Vice Verba helps students of Latin master verb forms. Players parse verbs and produce forms to earn togas. When enough togas are collected, an ‘imago’ of a famous dead Roman is unlocked. Collect all XII ‘imagines’, and don’t forget to flip the ‘imagines’ over to see their stats! Players can customize the game by choosing tenses, voices, and moods, and the presence or absence of macrons. The game increases in difficulty as the player’s skills improve. Vice Verba was inspired by the ‘Hoplite Challenge Cup’, a non-digital game created by Drs. Hardy Hansen and Gerald Quinn for the intensive Greek program at CUNY. Thanks to Dr. Hansen for his encouragement and advice at the earliest stages of development. Thanks also to the University of Winnipeg for its generous financial support.

If you are taking Latin I, this is the study app for you. Created by a teacher at the Foote School in New Haven, CT, to help middle schoolers study verb, noun, and adjective forms, the Latin App makes drilling simple and fun. If you are using the Ecce Romani textbook, just enter the chapter you are currently on and go. Otherwise, read about what forms are generated on the information screen before you start. The Latin App can quiz you on all of the forms of the nouns puella, servus, ager, puer, vox, pater, civis, nomen, baculum, arcus, res, and dies and the adjectives magnus, omnis, ingens, hic, ille, is, and qui. It can also quiz you on all of the forms in the active voice and indicative mood of the verbs paro, habeo, mitto, iacio, audio, sum, possum, volo, nolo, eo, and fero. New in version 1.2 are passive voice forms of regular verbs. Ecce Romani is published by Pearson Education, Inc., which is not affiliated with this app.
