This software works as a means to learn Spanish through fun game activities that present real life situations. The program is designed for ages 12 and up and would probably be best for the Spanish learner that already has some base for the language. The instructions and general content of the game are given in Spanish, but there is an option for translations. The real life context provided by the games encourages the learner to use problem solving. While interacting with this software the learner will do things like: travel through Mexico, meet people and even shop. The idea is to provide entertaining images and move at a learning pace that will keep the attention of the Spanish learner that already has some foundation to the language and is excited to learn more.
