Ratings and reviews

I'm really glad to have found an app that offers an intro to majour West African languages! There is a nice selection of topics for each language, the graphics are cute, and the music is nice. I would love to see more variety in the lesson practice games. Maybe a couple of different activities instead of just matching phrases. But there is a lot of potential here, and I look forward to seeing where the developers take this! Also hope to see 101 versions of the other languages someday. 👍🏾

Great game! Fun & colorful and I learn some Igbo words & phrases, however I feel , if compared to other language learning games, that the learning platform lacks in certain aspects. Example, they just say a word and or a sentence, there's nothing for the learner to write or to say whay they just heard or are seeing. The game doesn't give the learner examples if an answer is incorrect, the learner just knows that its wrong. I do have other apps to help where this app lacks. Still a good app 😊

I have been interested in learning Yoruba and/or Twi for years. When I recently met some Ghanaians in our area who were totally up to help me with Twi, I started looking for resources and found almost nothing. This app has been AMAZING. I only, recently, had time to start really studying, but I can already see progress. I can't wait for them to add more Twi lessons!
