Starting from the original version by Ernst Kuher and Armin Brunnen the project is aimed at reinventing the graphics and the phisical characteristics of the book.
Wir spielen Weltkrieg! A game for learning Italian and German in a fun way.
You already know the rules of memory: find two identical tiles by remembering their position. This educational version changes the purpose of the original game, focusing on language learning. These are the rules: divide the tiles into two groups, those in Italian on one side and those in German on the other, then shuffle the tiles and place them in random order on the table, one group with the text visible and the other with the image visible. Depending on which group shows the text, start by choosing a tile with the image you prefer and once you have read the text of the chosen tile, look for the tile with the corresponding text in the other language. If you have chosen the tile with the correct translation, the images corresponding to the text will be the same!
Once you have matched all the tiles, have fun putting them in order by following the original rhyme in the book “Wir spielen Weltkrieg!”. You can now also read the ordered text in Italian.
