## What is Ludus?

Stop wasting time making flashcards manually. Ludus comes with pre-loaded dictionaries, so you can search any word, save it instantly, and it automatically becomes part of your daily study deck.

Ludus uses Free Spaced Repetition Scheduler (FSRS), a modern spaced repetition system that builds a unique forgetting curve for every word, so you review vocabulary right before you're likely to forget it. That means fewer wasted reps, faster progress, and stronger long-term memory.

Whether you're learning French, Spanish, or building vocabulary for school, Ludus helps you study consistently and retain more with less effort.

FREE FEATURES:
- Pre-loaded dictionaries (no manual flashcard creation)
- Instant word saving with automatic daily review deck
- FSRS-based spaced repetition for smarter scheduling
- Word definitions, grammar info, and example usage
- Clean, fast studying built for real learning

PAID FEATURES (Academic Weapon subscription):
- All Languages Unlocked
- Unlimited Saved Lists

Coming soon: Games, skins.

### 5/5 — W app

*2026-07-22*

🔥 Ludus > Quizlet

### 5/5 — Beautiful, geeky and fun

*2026-07-16*

It's like language learning for geeks! Word search saves you so much time compared to Quizlet, the gacha feature is genius, the art and music are beautiful and the interface is incredibly smooth and satisfactory. This is the highest quality around. I am pleasantly surprised 🫶

### 5/5 — Language learning app that actually works

*2026-05-05*

Started using this app as a way to practice French on a busy schedule, and it’s actually effective and useful for daily conversations. Instead of assigning specific vocab or grammar, I can personally choose what I want and need to learn. Super useful for anyone who wants to learn a completely new language or hone their existing skills!

### 5/5 — Ludus is goated

*2026-04-11*

Really helpful for actually learning a language. Combines features from apps I already like, but in a more effective way, with the system built on commonly used language and words. Curriculum is well structured Plus the art and interface are really well designed which makes for a great overall user experience.

### 5/5 — French

*2026-04-08*

I tried this app because Duolingo wasn’t really teaching me anything and it made all the difference I’m already learning phrases and punctuation I would totally recommend.

### 1/5 — Zzzz.

*2026-04-03*

Doesn’t do anything. There are no flash cards, because no words have been added, and there is no way to add words. Also, there is no way to access the “stadium(s).”

**Developer response:** Hi, thank you for bringing this issue to our attention. The inability to add words was a Chinese-specific issue, and we have fixed the bug. Stadiums are out only for select languages, but Chinese stadiums will be released soon. If you go to Stadiums and click on a lesson, it should say "Coming Soon." Currently, French has the most features available.

### 1/5 — Features don’t work

*2026-03-05*

The scanning feature appears to be broken because I keep encountering an unexpected error when I try to use it. 

There is no multi select option for the questions at the beginning. 

In the translate sentence feature there is no option to get the audio of the whole sentence and that’s a little frustrating for beginners who haven’t even seen or heard any of these sentences. 
It feels like a bunch of random words stuck together in a sentence and you have never seen it before. There is no option to go to the next sentence - I have to go back and then click on that feature again to get a new sentence. 


The app has potential, but the bugs and errors need to be fixed.

**Developer response:** The scan feature of our app was a really tough one to build, and we have since tabled it and focused on other features like building Stadium-style curriculums. Please let us know if you try our app again, find any other issues, or have any other feedback.

### 5/5 — Up and coming app

*2026-01-19*

Better than Duolingo. Art is satisfying as well as the easy to follow style to learn a language!

### 5/5 — Peak Cinema

*2026-01-05*

It’s so peak it almost made me shed a tear. And it’s peaker than duo lingo because duo keeps you chopped. And the art is also peak, i’m still requesting a fire penguin.

### 5/5 — The next  1 learning tool

*2025-12-26*

I have used several ways to work on languages throughout the years. Duolingo, Quizlet and much more.

This app is new, fun, and engaging with incredible design. If you don’t use Ludus, you’re Ludicrous!!
