Influent

Language Learning Game

Published by: Robert Howland

Description

Influent is a Language Learning Game focusing primarily on vocabulary acquisition and pronunciation. It was initially developed in Japan at the University of Tsukuba's Entertainment Computing Laboratory under the Monbukagakusho Government Research Scholarship.
Inspired by Dreamcast titles of old (namely Shenmue and Toy Commander) Influent immerses players in a fully interactive 3D environment where the names for absolutely every object in the game can be gleaned with a single click! In fact, even more information can be learned with a double-click! Every door, drawer, and cabinet can be opened with a right-click here and a right-click there, revealing more and more things to be learned! Packed to the brim with hundreds of native audio pronunciations (painstakingly recorded specifically for this game), Influent offers players a unique opportunity to enjoy learning both vocabulary and pronunciation in the language of their choice.

Has potential!

Add more environments, please! Also, I was unable to progress the tutorial beyond the task of finding an object with a synonym. I tried three times.

No Latin ?

I downloaded this as I saw it had Latin advertised on your website and I saw a video with a guy playing it with the Latin. This app version does not have Latin (incidentally I also saw that the steam DLC for this doesn’t have Latin anymore either). Is there an explanation or is it coming back ? I’ll revert my rating if there is a misunderstanding or bug. I’m interested in this game, it looks cool.

Great for building vocab

Review for the Japanese version: If you already know the Japanese alphabet, this is a fantastic app to use when trying to learn the basics of items you see and use everyday in your home. I removed a star because the latter challenge (reversal challenges) are trying to test the user on words that are not in their vocab list. It is quite confusing and results in a failing score, I’m not sure why it keeps trying to give me words I have yet to study but it ruins the last bit of the challenges.

3D flashcards

I like the idea of practicing vocabulary in a 3D environment and the touch controls are fine. This is nice to use along side Duolingo. I also like being able to skip the tutorial when I want to start a new save.

My Issue

Is there’s no audio.

Sooo helpful

The amount of time that the creator put into this is actually amazing! I’m learning Korean, and my biggest issue is immersion and putting vocab words to use. This helps so so so much. I really like the testing feature where you have to go find the items to master the word. I’ve been looking for an app that does exactly this. Immersion is super hard when you aren’t in an area where you have easy access to the language. This puts you in the position of forcing yourself to learn through looking at the objects. I think because it’s set in a house, and you’re surrounded by everyday objects, you have the ability to think about/redirect your attention to what’s physically around you IRL and use the new vocab. I literally just started but, I really reccomend this to any beginners to the language— I’m super excited to see more progression in the game. Rob you killed this, thank you!

Not for me

The story and characters are very charming! But I couldn’t get used to the controls and being able to interact with all of the objects was a little overwhelming to me personally. But besides that, I think this is a good idea.

Has Potential

I am stuck in a state where I am supposed to pretend my character is doing some sort of Twitch-like streaming of going around the house and clicking on objects (I guess, that’s just what I’m getting from the bee character’s dialogue when I open the game). Once the 15 minute timer is up, nothing happens. No idea how to get to the minigames, and I teach UI at a university… Discord server invite link in the game is expired. So, I think this app has a lot of potential. I am just not sure how to get to it, and it would be great if additional environments were added. I’d be willing to pay .99 per environment per language, and there are a few languages getting studied in my home.

Needs more places

It only has a house it needs like a cafe and stuff

Great app, but I wish you can go out of the house

I wish there were more settings like a city, forest, and more to learn from
