## About This Game
So you’ve learned some basic Spanish? And you’re ready to be immersed in a
Spanish speaking world of adventure? Then take control of Pedro as he travels
across the kingdom, solving puzzles, making friends and defeating monsters.
His journey to save the princess mirrors your journey into learning Spanish!

Pedro’s Adventures in Spanish is designed to be entirely in Spanish with no
in-game translations and will be useful regardless of your native language.
All interface, dialogue and narration is in simple Spanish accompanied by
carefully designed images and animations to help you understand the game play
and objectives.

This is not a classroom, there are no quizzes or word matching exercises. The
purpose of this game is to provide a fun but challenging environment for you
to practice and learn through immersion. Just how we learn our native
languages!

## FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
## “Is this game for beginners?”
No… *unless* you’re very serious about learning Spanish through immersion,
enjoy a challenge, and are willing to learn as you go. This game is
particularly useful for people who have a very basic level of Spanish and want
to put what they’re learning into practice while improving their vocabulary.
You’ll get the best results if you spend a few weeks or months learning the
basics before starting this game.
## “How is this different to just playing any regular game in Spanish?”
Games with language simple enough for beginners typically don’t require much
language comprehension to play. (Eg: most action platformers.) And narrative
driven games have a lot of dialogue which is too advanced for learners. It’s
also rare to find those games with full audio dialogue transcribed into other
languages. Pedro’s Adventures uses simple language designed for beginners and
accompanied by helpful imagery. That said, we would recommend that you try
playing some of your favorite RPGs in Spanish. If you are able to understand
all your objectives then congratulations! Your Spanish is already quite
excellent.
## “Everything is in Spanish without translation? Won’t I feel overwhelmed?”
Sometimes, yes! But don’t be discouraged, you can absolutely complete this
game even if you don’t understand every word that’s being said. If you can
persevere you’ll find that you’re still able to understand your objectives and
how to achieve them. New language learners often find themselves quite
overwhelmed when first attempting to interact in the language they’re
studying. This is a natural part of the process. Just watch for keywords and
context, and don’t be afraid to experiment!
## “Will this be useful if I want to learn Spanish from Spain (Castilian)?”
In short, yes. Especially if you are a beginner. The script and voice
performances were done by Latin American Spanish speakers but most of the
common verbs and nouns are the same in both variations of the language. Even
though some of the words in the game might be less commonly used in Spain,
Spaniards and Latinos are typically able to understand each other perfectly.
## “Will you be releasing this game in other languages as well?”
If there is sufficient support for Pedro’s Adventures then we intend to
release it for other languages starting with the romance languages (French,
Italian, Portuguese etc) and then eventually in Asian languages (Japanese,
Mandarin Chinese, Korean etc).
## “Will it be available on other platforms? (macOS, Android, consoles etc)”
Initially it will only be available for Windows PC, but if there is sufficient
demand for it then down the track we’d love to port the game to macOS, Linux,
consoles and mobile devices.
## A WORD FROM THE CREATORS
Pedro’s Adventures in Spanish is one of many resources you should use when
learning a language and is particularly useful for learning common nouns,
verbs and pronunciation. We recommend playing it in conjunction with resources
that focus on teaching the nuances of grammar and verb conjugation.

ROCKET BOY GAMES is an independent games studio with the objective of
providing fun alternatives to your language learning experience. This is our
first commercial release and with enough support we hope to create a variety
of language learning games for Spanish along with other languages. We hope you
will be part of that journey. Buena suerte.
