Nice game, doesn't really teach
Cheap isn't always best. While Rosetta Stone tests your speech, vocabulary, and word recognition - My Spanish Coach only teaches you vocabulary while speaking key words. You're really not going to learn much in my opinion. Then again I've already learned most of it in High School.
It gets to a point where the player or the student will have to push himself a bit further because the game is fit to a point where the player will just know which button to press without even understanding the word itself. Let me explain, I can read Spanish but I can not speak it thoroughly. Some lessons were too easy to pass but when I did pass them I was not satisfied so I kept going back to that lesson to try and speak the language myself.
The game becomes a game and not much of a tool. It's definitely worth the price (of 8 bucks) since it's portable and it's just like a little word-search puzzle game for folks like me on road trips.
