You're a taxi driver. Your passengers only speak Spanish. ¡Vámonos! The Spanish learning game that's a real arcade game first — no flashcards, no lessons.
Pick up a fare, get your destination in English, then steer through the Spanish word that matches. Miss it and you'll know.
Dodge traffic, topes, tumbleweeds and the occasional lava bomb. You'll be too busy surviving to notice you're studying.
Every correct word earns pesos. Every delivery makes your little green vocho faster. Progress you can feel.
Most Spanish learning games feel like homework with a coat of paint. El Taxico skips the drills entirely.
Words are tied to split-second gameplay decisions — the kind of repetition your brain actually remembers.
Simple enough for kids learning their first Spanish words, fast enough to keep adults chasing high scores.
Search for apps for learning Spanish and you'll find a hundred variations of the same thing: flashcards, streaks and lesson trees. El Taxico is what happens when a Spanish learning game is built by a game developer instead — an arcade driver where the Spanish vocabulary is the road.
It won't replace a full language course. It will do the thing most learn-Spanish apps fail at: make you genuinely want to come back. Whether you're a beginner picking up your first Spanish words, a parent looking for Spanish learning games for kids, or a traveller who wants practical vocabulary before a trip to Mexico — climb in. ¡Vámonos!
El Taxico is designed and built by Adam Lyttle, an indie iOS developer with 40+ apps on the App Store and a YouTube channel documenting the whole journey.
It's a real arcade game that teaches Spanish vocabulary through gameplay — ideal for making practice something you look forward to.
Destinations arrive in English; you steer through the matching Spanish word while dodging obstacles. Correct words earn pesos and upgrades.
