Lost Abroad Details
Lost Abroad is an immersive language learning game that allows players to learn and practice language skills in context, improving retention and motivation.Meet Lisa, who spent 2 months learning Italian on popular language apps before flying to Italy. However, when she finally landed in Milan Airport, she realized that she couldn't even order a cup of coffee, although she could say "the man is eating bread" perfectly. Lisa is not alone: hundreds of thousands learners struggle to find language apps that teach practical language skills in an engaging manner. This is why we created Lost Abroad, an Animal-Crossing-like world where you learn a language just by playing games on your phone. For example, in Mandarin Chinese, you will learn how to order food from a restaurant by talking to the waitress and then literally use your fingers as chopsticks to sample every dish on a virtual turntable without offending anyone by appearing too greedy. This way, you not only learn the most practical languages for travel, but also the culture etiquette to make sure that you have the best experience possible. We are a passionate team of language teachers and learners who understand the struggle and how and how not to learn a language. Our goal is to change the language learning landscape to make it not only practical and effective, but also fun and addictive.
