  1. [R4] Lingo Legend Language Learning 1/5 · US Exclusive: There’s only a limited selection of languages I was looking forward to see if they had Irish only to see they had like seven languages they need an update
  2. [R5] Lingo Legend Language Learning 5/5 · US I love learning games!: I wish there were more games with different subjects like this game!
  3. [R8] Lingo Legend Language Learning 4/5 · US It was a pretty fun game, but..: I just wish I could do polish.
  4. [R9] Lingo Legend Language Learning 5/5 · US a fun way to learn!: ong this is such an awesome way to learn a language (working on italian rn) and the gameplay is so whimsical it makes me actually motivated to learn
  5. [R7] Lingo Legend Language Learning 5/5 · US Love it!!: This is an app I see myself playing for a very long time to come! Serious language learners, don’t get discouraged by the long tutorial that is only in english! There will be plenty of language learning to come! And you’ll start to love and care for you Naala and farm :))) To the development team: Great game! And awesome job, you can really feel the love and care and the heart that wa
  6. [R11] Lingo Legend Language Learning 5/5 · US Fantastic: That lowkey sounds like a bit but I have tried Duolingo and a bunch of other apps and this one is soooo fun and it’s actually teaching me stuff
  7. [R15] Lingo Legend Language Learning 5/5 · US Fantastic for learning a new language: I love this app for learning a new language, it’s the first language learning app that has been able to hold my attention and keep me learning every day. I do wish that there were more quests and levels in the adventure tab, that’s the part that keeps me most engaged and losing the quest aspect of it because I finished the adventure makes it a bit harder to k
  8. [R3] Lingo Legend Language Learning 3/5 · US Bug 😓: Loving it so far, but it freezes me out every time it teaches the first radical (shou) in mandarin, no matter which game play I’m attempting it in. Couldn’t find where to put a bug report, so here it goes 🤷🏼
  9. [R43] Lingo Legend Language Learning 4/5 · US Developer:PLEASE READ: The concept of this app is unique and has definitely helped with learning. However after completing the “Dreamlight Awakens” quest I can’t continue. There’s no option for me to continue with my progress. I thought updating it would help but I’ve been stuck on that level despite completing the requirements to proceed.
  10. [R45] Lingo Legend Language Learning 5/5 · US Increase Vibrancy?: This is a phenomenal game! I love it so much and use it all the time! It’s been making a really big difference! Any chance on the next go round for iPhone yall could bump the vibrancy? Recently switch to iPhone and I’m missing the super bright colors that come with the android version.
  11. [R1] Lingo Legend Language Learning 2/5 · US You need energy to play: To play and to learn, you need “energy.” You can buy more energy as an option. But without having to buy anything you only get about 3 minutes of game play a day without the energy. Not really worth it if you can’t play.
  12. [R6] Lingo Legend Language Learning 2/5 · US Endless In App Purchases: I purchased the lifetime subscription thinking that would 1: allow for family sharing with more than one kid on my account being able to play and 2: that it would end the IAPs. I was wrong on both counts. Only one child can have a username and play. The game pushes monthly purchases on the kids even after you pay for lifetime. Too bad.
  13. [R12] Lingo Legend Language Learning 5/5 · US legit and solid business practices too: This is the first app for languages that I feel like I'm learning more than just vocab. Also, if you buy the lifetime membership, instead of letting you forget to turn off your subscription and therefore get more money, the app prompts you as soon as you open it again to go cancel your subscription! So, between actually helping with my spanish learning, th
  14. [R30] Lingo Legend Language Learning 5/5 · US some suggestions!: first of all, if you are considering downloading this app, absolutely do! it is a must have for language learning in such a cool and innovative way. incredibly engaging and the premium is so worth it- i have been using the custom cards to study curriculum from my college course, including more advanced grammar, and it has been by far the most helpful app because of how much it k
  15. [R2] Lingo Legend Language Learning 5/5 · US surprisingly good.: Fun gameplay, concise explanations and polite devs. I’d recommend it
  16. [R35] Lingo Legend Language Learning 5/5 · US I actually love this: Lovely little game I use to help better understand my Tia when she’s talking about me. You can choose when to play adds and if you don’t want adds you can pay for premium in order to support the game that way. Honestly prefer it since Duolingo went AI based.
  17. [R37] Lingo Legend Language Learning 5/5 · US A must have for learners: This game has been so much fun and genuinely helpful in my language learning pursuit. It’s a good balance of work and play, and I appreciate both the farming and deck building routes. Having options keeps things fresh. I also appreciate the ability to watch ads to restore energy. There’s a lot you can do completely for free.
  18. [R13] Lingo Legend Language Learning 5/5 · US best app. you will not find better: EVERYTHING about about this app is perfect. they use art by real artists. they have so many different languages to choose from, including canadian french, russian, chinese, etc. they even cared enough to separate the languages by dialect. there's so much content. they include audio from actual native speakers. their support is great. the developers actually care
  19. [R14] Lingo Legend Language Learning 5/5 · US Better than Duolingo so far!: I’ve only just started my journey, but so far I already think this will be a very effective tool for myself and I look forward to seeing where the story goes ☺️
  20. [R38] Lingo Legend Language Learning 5/5 · US THE best language learning app: I’ve been trying to learn Korean for a while, very on and off, but no app has helped me to actually learn and understand the language like this app. It’s so much better than Duolingo. The creators of this app have the curriculum set up in a very logical way unlike Duolingo which is so random in what you learn where one minute you’re learning vocabulary and the next
  21. [R41] Lingo Legend Language Learning 5/5 · US If learning languages was addictive…oh, wait…: That’s right, people! Come and get that good, good learning-dopamine! I was learning on Duolingo for about a year before I started this “game,” and I can tell you that my conversational skills improved significantly after grinding in this learning style! My absolute favorite part is that they let you dynamically adjust your difficulty settings when
