Explore Talkback City, a 3D world where you meet characters, take on challenges and talk your way through an ongoing story. To play the game, you'll need to use the language you're learning — asking questions, solving problems, ordering food, finding information and getting things done. Every conversation has a purpose. Every task moves you forward. ## A LANGUAGE-LEARNING RPG Explore the city, uncover the story and complete missions using your target language. Meet unusual characters. Discover new places. Find the things you need. Work out what to do next. ## LEARN BY DOING Language is a tool we use to do things. Talkback City gives you a reason to use your new language. You might need to order something from a café because the owner has an item you need. Ask someone for directions to find your next destination. Get information from a character to solve a problem. Instead of memorising phrases and hoping you'll remember them later, you use the language in meaningful situations as you explore. ## BUILT FOR REAL LANGUAGE LEARNING Talkback City is entertaining, but there's serious language learning behind the game. What you learn doesn't stay inside a lesson. You need to use it. Lessons introduce useful vocabulary and language through realistic tasks and conversations. Then, as you explore the city, you'll put that language into practice to solve problems, complete missions and move the story forward. The goal is to help you become better at the thing that really matters: actually communicating. ## LEARN FROM EVERY CONVERSATION Make mistakes. Get feedback. Try again. Talkback gives you real-time corrections and personalised feedback while you practise. You'll get help with: • Speaking and communication • Grammar and vocabulary • Pronunciation • Common mistakes • Useful words and expressions Then put what you've learned straight back into practice as you continue through the city. ## EXPLORE, TALK AND PROGRESS With Talkback City you can: • Explore an interactive 3D world • Follow an ongoing story • Complete missions and language challenges • Meet characters with their own personalities • Have AI-powered conversations • Practise realistic everyday situations • Get real-time corrections as you speak • Improve your pronunciation • Build vocabulary with interactive activities • Complete structured language lessons And expect some strange characters, unexpected situations and jokes along the way. ## MORE WAYS TO PRACTISE There's more to Talkback than the City. Create your own role-play scenarios based on situations that matter to you, practise conversations with an AI language tutor, or use the Language Lab to work on grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation. Whether you're learning for travel, work, study or simply because you want to speak another language, Talkback helps you practise actually using it. ## LEARN 26 LANGUAGES • English, including British and American English • Spanish • French • German • Italian • Portuguese • Dutch • Swedish • Danish • Norwegian • Welsh • Polish • Ukrainian • Russian • Greek • Turkish • Hebrew • Arabic • Hindi • Urdu • Swahili • Chinese • Japanese • Korean • Vietnamese • Thai ## WHAT USERS ARE SAYING “Really enjoying the app. It feels like a really natural way to learn and speak another language, mimicking real-life conversations.” — Jonnylaw86, App Store review Explore Talkback City and start using your new language today.
