$24.95$199.95

Choose your character and travel freely across the spaces of the tabletop. Along the way, talk about 100+ intriguing topics in your target language in order to gain allies, collect pick ups, and enter locations, as well as defeat enemies and other players. The player who earns enough points first wins!

Solo or multiplayer. Competitive or cooperative. A quick round or a long round. You decide! No matter how you play, an unforgettable linguistic adventure is guaranteed!

More than a game, Heading Into Language Land is a complete language learning course captured inside a deck of cards. Every time you open the box, your language learning journey goes deeper. The more cards you collect and study, the more of your target language you will master.

(Study guides with example sentences covering all the topics in the game available now for Spanish, Mandarin, and Japanese. A bit later on, Turkish will be ready, too. These resources can greatly speed up your progress!)

Card Commissions

I am currently open for taking card commissions! Email Matt at [email protected].

Whenever I design cards for my language learning card games like Heading Into Language Land, I always do my best to incorporate a wide variety of word categories, types, and difficulty levels. As thoughtful as that process may be, I doubt it could ever capture all of your specific and extraordinary interests that you would like to be able to communicate about in your target language. That is why I want to offer to you the card commission option! With this option, you will have the chance to choose the word categories and topics that mean the most to you to include on your very own, custom-made card. And by aspiring to use that card effectively during the game, you will naturally be immersed more and more deeply in your own, personal language learning journey. Take a look at some of my customers’ card commissions below.

 

Shizi Heading Into Language Land Card Commission

This card, Shizi, was made for a customer named Leon, according to his specifications. He hired his own artist to create the artwork, which he sent over to me. And then, I worked closely with him to create the perfect topic, rule text, story text, etc. In the end, Leon received professionally printed copies of the physical game card to use with his Heading Into Language Land game deck, and also, the print-and-play PDF version of the card.

 

 

The artwork for Jalen was created by a customer named JayDonn, using AI. He then sent the artwork over to me, and I worked closely with him to finish the rest. In the end, JayDonn received professionally printed copies of the physical game card to use with his Heading Into Language Land game deck, and also, the print-and-play PDF version of the card.

 

When we create your card commission, not only will you get to choose the word categories, but everything associated with the card, including: the name, card type, power text, story text, and so on. It’s truly a fun endeavor that will motivate you to study your target language! If you’re interested, feel free to email me to learn more at [email protected]. I can answer any questions you might have and share with you more information about the different options available.
