- Portuguese speakers learning Italian through play
- Worth noticing
- Its 112-day curriculum maps four seasons to CEFR stages, while the page explicitly says levels are estimates, not certification.
Field notes
The landing page builds the learning premise around daily farm work: vocabulary is represented as seed to plant, water, and harvest. It names four seasonal stages and gives examples of their language goals, from greetings and ordering food to discussing feelings and telling a story. The stated A1-to-A2 progression is explicitly an estimate based on the game's curriculum, not a credential.
