@michaeldhopkins Thanks for the feedback. The game does get easier for native English speakers. Believe it or not, we've seen many non English speaking users aren't even willing to mash the keyboard. It's an intentional no-punishment approach that we leave in the game, hoping that could at least be a ramp for English learners.
Regarding your opinion on paying, did you mean that the game being too easy is a key decision criteria?
- michaeldhopkins 16y agoIt's not challenging enough for me, but more importantly I'm not convinced it's an effective way to increase vocabulary. I should warn you I am probably not a normal customer: I enjoy reading the OED and I think the best way to improve in English is to learn Latin...so just take this as one data point.
- tm65atcolumbia 16y agoOutlier opinions are important! Thanks. Re Latin, the game today is a great tool to teach lexical structures, ie. prefix, suffix, word etymology in fact.
