My opinion is terrible without having played the game, because it is understood that the content is in Spanish and it is not, the app is in Spanish, but the game is in English, my level of English is medium, but when you are in 30 degrees in the sun, you do not feel like translating a game. We only used it for 10 minutes and we gave up. I insist maybe the game is fine, my score is by language when I specified in the purchase through tripadvisor in Spanish
"Gracias por tomarse el tiempo de dejar su comentario. Solo queremos aclarar que en la página del tour está claramente indicado que este producto está disponible únicamente en inglés. Entendemos su frustración, pero no creemos que sea justo valorar negativamente el juego por no haber revisado esa información antes de la compra. Nuestro equipo trabaja para que la descripción sea lo más clara posible y lamentamos que esto le haya causado inconvenientes.
A very fun way to discover Pompeii and see all the main attractions by means of a game, would recommend 100%!
