Finally, a comprehensive language game experience on the DS.,
While some other "nongames" provide limited access to linguistics-based challenges, this is the first I've seen to really capture the joy of engaging with language. I am seriously impressed with this title, and I've been recommending it to parents and colleagues alike.

Fun, Educational Game is Great for Adults or Older Children!,
We all want a better vocabulary. We just don't want to work hard to do it. That's where this game comes in. It makes learning new words so fun and easy that you don't even notice you're learning until later on, when you are surprised and pleased at your expanded vocabulary.

“People who are interested in words will find these training games intriguing. Some adults may resent the emphasis on speed, because for them it is all about learning the new words. But for kids, the speed angle may actually help to sustain their interest. High schoolers who are preparing to take the verbal and writing portion of the SAT might want to add this video game to their backpack — it's more fun than simply memorizing word lists.”
