this year.
