## What is Bob in the City?

Meet Bob - your new language friend!

Bob gets lost a lot, and he needs your help. Use your language skills to tell him where to go, and get him home safe and sound!

Practice directions, numbers, and command forms in your language of choice. Learn new vocabulary to navigate each level, and replay earlier levels to explore alternate routes with your new knowledge.

Currently, the game has support and localization for English, Spanish, and Mandarin Chinese, with more to come. There are four levels, with focus on directions (left, right, forwards, backwards), basic commands, and small numbers (1-3). 

There are four levels in the game, a random level generator, and a custom level builder! You can save your custom levels and even share them with other players using the Emoji Export feature. Just text the level to your friend, then they can paste it into their game.

Bob in the City provides relevant notes for all game vocabulary so that you know what you’re saying and why. Of course, feel free to provide your own verbs and alternate command forms, but I don’t promise these will be accepted! If you use a command that you believe should be accepted, please submit it in the support link.

Planned content always includes more languages, commands, levels, and interactions with Bob - can you find the hidden ones? I also plan to add other scenarios/settings, such as in Bob’s workplace or the grocery store. This would open the game for more diverse vocabulary and learning environments!

That’s all for now - enjoy the game!
