Didn't finish it, I played for half an hour and realized it wasn't really for me. I had trouble deciphering pretty much all the words and I wasn't willing to put in the time to grind it out. The idea with the game is you can't understand what the other character is saying so you have to decipher from context clues and the like. I watched somebody else play it for an hour to get a better idea of how it works and see where I went wrong. For one, even the phrases after you translate are still not proper english, so for example, the people I watched ended up with the prompts "container drink" for a water bottle I think. This makes sense, because I'm pretty sure other languages construct sentences like that, but without knowing that the game would structure sentences like that, I found it hard to get anywhere sadly. This game definitely needed some kind of tutorial or practice prompt at the beginning, you're kinda just dropped into things with no explanation. I might give the game a shot again in the future, because knowing what I know after watching others playing the game helped immensely.
